The transfer from Gdańsk Lech Wałęsa Airport to the Amber Museum covers about 13 km and usually takes 20-30 minutes. The route normally uses the Tricity ring road (S6), the Słowackiego expressway and Aleja Grunwaldzka towards the Old Town, with the final approach to a drop-off zone next to the Great Mill. The address sits in the Old Town (outside Main Town Zone A), so chauffeured access is possible directly in front of the venue.
After landing, your chauffeur meets you in arrivals with a name board, assists with luggage and brings you to the drop-off zone at the Great Mill. The museum entrance is on ul. Wielkie Młyny. For amber enthusiasts we recommend the combined Great Mill + AmberExpo (Amberif) programme during fair days, as well as a visit to amber-jewellery boutiques on ul. Mariacka and Długa. For educational groups we recommend advance booking and coordination with the museum programme.
A transfer to the Amber Museum suits amber-industry professionals, natural-history enthusiasts, guests of the Great Mill + Amber Museum + Amberif Expo (AmberExpo in Letnica) combo, travellers seeking original amber jewellery and participants of Museum of Gdańsk educational programmes. After the visit we arrange pickup from the drop-off zone and transfer to hotels in central Gdańsk, Wrzeszcz or Sopot. The route combines very well with visits to St Mary's Basilica, Długi Targ, the Crane (Żuraw) or the AmberExpo halls during Amberif in March.

The museum is housed in the restored 14th-century Great Mill in the Old Town, outside Main Town Zone A — chauffeured access is possible directly in front of the venue.
