Fullmax 79 Posted September 5, 2020 In 2017 we hopped on a local bus from Bydgoszcz airport direct to Bydgoszcz Train Station and from there we caught a train direct to Torun. The station at Torun is just on the other side of the Vistula River , a 20 min walk or a 5 minute taxi ride from the town. We paid about £14 for the journey for both of us. For the last 2 years weve driven over but we did catch a train from Torun last year to go to Bydgoszcz to attend a Sunday meeting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Moonfish 16 Posted September 5, 2020 (edited) Thanks for the further advice. If I was on my own I'd probably give the bus/train a go to save a few quid, but with Dad in tow I'm going to opt for the taxi with the added benefit of now knowing to agree a fixed price, roughly how much to expect to pay, and not to get in the drivers seat! Fingers crossed the events can go ahead as planned, and that for anyone else travelling you have a safe and enjoyable trip Edited September 5, 2020 by Moonfish Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fullmax 79 Posted September 7, 2020 (edited) I'm not sure who you booked your hotel/apartment with but we were offered a meet and greet taxi at Bydgoszcz Airport for £66 for up to 4 people to take us to our hotel. This was with Booking.com Edited September 7, 2020 by Fullmax Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fullmax 79 Posted September 7, 2020 Its an easy option though if you want everything sorted before you go and if your a bit wary of jumping into a taxi or catching local buses and trains. It would give you peace of mind knowing that the taxi driver is awaiting at arrivals all pre-paid and knows your destination. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If your happy paying at least double the price good for you. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bruno 1,790 Posted September 7, 2020 Always found taxi drivers ok in Poland money wise, even had one quote me a price and then charge less when we got to our destination. There drivings another thing tho. The price from Bydgoszcz to Torun seemed expensive so we got the bus but journey wasn't too good Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
