Where do I get a taxi from?

The airport taxi rank is located outside the arrivals terminal but only vehicles from the official taxi company (Neptun) that serves the airport are allowed to wait there.

Convenience

Nothing beats jumping into a taxi after a long flight and being dropped off directly at your accommodation. If you are traveling with young children or have a lot of luggage, a taxi will once again be the most convenient on-demand way to get to your accommodation. That said, there may be a wait for a taxi during busy periods. In which case, you may prefer to book a private transfer in advance instead.

Editor’s Note

Great for a convenient travel solution on demand.

Useful Tips

Rogue and unlicensed taxi drivers operate in Gdansk, so always make sure you are using a registered taxi company for your transfers. Official taxis have their company name and telephone number on the doors and the vehicle’s roof.

It is worth asking your driver for a fixed-rate fare as they often quote a better price than a metered transfer.

Taxi rates increase once you leave the city limits. If you plan on taking a long taxi ride, it would be best to negotiate a fixed-rate fare, so you will know exactly what you will be paying for.
