Car:
Driving in Poland is
no different as
driving in another
European country.
Polish main roads tend to be congested with lorry traffic, so the predominant driving style is quite fast. Foreigners tend to describe it as 'bad and aggressive' but as long as you are mindful on the road, you can drive with no problems.
There are lots of
car rental
places in Poland. You can
make car reservation before,
and pick
up at the
airport or in any chosen
city. Most car rentals
will deliver the car to
you if you make such request.
If you pick up the car at the airport,
you will end up
paying higher taxes.
U.S. and Canadian
driver’s licenses
are honored in Poland
only in conjunction
with an International
Driver’s License,
available at any AAA
office for a fee. For
more information and
office locations in
your town, please
visit the website: www.AAA.com.
You need to have both
driver licenses with
you.
Taxi: Taxi stands are
marked with the TAXI
sign. Taxi can be
booked by phone or in
the hotel. Higher
rates are charged for
travel out of city
limits, on Sundays and
Holidays. A special
night fare is applied
between 10:00 PM and
6:00 AM.
Railroad:
Utilizing an extensive
network of routes and
connections, rail is
by far the most common
and convenient way to
get around Poland.
Furthermore, rail is
an excellent way for a
traveler to reach
major cities and
capitals of Europe.
The EuroCity (EC) and
the InterCity (IC)
trains offer rapid and
regular service
between major points
of interest for the
domestic and foreign
traveler alike.
Complimentary snacks
are served on all IC
trains.
