1. GETTING TO PŁOCK:
OPTION 1
By plane to Warsaw Chopin Airport (WAW). The airport is located approx. 10 km from the city
centre, which can be easily accessed by taxi, train or public bus. More information can be found
at: http://www.lotnisko-chopina.pl/en/index.html
A simple and fast way to get to Płock is by one of the minibuses (Modlin Bus/OKbus, EKOBUS
or BARACUDA) departing from the city centre, the MARYMONT underground station or the
Dworzec Zachodni bus/railway station. Bus fares and timetables can be found at:
https://www.modlinbus.pl/en or http://www.ekobus.pl/rozklad-jazdy.html
http://www.baracudabus.pl/rozklad_jazdy.html (BARACUDA minibus reservations - tel: 603
816 783) Please note it is necessary to buy a ticket or make a reservation in advance, especially
for journeys from Friday to Monday!
We recommend using Modlin Bus/ OKbus or EKOBUS minibuses as the
bus stops located in the very centre of Warsaw can be easily accessed and
the tickets can be conveniently bought online in English:

-Another option is the POLSKI BUS line departing from the MŁOCINY underground station – tickets
can be conveniently bought online at: http://www.polskibus.com/en You can also take a MOBILIS
bus departing from the Dworzec Zachodni bus /railway station, the MARYMONT underground
