Hard to find, it's well hidden but we got a taxi from near the city centre and it was only 50 zloty (£10) for the return trip (cheaper on the tram but easier in the taxi). Once inside the main building it doesn't look a lot but the good bit hits your eyes as soon as you step through the... More

If you love planes then this museum is worth a visit. Went, unenthusiastic ally, with my husband but must say that I enjoyed it!

Visited there today, since it is free on Tuesdays! I went with tram no 4. Can't remember the name of the stop but it had just three letters, about 6 stops from central krakow . Look for the polytechnic on your left. To get to the museum, cross the road, walk back towards Krakow a little then head to the... More

Visited after a heavy snowfall, so access to the descriptions of some of the outside aircraft was difficult. Nevertheless there is a lot to see, especially ex-NATO and Warsaw Pact military aircraft, and all for an entrance fee of 10 Zlotys, about £2.20. A taxi from the city centre cost me £4. Great value, and recommended for anyone interested in... More

I would definitely recommend a visit to this museum, just a short 5-10 minute tram ride from the city centre. If you are interested in aviation, then this is one of the best museums in Poland to visit. It has many attractions, and the main buildings exhibition is very well put together and interesting. Then there are the large historic... More

Take a tram from the centre of Krakow and after 5 stops and a 5 minute work you arrive at this excellent visitor attraction. It probably helps if you like looking at big lumps of aviation hardware, but if you do you are in for a treat. The place comprises a whole airfield with a large range of old military... More

Just superb if you are at all interested in planes with much material (including a Spitfire) from World War II. Lots of info on the Polish airmen serving in the RAF. Not easy to find - but don't bother with a taxi -very easy to get to on tram No 4 from the centre (5 or 6 stops say) Get... More

This place is not easy to find and not easy to get taxi's from so you are best to arrange for a drop off and collection by the same driver if possible. We allowed 2 hours to get around it all. If your into aviation this is one of the best museums to go to. The collection of World War... More
