In Gdansk, it’s your choice! Take an independent boat ride down the Motlawa River, experiencing the historic city of Gdansk from the water side. As you take in the salty-sea views, get a true taste of the local flavor aboard the ship as you relax and take in the coastal views – OR – take a short afternoon tour of Sopot, a town set on the Baltic Sea where you can see the fairy-tale inspired Crooked House and Monte Cassino before enjoying free time for lunch, exploration or a return to Wroclaw to relax.

Hotel-Mercure Grand Warszawa Hotel

History surrounds you in the former Jewish district of Kazimierz. Krakow - once the capital of Poland - is where Jews lived under the protection of Polish kings and is home to the historic Jewish quarter, Kazimierz. The Jewish community developed culture, religion, and even their own educational system during this time. As you walk through Kazimierz in the present, you'll see historic synagogues, stop for photos and an educational talk at the remnants of a World War II ghetto in Podgorze, and even visit the streets where Spielberg filmed his Academy Award-winning movie, "Schindler's List". You will also visit a Jewish cemetery and learn all about the practice of giving "kvitelach" - a note with personal prayers to God - along with kosher traditions.

Travel through the Silesian heartland to the towns of Jawor and Swidnica, home to the "Churches of Peace." You will visit one of these churches whose names are derived from the Peace Accords of Westphalia signed in 1648 which ended the 30 Years War and which permitted Lutherans living in Catholic Silesia to build their own evangelical churches. We will explore the church which has been named a UNESCO World Heritage Site due to its masterful architecture and historical importance. Inside you will be treated to a private organ concert. Afterwards, you will journey to a small village in the heart of the Polish countryside where you will enjoy lunch and a wine tasting.

Discover the 700-year-old Malbork castle, one of the world's largest.

Visit the Jasna Góra monastery to witness the world-famous Black Madonna.

Poland Tours & Vacations

Scenic, historic and surprisingly cheap – Poland should feature on every traveler's list.

The heart of Poland is in a town’s rynek – the central market square where locals converge and travelers can take the temperature of this   European   gem. Beyond city limits, it’s a country blessed by Mother Nature; of forest and lakes, snow-capped peaks and rolling hills changing color with each season. There’s a melting pot of traditional cuisines, hearty and heartfelt food that is being reinvented for a new audience. Wander through Poland’s living history: cultural Krakow, maritime mecca Gdansk and the post-war rebuilt capital of Warsaw. Every adventure here is distinct, but one thing remains the same – this under-discovered nation that’s eager to be explored.

Culture and customs.

Despite Poland’s turbulent political and wartime past, traditional Polish culture and customs thrive throughout the country. More than three quarters of Poles are Roman Catholics – almost half of whom are regular church attendees. There’s still a Jewish influence, including buildings and symbolism, here too. Many of Poland’s public holidays follow the Roman Catholic calendar, and Christmas and Easter are big festive celebrations.

On important occasions – including folk festivals, weddings, religious holidays – traditional folk costumes called stroje ludowe are worn, The costumes represent different regions of Poland, with colorful fabrics, patterns and decorations.

Some of Poland’s customs and traditions are a little bit unusual, so if you find yourself near a burning effigy on the first day of spring or struck by a water balloon around Easter, don’t worry, it’s all part of bonding with the locals.

Much of Poland’s culture is reflected in its architecture, so a walk along the cobbled streets of Krakow or Warsaw will reveal both history and local charm at building-level.

Top 5 heritage spots of Krakow

• Collegium Maius This 15th-century building, the oldest in Jagiellonian University, has hosted such famous students as revolutionary astronomer Copernicus and spiritual leader Pope John Paul II. A visit here is an object lesson in art, science, history and architecture.
• Wawel Cathedral Over a thousand years old, this imposing edifice is where Pope John Paul II conducted his first Mass. If that's not impressive enough, add a crypt holding the bodies of some of Poland's most influential leaders and public figures, and you've got one of Poland's most interesting buildings.
• Wawel Royal Castle Sitting on the edge of the Vistula River, this remarkable Gothic-style building acted as a home for Poland's royal family centuries ago. Featuring a valuable collection of historic paintings, tapestries and murals, this is a top spot to delve into European treasures and classic architecture.
• Remuh Synagogue While this small, elegant synagogue may not be the grandest in scale or design, its historic value is unquestionable. Founded in 1553, it remains a place of worship for the local community and a place of pilgrimage for the world's Jewish people.
• Cloth Hall Krakow's Renaissance-style Cloth Hall is a splendid building with a retail heritage. Once used as trading post for textiles and cloth in the 14th century, nowadays the building houses shops, cafes and a museum. Visit the city's Main Square at night to see this historic piece of architecture lit up.

History and government

Polan to poland.

During the Early Middle Ages, pre-Slavic settlers made their way to what was then East Germania, prospering during the Iron Age. However, it was the Western Polans who dominated the region from the fifth to eighth centuries and gave Poland its name.

Making friends, and losing them

The first Polish state was established in the late 10th century AD, and in 1025 the Kingdom of Poland was founded. In the 13th century, tensions between pagan Prussians and the central powers saw German knights dominate northern Poland and construct fortress strongholds, including the epic castle at Malbork.

Peace was restored, and in 1569 this region became the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. At the time, it was one of the largest countries in Europe. The 18th century saw this relationship weaken, so an effort was made to reform, but it was too little, too late. Poland was already being invaded from all sides by Russia. Poland continued to exist as a political and cultural community, despite Russian efforts to suppress education and commerce. Although no Polish states existed from the 1790s until 1918, strong resistance movements operated.

Stuck in the firing line

In the 20th century, Poland was forced into battle with occupying forces. Central Powers (Austria-Hungary, Germany and Prussia) and Russia (plus Western Allies) fought World War I, with conflicts occurring on Polish soil. Since no Polish state existed, no one was fighting for Poland – they were conscripted by both sides and fought one another. An estimated one million Poles lost their lives, but amid this loss, Poland regained independence and began to rebuild. The Treaty of Versailles in 1919 awarded Poland the western part of Prussia.

A nonaggression pact between Germany and the Soviet Union was signed in August 1939, but little did Poland know that this also contained protocol to split the Polish state in two. Weeks later, World War II began with a massive German invasion of Poland. Hitler’s policy was to eradicate Poland, with almost three million Jews and one million Poles perishing in German extermination camps.

The War changed dramatically in June 1941 when Hitler attacked the Soviet Union and Soviet leader Joseph Stalin turning to Poland for help. The Soviet army moved westward, and with Hitler’s defeat at Stalingrad in 1943, the war was all but over. Poland lay in ruins, with six million people, or 20% of the pre-war population losing their lives. The Polish Jewish community declined from three million to less than 90,000. Soviet control continued in Poland, with new borders established and a government set up in 1945. Soon after Stalin died in 1953, the ‘Sovietization’ of Poland weakened until it was almost non-existent. Traditional Polish values began to be revived.

Power to the people

During the second half of the 20th century, dissatisfied with living and working conditions in the country, Polish workers began to organize and unite. Industrial action, including strikes, led to the formation of a national trade union movement called Solidarity who pushed for workers’ rights and democratic governance. But it took until 1989 for semi-free elections to be held in Poland, when Solidarity succeeded in controlling the Senat (upper house). Communism began to collapse, and in January 1990, Poland’s political system was reformed with a return to territorial self-governance. Political instability followed, but in 1997, an alliance of Solidarity-linked political parties formed a coalition, putting an end to communist rule.

Today, Poland still finds itself in testing times politically and economically, with nationalist voices louder than ever. But the nation has been shaped into a peaceful and resilient nation by the toughest of situations.

Eating and drinking

Poland’s cuisine is a unique blend of influences from its neighbors, regional traditions and times of flourishing trade followed by years of restricted imports. Varied and versatile, it certainly is. Be sure to offer a ‘na zdrowie’ when raising a glass and wish everyone ‘smacznego’ – the Polish ‘bon appetit’ – before tucking into your food.

Here are some hearty essentials to keep a look out for when traveling around Poland.

• Pierogi What’s a country without its version of a dumpling? Pierogi are found all across Central and Eastern Europe, but many assert Poland is the birthplace of this interpretation. These meat, potato, onion and cheese-filled morsels will warm you up on even the coldest of Krakow evenings.
• Bigos Bigos is a stew of mixed chopped meat, sauerkraut and fresh cabbage, other vegetables and spices all together in a large cast iron pan. Known as hunter’s stew, it originated in Medieval times and is as hearty as it gets.
• Rosol This one’s a Polish staple, the most popular version of which is a comforting chicken noodle soup, not just an antidote for the common cold but also for the dreaded (and also common – see number 10 on this list!) hangover. The meat is slowly cooked in a classic clear broth before thin noodles, sliced vegetables and a garnish of herbs are added.
• Barszcz czerwony Poland may have a convoluted name for it, but their version of borscht is simply delicious. It’s a sour soup with a vibrant purple color, coming from its key ingredient – beetroot. Traditionally served on Christmas Eve, it’s probably wise not to wear white while you slurp a bowl of it up.
• Kanapki Take out a ‘k’ and you’ve nearly got the word canape. Funny that, because these open sandwiches resemble that bite-sized evening snack, but aren’t always that bite-sized. Poles have an open sandwich obsession, so they’re an option for every meal, usually with a bottom layer of pate or spread, topped with meat or pickled vegetables and boiled egg slices to top it off.
• Kopytka Europeans know what’s up with food, and definitely know how to prepare a potato. Kopytka is a Polish take on Italian gnocchi, and is often sautéed in a pan for a crispy outer layer, then sprinkled with fried onions and bacon bits.
• Golabki Another European dish Poland has added its own twist to is the saucy golabki. It’s the Polish name for cabbage leaves wrapped around a filling of minced pork or beef, plus onions and rice (or barley). They’re a special occasion food, often served at Christmas and weddings, but we reckon they’re good enough to have all year round.
• Paczki It’s not a fun cuisine if there isn’t a donut thrown into the mix. Paczki is a fried, round dough covered with icing sugar or dried orange zest or glazed, with sweet fillings including jam, cream and custard. If they’re not filled and are ring-shaped, these Polish delights are known as oponki.
• Sernik Poland’s version of a cheesecake is a simple dessert made with a dry-curd ‘farmer’s’ cheese (similar to cottage cheese or quark), and usually without a bottom layer of biscuit. It’s baked for around an hour and comes out set but still moist, to be enjoyed with a dollop of plum jam and cream. A modern version using American-style cream cheese is referred to as Sernik Philadelphia!
• Beer This is mainly a food list, but it’s hard to leave this beverage off. Beer is abundant in Poland, with around a hundred craft breweries producing distinctive brews, and they’re usually dirt cheap. The most popular varieties are pilsners, pale ales and porters, and the top brands to look out for are Zywiec, Okocim and Tyskie. Pair a local ale with a plate of pierogi.

Geography and environment

Located in Central Europe, Poland shares borders with   Germany ,   Czech Republic ,   Slovakia ,   Ukraine ,   Belarus ,   Lithuania , and   Russia  (Kaliningrad). Poland also has a stretch of coastline along the Baltic Sea, featuring two natural harbours. The coastal regions are marked by dunes and lakes, while the north and central parts of Poland have lowlands and plains, interrupted by rivers and valleys. Segments of the Carpathian Mountains mark the south-east part of the country, while the Tatra Mountains act as a natural border between Poland and Slovakia.

Around 90 percent of the country sits less than 1000 feet above sea level, but the south has mountains that bring with them relatively cold winters. The northern reaches of Poland are graced with sandy beaches stretching out to the Baltic Sea, as well as the Masurian Lakes District – an area with over 2000 lakes dotted through dense forest. Storks, eagles, bison and wolves are all found in the 23 national parks around Poland, and much of the flora and fauna in the country is under natural protection.

From local wares and crafts in town ryneks to global brands in malls dotted around the cities, Poland’s got all the shopping you need. The main places to shop in Krakow are Shevska, Florianskaya and Grodskaya streets. In Warsaw, Plac Trzech Krzyzy (Three Crosses Square), Mokotowska Street and the Old Town all offer a wide range of places to shop.

In recent years, Poland has implemented a restriction on Sunday shopping trading on almost all stores for all but seven Sundays in the year (exceptions are those which fall before Easter and Christmas periods). There are also some exceptions for certain types of stores and those located in airports and train stations. Keeping this in mind is important when considering travel plans in Poland, as you may not be able to find what you’re looking for if traveling on a Sunday.

As with most countries, Poland adds a goods and services tax to many of its products. Poland’s VAT (PTU in Polish) is calculated at 23%, 8% or 5% depending on the type of product, and is normally included in the marked price.

Festivals and events

Alongside the major religious and cultural celebrations in Poland, this Central European nation gets together and celebrates in a whole range of ways. And some of them are pretty unusual.

Drowning of Marzanna

Marzanna is the Slavic goddess associated with death and rebirth. Traditionally, in early spring (around Easter), a straw effigy of Marzanna is ritually burned and ‘drowned’ as an offering to ward off death (aka winter) and welcome in the new season. These days, Marzanna is carried past every house in a village and dipped in each puddle or stream she passes. Superstitions still persist with Marzanna: if you touch the effigy once it’s in the water, your hand will wither; looking back at the drowning effigy when walking home may cause an illness; and stumbling or falling may lead to a relative’s death in the next year.

Smigus-dyngus

Traditionally held on Easter Monday in Poland, Smigus-dyngus – roughly translated as ‘Wet Monday’ – involves boys throwing water at girls, using water balloons, pistols or buckets. In return, girls provide a ‘ransom’ of painted eggs, or pisanki, which brings good fortune and harvests. In reality, it’s a big water fight with everyone getting involved.

Calling all higher education students: this festival is for you. Juwenalia is an annual holiday for students that takes place before summer exams in May or June, celebrating three days of no lectures. The tradition started in the 15th century in Krakow, but now most universities in Poland organize their own Juwenalia, usually with some type of music festival attached to it.

Also known as the Midsummer Solstice festival, this event held annually in Krakow involves telling fortunes, floating handmade wreaths, jumping over bonfires and burning herbs. Wianki began as a Slavic fertility festival honoring the goddess of harvest and love – Kupala – but when Christianity came to Poland, efforts were made to ‘Christianize’ the pagan rites and rebrand the holiday as St John’s Eve. Despite this, Wianki celebrations today are pretty similar to traditional summer solstice festivities.

St Dominic’s Fair

Started in 1260, this outdoor festival in Gdansk has become one of Europe’s biggest open-air trade and cultural festivals. From mid-July to mid-August, the fair hosts 20 days of markets, music and theatre, Kashubian food, a strongman competition and a fireworks display at the closing ceremony. All the ingredients for a Polish spectacular.

Poland travel FAQs

Do i need a covid-19 vaccine to join an intrepid trip.

Trips from 1 January 2023 onwards

From 1 January 2023, Intrepid will no longer require travelers to provide proof of vaccination against COVID-19 (excluding all Polar trips and select adventure cruises).

However, we continue to strongly recommend that all Intrepid travelers and leaders get vaccinated to protect themselves and others.

Specific proof of testing or vaccination may still be required by your destination or airline. Please ensure you check travel and entry requirements carefully.

When is the best time to visit Poland?

Poland offers travelers different experiences depending on the season, so pack sensibly and choose your adventure.

Late June to August offers the warmest temperatures and long days but tourist numbers are high, the heat can sometimes be quite intense, and thunderstorms are surprisingly common in the mountainous areas.

The shoulder season of April-May is a great time to visit Poland – long hours of sunlight, cooler temperatures and spring flowers in full bloom. The autumn months of September and October offer beautiful scenery, leaves changing color and average temperatures around 53°F during the day.

If snow sports are your thing, head to southern Poland, particularly Zakopane, in late December and early January for a winter wonderland and mountain resorts in full swing. Poland is a charming place to visit in Christmas, with winter markets, decorations along the city streets, outdoor nativity scenes and carolers singing at night.

Do I need a visa to travel to Poland?

Generally, you will not need a visa to travel to Poland for a period of up to 90 days. Citizens of Australia, New Zealand, USA, Canada, Japan and many other countries can spend 90 days in the wider Schengen area, including Poland and other countries in the EU. EU citizens can travel around the Schengen area indefinitely.

Other nationalities should check with their local Polish embassy or on the   Polish Ministry of Foreign Affairs website .

Visas are the responsibility of the individual traveler. Entry requirements can change at any time, so it's important that you check for the latest information. Please visit the relevant consular website of the country or countries you’re visiting for detailed and up-to-date visa information specific to your nationality. Check the Essential Trip Information section of your tour itinerary for more information.

Is tipping customary in Poland?

While not mandatory, a tip of around 10–15% is considered a polite recognition of good service in Polish restaurants and cafes. Tipping service workers in high-end establishments such as luxury hotels is also encouraged.

At smaller establishments or when taking a taxi it’s acceptable to round up to the nearest PLN 5 or 10.

What is the internet access like in Poland?

Poland is very well connected – most hotels, hostels and some public spaces offer wi-fi (pronounced ‘vee-fee’), usually free of charge but sometimes for a small fee. Many bars, cafes and restaurants also offer wi-fi, so keep a look out for the international symbol for wi-fi.

Major cities like Warsaw have many wi-fi hotspots and cyber cafes to choose from, while rural areas will generally have less reliable options to get online.

Can I use my cell phone while in Poland?

Cell phone coverage is generally very good in Poland. Poland uses the GSM 900/1800 system, which is the same as Europe, Australia and New Zealand. Cell networks are usually not compatible with cellphones from North America or Japan; however, if you’ve got a multiband GSM system, it should work.

If your cell phone is unlocked, your cheapest option to call and text on the go is probably with a local SIM card. These can be picked up from a phone shop, which are located all throughout the country. This is also likely the cheapest option for a mobile data plan in Poland.

If you wish to use your current SIM and phone plan in Poland, ensure global roaming is activated before you arrive, and be sure to check in with your service provider for costs, as often this can be extremely expensive.

What are the toilets like in Poland?

Flushable toilets are the standard in Poland, although public toilets are quite scarce. Public toilets are labelled with ‘dla panow’ or ‘meski’ and a downward-pointing triangle symbol for men, and ‘dla pan’ or ‘damski’ and a circle symbol for women.

Expect to pay a small fee when visiting public toilets (around PLN 2) and carry small denominations with you, as change is often not available.

What will it cost for a…?

Poland’s unit of currency is the zloty (PLN). Prices here are approximate and shown in US dollars for ease of comparison.

• A bottle of beer = USD 1.30–2.60
• Cup of coffee in a cafe = USD 1.30–2.60
• Simple lunch at a cafe = USD 4–7
• Dinner at a nice restaurant = USD 13–26

Can I drink the water in Poland?

Tap water is considered safe to drink in Poland unless marked otherwise.

For environmental reasons, try to avoid buying bottled water. Fill a reusable water bottle or canteen with filtered water instead.

Are credit cards widely accepted in Poland?

Major credit cards are widely accepted by stores and hotels in Poland. Smaller cafes and shops may not accept credit cards, so ensure you carry enough cash to cover minor purchases. It’s also a good idea to carry small change to make tipping easier and to cover public toilet charges.

What is ATM access like in Poland?

ATMs that accept international cards are common in Poland, so finding one won't be a problem in most towns and cities. Our tip is to go for internationally recognized banks and avoid ATMs labelled ‘Euronet’, as these often give a much poorer rate of exchange than other banks’ machines.

What is the weather like in Poland?

Poland’s climate is mostly temperate, with some slight weather differences between the oceanic north and the landlocked south. July is Poland’s hottest month, averaging around 72°F (22°C) throughout the country, with some temperatures rising to the mid-80s Fahrenheit, especially in Lower Silesia (southwest Poland).

Winters are often drier than summer, and range between 21°F (-6°C) and 33°F (1°C), with the northeast of the country near the borders with   Belarus  and   Lithuania  experiencing the coldest temperatures. Snow can be found around Poland in the depths of winter, usually in January.

What public holidays are celebrated in Poland?

• 1 January   Nowy Rok (New Year's Day)
• 6 January   Epiphany (Three Kings’ Day)
• March/April   Easter Sunday
• March/April   Easter Monday
• 1 May   Labour Day (State Holiday)
• 3 May   Swieto Trzeciego Maja (Constitution Day)
• 11 November   Narodowe Swieto Niepodleglosci (Independence Day)
• 25 December   Christmas Day
• 26 December   St Stephen’s Day (Second Day of Christmas)

For a current list of public holidays in Poland, including the movable dates above and other religious holidays, go to   worldtravelguide.net

Is Poland safe for LGBTQIA+ travellers?

Homosexuality is legal in Poland, and in major cities like Warsaw and Krakow there is generally a liberal attitude towards LGBTQIA+ communities. That being said, the wider LGBTQIA+ scene in Poland is fairly discreet. Warsaw and Krakow are the best places to experience Poland’s gay scene, with a small number of bars and clubs dotted around the city. The seaside resort city of Sopot also has a number of gay bars and clubs. Same-sex marriage is not officially recognized in Poland.

Recently, with the rise of the ruling far-right Law & Justice (PiS) party in the Polish political system, anti-LGBTQIA+ sentiments in Poland have grown. Many Polish residents hold conservative and religious views, which are reflected in much of the current political discourse. While in most contexts there’s equality of legal rights for all residents regardless of sexuality or gender identity, there are still no protections against discrimination in education and health, hate crimes and hate speech.

Around 30 symbolic ‘LGBT-free’ zones have been declared in the south-eastern reaches of the country, and although unenforceable, these zones are said to represent a move to stigmatize and exclude LGBTQIA+ residents in rural parts of Poland.

For more detailed and up-to-date advice, we recommend visiting   Equaldex   or   ILGA   before you travel.

If you are traveling solo on an Intrepid group tour, you will share accommodation with a passenger of the same gender as per your passport information. If you don’t identify with the gender assigned on your passport, please let us know at time of booking and we’ll arrange the rooming configuration accordingly. A single supplement is available on some tours for travelers who do not wish to share a room.

Is Poland accessible for travelers with disabilities?

As Poland has many medieval towns and cobbled lanes, travelers with mobility issues may find traveling difficult, but doable. Newer buildings are designed with accessibility in mind, and many popular older buildings are retrofitted with ramps, lifts and wider entrances. Poland’s public transport system is designed to accommodate wheelchairs.

Intrepid is committed to making travel widely accessible, regardless of ability or disability. That’s why we do our best to help as many people see the world as possible, regardless of any physical or mental limitations they might have. We’re always happy to talk to travelers with disabilities and see if we can help guide them towards the most suitable itinerary for their needs and where possible, make reasonable adjustments to our itineraries.

If you do live with a visual, hearing or other impairment, let your booking agent or group leader know early on so they’re aware and suitable arrangements can be made. As a general rule, knowing some common words in the local language, carrying a written itinerary with you and taking to the streets in a group, rather than solo, can help make your travel experience the best it can be.

What to wear in Poland

What you should wear in Poland will depend on what season you decide to travel! Poland’s mild climate and distinct seasons make it a little bit easier to know what to wear, so check out the weather in advance to get an idea of what to pack.

In summer, be sure to stay cool with looser clothing and some short sleeve t-shirts and shorts, plus a light sweater or jacket for cooler evenings. In winter (as well as the shoulder seasons), pack some extra warmth, long pants and wind-breaking outer layers. If you’re traveling to Poland in snow season, pack thermal layers and insulated jackets. Gloves (or mittens) and a beanie will also come in handy.

Depending on the adventure you’re after, you’re likely to do a lot of walking, so a pair of sturdy walking shoes is a must. You might also like to pack a smaller backpack or satchel to use as a day pack when traveling around Krakow or Warsaw.

Do I need to purchase travel insurance before traveling?

Absolutely. All passengers traveling with Intrepid are required to purchase travel insurance before the start of their trip. Your travel insurance details will be recorded by your leader on the first day of the trip. Due to the varying nature, availability and cost of health care around the world, travel insurance is very much an essential and necessary part of every journey.

Chopin’s music, the quintessence of Polish romanticism

Morning: Independent arrivals to Warsaw hotel.

Afternoon & Evening: Approx. at 4.00pm meet and greet with your tour leader and the other travelers at the hotel lobby. Following a short introduction, you will have a walk to the Old Town. Painstakingly rebuilt from scratch after WW II; it enjoys its place on the UNESCO World Heritage List. On the way visit the Church of the Holy Cross . There, inside an urn lies Chopin’s heart, brought home in 1849 by his sister. “ For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also” , reads the biblical passage inscribed on a pillar. Welcome evening with Chopin’s music . Enter the world of Chopin’s brilliant creations, which have earned for him his title of a Poet Of The Piano. Warsaw is where Chopin developed his talent for almost twenty years. Then, taste culinary goodies during welcome dinner.

Visit the capital of Poland

Morning: Warsaw proudly wears its epic history. The city has been a reference point for many renowned film producers, a notable example being ‘The Pianist’ by Roman Polanski . This WWII Holocaust drama showcases human resilience and the beauty and power of music in overcoming adversity. It tells the true story of Wladyslaw Szpilman , an eminent Polish-Jewish concert pianist and composer, and his unlikely survival under German Nazi occupation in Warsaw. The film, winning three Academy Awards in 2003 , is a testament to this history.

A half-day guided city tour will showcase the best of fascinating Warsaw : its vibrant downtown, the historical Jewish Ghetto area, the elegant Royal Route, and the ever-appealing Lazienki Park. The alleys of the city’s lush green heart, a legacy of King Stanisław August, lead to picturesque buildings, ponds, the enchanting Palace on the Island, and the Chopin Statue. This statue captures the composer seated by a willow tree, his hand poised over piano keys, merging art and nature.

Afternoon & Evening: The remainder of the day is free time to explore on your own. Your tour escort will be happy to offer suggestions. Overnight in Warsaw.

Mazury - Land of a thousand lakes

Morning: On this touring day, you will explore the diverse cultural tapestry of Eastern Poland in Bialystok , a city renowned for its multicultural heritage. This vibrant mix of ethnicities and religions inspired Ludwik Zamenhoff to create Esperanto , the universal language of peace. Visit the Ludwik Zamenhof Centre to discover an intriguing exhibition about Bialystok during Zamenhoff’s time, complete with a mini dictionary that introduces a few Esperanto words and phrases. A guided walk through Bialystok will also feature sights like the L.Zamenhoff monument and mural, the splendid Branicki Palace , and the main Orthodox church – the Cathedral of St. Nicholas , all viewed from the outside.

At lunch, indulge in the culinary delights of the eastern province, celebrated for centuries. The cuisine of Podlasie, one of Poland’s most cherished regional foods, offers a unique blend of Polish, Lithuanian, Jewish, Belarusian, and Tatar influences , reflecting the area’s rich cultural mosaic.

Afternoon: The drive will continue then to the  Masurian Lake district , an area of outstanding natural beauty with almost 3,000 lovely lakes.

Upon arrival in Gizycko , an important holiday center in the lakeland, you’ll have free time to explore this natural paradise and its fantastic little town. Not-to-be-missed sights include the Boyen Fortress, the unique swing bridge, a neo-classical Evangelical church, the Teutonic castle, and several other churches. Additionally, there are numerous spots to sit back, relax, and take in the charming views.

Evening Overnight stay in  Gizycko   castle  converted into an elegant hotel.

Wolf's Lair

Morning: In the morning, we’ll head to the heart of the Masurian forests to visit the brooding ruins of Hitler’s wartime headquarters . This site, where Hitler commanded German military operations from 1941 to 1944, is steeped in history. It’s notably recognized as the location of the famous 1944 assassination attempt against Hitler, an event depicted in the film ‘Valkyrie’.

Afternoon: Have a realaxing afternoon.

Evening: Free time. Second overnight stay in Gizycko.

From engineering marvels to Medieval might

Morning: We begin the day with a drive to Buczyniec, where a marvel of water engineering awaits you for an unmissable journey! Experience the magic of human invention as you ride a boat that navigates both uphill and downhill, traversing water and dry land. Witness the wonder of 19th-century technology with the Elbląg-Ostróda Canal, where waterways are ingeniously linked with rail tracks, and are still operational today. This unique feature is unparalleled anywhere else! Prepare for an unforgettable adventure through the pristine wetlands.

Afternoon: Arrive at Malbork , home to the largest medieval castle in Europe! Constructed in the late 13th century, it served as the residence of the Grand Masters of the Teutonic Order. This imposing red-brick fortress, in fact, comprises three castles and is rightly listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site .

For dinner, savor a meal rich in history at ‘The Small Dutchman’ . Nestled in a beautifully restored, arcaded Mennonite House in Zelichowo, this restaurant offers a cuisine inspired by the intertwined histories of Slavs, Prussians, Teutonic Knights, and Mennonites.

Evening: Drive to  Gdansk . Check in to a comfortable hotel. Overnight stay.

Gdansk city tour

Gdansk, known as the city of freedom and the capital of amber , changed the world twice in the 20th century. This bursting with color, millennium-old city on the Baltic Coast, a gem of the Hanseatic League, is renowned for its rich cultural diversity, iconic harbor fronts, and the Shipyard that gained global attention. Gdansk’s history is a roller coaster of emotions, from the first shots of World War II in Europe to the symbol of European peace revolution: Solidarity .

En route to Oliwa, we’ll make a photo stop at the famous Gdansk Shipyard , originally named Lenin Shipyard, the cradle of the Solidarity movement led by Lech Walesa. In Oliwa, marvel at the grandeur of the organ in the beautiful 13th-century cathedral.

Europe’s longest wooden pier & Torun – Gothic heaven

Afternoon: Upon your arrival in Torun, lunch at a local restaurant.

Torun is one of Poland’s most interesting and best preserved historic cities. This easily walkable city is filled with delightful architectural surprises: a decorative frieze here, a stained-glass window there. During our visit, we’ll experience the taste of gingerbread , Torun’s most famous culinary delight, and visit the birthplace of Nicolaus Copernicus , the renowned astronomer who revolutionized our understanding of the cosmos. Afterwards, you’ll have free time to explore the lovely streets of Torun at your own pace.

Overnight stay in Torun.

Wroclaw city tour

Morning: Next up on our adventure is Wroclaw , the historic jewel of Lower Silesia that celebrated a thousand years of history back in 2000. This charming city, with its stunning Gothic architecture and beautiful canals , has earned the nickname ‘Venice of the North.’

Afternoon We’ll be taking a leisurely guided walk through the enchanting streets of Wroclaw’s Old Town and the magical Ostrow Tumski , a real treat for anyone who loves the grandeur of Gothic style. And keep your eyes peeled for a bit of whimsy – the city is dotted with playful dwarfs hiding in nooks and crannies, just waiting to be discovered by observant visitors like us.

Evening: Have a relaxing remainder of the day. Overnight stay in Wroclaw.

The Church of Peace & one-of-a-kind world-class glass art

Morning: This day will immerse you in local communities, offering opportunities for  discovery, learning, and inspiration .

In  Tomaszów Bolesławiecki , you will celebrate the myriad talents of Polish artists – the Borowski Family. They masterfully craft glass into  fabulous indoor and outdoor objects . Their unique style, passion for color, and superb design have gained international acclaim. Stanislaw Borowski, a prominent figure in the European studio glass movement of the late 1970s, founded the company and has passed this artistic legacy to his three sons. You will gain insights into each step of the glass-crafting process. Subsequently, you will explore  the UNESCO-listed Church of Peace  in Jawor.

Afternoon: For lunch, savor flavorful, healthy, locally sourced cuisine at the Villa Greta guesthouse. The enchanting village of  Dobków , where it is situated, was honored with the European Award for Rural Development and Village Renewal in 2017. Here, life moves at a leisurely pace, allowing you to truly unwind. Adding to its allure, Dobków lies in the heart of Poland’s astonishing, lesser-known Land of the Dormant Volcanoes.

Evening: Free time. Overnight stay in Wroclaw hotel.

Auschwitz-Birkenau: a day of reflection

Morning: Today, we embark on a journey that is profoundly different and deeply moving. Located in eastern Silesia, near Oswiecim, are the somber sites of the former German Nazi death camps: Auschwitz I, now a museum, and Auschwitz II-Birkenau . These places, integral to the Holocaust Memorial, stand preserved as a stark reminder to ensure that one of the darkest chapters in human history is never forgotten. Our visit to these sites will be a moment of solemn reflection on the events that occurred there.

Afternoon: After lunch, we continue south to  Zakopane , the main and picture-perfect resort of the Tatra Mountains.

Dunajec Raft Trip & Wieliczka Salt Mine

Morning: We start the day with a very gentle raft ride on the Dunajec River winding through the extremely beautiful Pieniny gorges. The two-hour excursion, which covers about 15 km, beginning in Sromowce and ending in Szczawnica, is an unforgettable experience. Afternoon: On the way to Krakow we will visit the amazing Wieliczka Salt Mine – a labyrinth of corridors, splendid halls and a chapel hewn in rock salt more than 100 meters under the ground. Listed by UNESCO as a World Cultural Heritage sight, this is Poland’s most unique and fun historic monument. Evening: Overnight in Krakow.

Krakow – The royal capital

Morning & afternoon: Krakow’s vibrant academic atmosphere fosters meaningful conversations. We will take a break from exploring to relax at the atmospheric Cheder Café, opened in a former prayer house. It’s the perfect setting to sit down with Robert Gadek, Deputy Director of the Jewish Culture Festival , one of the city’s premier events. You’ll have the opportunity to discuss the festival’s impact, as well as the ongoing dialogue and shared memories between Poles and Jews. Next, we’ll visit the Remuh Synagogue and its adjoining cemetery. After hearing the famous Hejnal trumpet signal , we’ll enter St. Mary’s Basilica to admire the largest Gothic altar in Europe .

During the day, we’ll also enjoy a leisurely walking tour of the legendary Wawel Castle , including the Cathedral and the Belfry. As the historical seat of Polish monarchs, each authentic brick of the castle exudes royal grandeur, unlike the reconstructed facades of Warsaw.

After the day’s sightseeing, you’ll have free time for personal exploration. Alternatively, you can join your tour leader for a stroll to a local shop renowned for Polish pottery, a perfect opportunity to pick up some unique souvenirs .

Moscow: City Sightseeing by Car/Bus

• Description
• Choose date

Visiting a new city is akin to going on a first date, it is something you will never forget. Many people imagine Moscow as just a bunch of sporadic landmarks: Red Square, the Kremlin, Lenin’s Mausoleum and GUM. There is so much more to this wonderful city than that and even though we only have a few hours, we will do all we can to show you everything we know and love about our capital in one fell swoop. We will take you on a journey through the ages, from centuries ago, right up to the modern day, soaking in the sights of this vast and bustling metropolis. Bright, luxurious and both ancient and modern at the same time, Moscow invites you on a date you’ll never forget!

On our sightseeing bus tour of the city, you will see:

• The wonderfully historic city centre and its unique museums, magnificent cathedrals, the exquisite Chambers of the Romanov Boyars and of course, the famous towering red brick walls of the Kremlin, The charming beauty of the Alexander Garden awaits the capital's guests - a lush green oasis in the midst of the glass and concrete clad metropolis, basking in the etherial aura emanating from the whitewashed stone walls of the restored Cathedral of Christ the Saviour, the world- renowned fairytale onion domes of St. Basil's Cathedral and other impressive monumental buildings such as the library built in Lenin's honour - the Russian State Library - and the State Duma.
• The Lubyanka KGB headquarters is notorious to members of older generations and although nowadays, the face of the secret police has changed dramatically, the looming enigmatic building on the waterfront maintains its aura of mystery, shrouded in a variety of murky rumours and dark myths. Then, there’s another of Moscow's main attractions - the marvellous Bolshoi Theatre, yew simply cant leave Moscow without taking in its breathtaking architecture. Engrained in the fabric of Russia's cultural heritage, virtuoso performers such as prima ballerina Galina Ulanova, opera singer Feodor Chaliapin and pianist, composer and conductor Sergei Rachmaninoff once stood centre stage of this vaunted institution.
• The memorial complex on Poklonnaya Hill was constructed in the glory and honour of our heroes who defended our nation in the many crucial battles of the Great Patriotic War (WWII). This is a place that embodies a particularly acute and inextricable link between older ancf younger generations. Moving on to the Moscow International Business Centre, not dubbed ‘Moscow City' for nothing, a true glimpse of the future in the present. This incredible, rather jaw-dropping project in the capital has shown that Moscow has come to accept the age of the skyscraper. Finally, the stunning views from the observation deck at Sparrow Hills will leave professional and amateur photographers alike itching to capture them. How could one resist?

The most beautiful of all the world's cities - lady Moscow invites you out on a date!

One dead, 11 others injured after shuttle bus plows into group near Honolulu cruise port

HONOLULU (HawaiiNewsNow) - One person is dead and 11 others were injured Friday when a shuttle bus driver dropping off passengers near a Honolulu cruise ship terminal hit the gas instead of the brake, pinning several people against concrete barriers, first responders said.

Honolulu EMS said a 68-year-old woman was taken to a hospital in critical condition, and police traffic investigators confirmed she later died. There were four others who were seriously injured: A 67-year-old man, a 67-year-old woman, a 55-year-old woman and a 58-year-old man.

The Visitor Aloha Society of Hawaii said the woman who died and the four others who were seriously injured are from Illinois, and that they are being offered assistance.

Additionally, a man in his 70s was taken to the hospital in stable condition while six other adults, ranging in age from their 40s to their 70s, suffered minor injures and declined transport.

Multiple EMS units with paramedics and EMTs responded to the scene at Pier 2 about 10:20 a.m.

Honolulu police said the incident happened in a private parking lot when a 57-year-old driver dropping people off and picking others up was notified that his vehicle was moving forward. He jumped into the driver’s seat to stop it, but pressed the gas pedal instead of the brakes.

Florida ER nurse Janet Lightfoot, on a cruise with her mom, jumped into action to help.

The two had just disembarked Friday morning and were waiting for a shuttle to go shopping when they saw a bus with a Hilo Hatties logo heading toward a crowd of people.

“Somebody screamed, and then I looked over and the bus hit into the crowd,” she said.

“It just kept going until it hit the wall there. Big cement block was pushed out and the bus hit into the wall. I ran over and kind of started triaging people and trying to help.”

Lightfoot said she’s accustomed to seeing traumatic injuries, but “this is just different.”

“We’re on vacation. The husband of one of the family members was there and just sad.”

Bystanders said the chaotic scene unfolded in seconds.

“It was shocking,” said witness Mike Frost.

Added Linda Reck, also visiting from Florida, “It just kept going and and my daughter yells out, ‘There’s nobody driving the bus.’ And then poof, it hits the wall.”

Honolulu police said it’s unknown if drugs or alcohol are factors in the crash.

Carnival Miracle issued the following statement about the incident:

Nine Carnival Miracle guests were hit by a shuttle bus in the transportation area outside the Honolulu cruise terminal on Friday morning, April 12. Sadly, one guest has died from her injuries. She was traveling with her husband, who was also injured and is expected to recover. Members of the Carnival Care Team are assisting the guests. Our thoughts are with the guests affected and their loved ones. Carnival Miracle is on a 15-day Carnival Journeys sailing that departed Long Beach, Calif. on April 6.

I'm planning to spend $5,000 to see Taylor Swift in Europe with my kids. Our floor tickets, hotel, and flights are set to cost less than our nosebleed seats in the US did.

• I saw Taylor Swift on the US leg of The Eras Tour, and two nosebleed seats cost us $5,000.
• My daughter and I loved the show, so I scored us floor seats for one of Swift's Poland shows.
• Our European trip includes three VIP Swift tickets and is set to be cheaper than our seats in the US.

When Taylor Swift first announced her Eras Tour , I laughed when I heard colleagues had cleared their work schedules to buy tickets.

I couldn't understand why they were looking for tickets for shows hours away. I liked a few of Swift's songs, but I wasn't a "Swiftie" and didn't understand the frenzy.

That all changed when my daughter started asking intensely for tickets . And once The Eras Tour started, it became clear that it was the concert of the century. It was also nearly impossible to get tickets.

Seeing the US tour was difficult and expensive, but the show turned me into a full-on Swiftie

I didn't want my kid to miss out on this generation-defining event, but I couldn't stomach spending $4,000 or more on the resale market for two nosebleed seats on top of travel costs to another city.

Fortunately, five cousins chipped in to buy my daughter tickets for her birthday.

My daughter, a devoted Swiftie, predictably loved every second of The Eras Tour. At first, I wasn't sure how I would get through a 3 ½-hour show by an artist I barely knew — but I left in awe of Swift's talent.

Related stories

In the weeks that followed, I listened exclusively to Swift. On a trip to Nashville, I sang my heart out to Swift's songs at the Country Music Hall of Fame. I wondered whether I would be able to see her perform again, this time going all in.

Getting tickets to see Swift in Poland was easier than I expected

As soon as Swift announced international dates on her tour in June, I took the first of many steps to get tickets to one of her shows abroad. I set my sights on a show in Warsaw, Poland, for several reasons.

My children and I are Polish citizens but have never set foot in the country. I've wanted to go for years, and snagging Swift tickets would allow me to finally make the trip. I reasoned that Warsaw was unlikely to be as popular as marquee destinations like Paris. It's also a less expensive city than many other international stops on The Eras Tour.

Also, tickets for the Warsaw show were not being sold through Ticketmaster. I found the idea of not having to deal with the company that botched sales to the US leg of the tour very appealing.

A few days before tickets went on sale, I got a code for the chance to buy tickets before they became available to the rest of the public. Based on how popular presales were in the US , I knew I was unlikely to get tickets, but I set an alarm for 5 a.m. anyway.

Much to my surprise, I was able to enter the ticket-buying portal right away. I scored three VIP floor seats for the first night of Swift's Eras Tour in Warsaw for less than $1,000. My daughter, my son, and I started making friendship bracelets immediately to exchange with other concert-goers, an Eras Tour tradition.

Our trip hasn't happened yet, but I already know it'll be worth it

Although tickets to the Warsaw show were not cheap, the total cost plus our European trip is set to be about the same as or less than the two nosebleed seats I got when I saw Swift in the US.

I hope to use credit-card points to book our flights, but even if I don't, I estimate the total cost of the trip could be from $4,000 to $5,000. This isn't significantly more than my family usually spends on our annual family vacation, and I have more than a year to save.

However, unlike other family vacations, this one comes with the chance to explore our roots and see a new part of the world. I never would have guessed that Swift would be what finally got me to Poland, but it's just one more reason for me to love her.

1 dead after shuttle bus crashes at a Honolulu cruise ship terminal

HONOLULU — One person died and multiple people were injured when a shuttle bus collided with pedestrians and concrete barriers at a Honolulu cruise ship terminal, authorities said Friday.

The crash occurred when the shuttle bus driver mistook the gas pedal for the brake, Honolulu police said in statement.

The driver had dropped off customers at Pier 2 when bystanders noticed the bus was moving forward, police said. The driver jumped in the driver’s seat and attempted to stop the vehicle when he stepped on the gas, police said.

One pedestrian, a 68-year-old woman, died. Paramedics took four others in their 50s and 60s to the hospital in serious condition. They also took a man in his 70s to the hospital in stable condition.

Paramedics evaluated and bandaged six others who declined transportation to the hospital, said Honolulu Emergency Medical Services spokesperson Shayne Enright.

Police said speed does not appear to be a factor in the crash. It’s unknown if drugs or alcohol were involved, police said.
