Planning your Polish adventure? Here are some essential tips to ensure your journey is smooth, enriching, and full of memorable moments!

• Best Time to Visit/Weather: For city exploration and coastal areas (Gdansk, Hel), late spring (May-June) and early autumn (September) offer pleasant temperatures. For mountain hiking (Krynica Zdrój), summer (July-August) is best, though spring and autumn offer cooler temperatures and beautiful foliage. Winters can be cold with snow.
• Public Transport: Poland has an excellent public transport network (trains, buses, trams), making inter-city travel and urban exploration very convenient.
• Respect History: When visiting historical sites like Oświęcim, approach with solemnity and respect. Consider a guided tour for a deeper understanding.
• Currency & Language: The local currency is the Polish Złoty (PLN). While English is spoken in tourist areas, learning a few basic Polish phrases is always appreciated.
• Layer Up: Be prepared for varying weather, especially if traveling across different regions (coast to mountains). Layers are always a good idea.

With these tips, you’re all set for an incredible journey through the diverse landscapes and rich history of Poland!
