Our tips for Poland

Poland still flies under the radar for a lot of travellers, and honestly, that's their loss. We've been several times and keep coming back for the cities. Kraków is one of our favourite cities in Eastern Europe: I've been three times, and it was one of the very first trips we took with our daughter. Wrocław won us over with colourful squares and hundreds of little bronze dwarfs, and in Poznań and Gniezno I discovered where Poland's story began. Direct flights get you to Wrocław and Poznań in about an hour and a half, and if you're up for a road trip, the Tatra Mountains and Czechia are right next door. Here's everything we learned, so you can plan your own trip to Poland.
