Leave nothing in the car!

by evaanna

Wherever in Poland you might be, never leave your car unlocked, not even for a moment. And remember to take all your possessions with you and leave nothing in it.Even things of little value like a car radio, a plastic bag (who knows what it might contain?), or an old sweater might provoke someone to break the window to get at them. I have heard of such cases in Gdansk, where German tourists had all their luggage stolen, with their passports in it, while they went sightseeing. The same happened recently in Lancut in the south of Poland, while my neighbour and her boyfriend went on a tour of the palace. But it may happen anywhere so take care!

Trains - Feet on the Seats

by Jase1177

Although I was warned by one of our Polish friends, I forgot about putting feet on the seat in the train car. I was alone in our compartment, reading and enjoying the scenery when the conductor happened by for my ticket. He scolded me (in Polish) to remove my feet.Luckily, he only told me to remove them- you could be fined for such an offense.(btw, I did not have shoes on my feet, only socks)

The official booklet - IMPORTANt for all tourists!

by Polish_Mila

Too much Polish language in Poland!

by Landad

Frustrated when looking for some information about Poland in the Internet because all of them are in Polish?Check the on-line dictionary Polish - English, English - Polish, where you can translate pretty big parts of text. Of course the translation is not perfect, but at least you will know what the text is about.Check the address below:http://www.translate.pl/pl.php4na angielski = translate into Englishna polski = translate (from English) into Polish

Online Ticket Scam

by RB_Oakes

Absolutely do not buy tickets online from Eurolines Polska. They will not be honoured by the bus (as what happened to me). You'll end up stranded or paying cash and sorting out the online purchase with your credit card company later.

Robbers and Prostitution

by GabyThieme

After crossing the borders into Poland, I was saddened by the sight of girls standing at the side of the road offering their services. The economy has become so bad that a lot of people are left to beg and steal.

Traffic Tickets

by amav

BEWEARE OF THE TRAFFIC POLICE. ALL BELEIVE ME ALL OF THEM HAVE RADARS AND CHECKING THE SPEED LIMIT. SOMETIMES ALTHOUGH YOU THING THAT NOTHING IS WRONG THEY STOPED YOU AND YOU HAVE A TICKET. EVERY TIME THAT I TRAVEL TO POLAND ALWAYS THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE POLICE AND A LOT OF MY FRIENDS ALSO SAYING THE SAME WORDS LIKE I DO SO BE CAREFUL ?????

Watch Your Wallet

by aqazi

I think I'm quite a savvy traveller but I have to admit that I was brought down a peg or two when I mangaed to get pickpocketed in Warsaw. The warning is not to take the airport bus into town, or if you do watch everything especially your wallet.I have to say that my stay wasn't ruinned though, the police were very nice, and the interpreter that took down my statement couldn't have been more pleasant. I have to say I was distracted by the the short shorts the WPC's wear in Poland in the summer, very nice....

No Sleeping on Trains at Night!

by MonsterZero

Many Polish train stations have full-time petty thieves working the stopped long distance trains at night. They stand on the platforms waiting for a train, when a train stops they get in for a tour of the cars and then just before train departure they get back on the platform to wait for the next train.They are absolutely not shy of opening the sliding doors to your compartment even though it makes noise and will probably wake you up...unless it's 3 A.M. and your sleep is too deep. Caught one bending over me inside my little compartment at 3:00A.M. he said he wanted to ask me what time it was. 10 minutes later as the train was departing the platform the dude was already back on the platform trying to look casual.1) Always travel first class to avoid permanent company of strangers in your compartment. Walk up and down the cars to look for empty compartments if needed. First class cars...

No danger, just WARNING - Which toilet to use?

by GlobalSoul

In Poland, for some reason and unlike anywhere else I have seen in the world, mens toilets are marked with a triangle and womens toilets are marked with a circle. This is worth bearing in mind as these signs are IN LIEU of the usual male/female markings or even the Polish words for men/women in many places! I really have no idea why, although my travelling companions came up with several shaky theories! If anyone knows, please enlighten me!
