Transfert en voiture privée de Krakow à Warsaw

Along the way, you can add optional sightseeing stops and explore attractions like the Discalced Carmelites Monastery and the intriguing Konewka Bunker, which offer insights into World War II history. By delving into Poland's heritage, each stop enriches your adventure before you arrive in Warsaw.

Carry cash to not miss out

Although most Warsaw establishments accept major credit cards, it's wise to bring some Polish zloty (PLN) just in case you want to spend it at one of the many quaint local markets or restaurants that only take cash. There are plenty of ATMs, so you won’t need to look far to find one.

Keep your Polish phrasebook handy

“Dzień dobry!” (that's how you say "Good day" in Polish). You don't need to master the language, but knowing a few key phrases will go a long way. Have a try using "Dziękuję" (Thank you) and "Proszę" (Please/You're welcome). Adding some new travel lingo can really enhance your experience when exploring Poland.
