Travel to Warsaw

Warsaw Chopin Airport, positioned just 10km south of the city center, is Warsaw's main airport. Many major airlines offer frequent flights to Warsaw, minimising the stress of searching for an appropriate flight. Upon arrival at Warsaw Chopin Airport, you'll find an array of useful services within close proximity: the tourist office, car rentals, and currency-exchange services. The underground Warsaw Chopin Airport Railway Station is in close range of the Airport terminal, as well bus services that run during the day and night. Bus 175 will take you directly to the city center during the day, whereas during the night bus N32 is in operation. If public transport isn't to your liking, however, there are a selection of reliable taxi services situated outside.

Traveling around Warsaw

Buses, trams and metros journey through every inch of the city, enabling you to reach any site of interest with ease. Tickets may be purchased from most tourist offices and newsagents, with all public transport working under the same ticket system, therefore promising the utmost simplicity. Most major routes run from 5am until 11am, before night transport takes over. Though car rental services are available, they might not be the most preferable option due to requiring a great amount of attention, with paid parking also increasing your expenses. Considering the city spans out for 517 squared kilometers, walking is only an option if you wish to remain close to your accommodation. If you wish to go a little further, however, there are a variety of places from which you can rent a bike.

Walking Around in Warsaw

Warsaw is a wonderful city for walking as the city center, or Old Town, is fairly compact and the ground is level. There are also plenty of cafes and restaurants in the city if you need to take a break from walking. Start your journey at the Royal Castle, which was once home to the Polish Royal Family. The castle was completely destroyed in WWII, but was carefully rebuilt and is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Those that are interested in Polish history should take one of the guided tours of the castle. Across from the castle, you will find St. Anne's church, where there is a narrow staircase to the top of the church tower. The climb is worth the effort for birds-eye views of the whole city. A short walk away, you will find the Barbican, which is a historic fortification that was once part of the city's walls. There is a small monument there to children who died in the war. Next, head towards the historic Jewish Ghetto, where you can learn about the treatment of the city's Jewish residents during the Nazi occupation of Warsaw. There are a number of interesting museums and memorials to explore here.
