Wroclaw Glowny train station.

The old castle-like train station in my pic was subject to major refurbishment as at June 2011, so I look forward to seeing the new station - it's located on ul. Pilsudskiego, about 15 minutes walk from the Rynek. Train services are excellent to many destinations, including Warsaw (385km), Krakow (268km), Lodz (242km), Katowice (190km). International destinations include Berlin, Budapest and Prague.

The bus station is on ul. Sucha, just behind the train station. From England, the bus price is approximately 130 Pounds return (as at 2011). A large Polish carrier is Sinbad, I used them in 2011 and found them to be very good - below their website in Polish only :-

Wroclaw Train Station
1 more image

Wroclaw is located on two major train lines, one from Warsaw with Wroclaw and the other linking Krakow with Dresden in Germany. Beside that, several regional lines (e.g. to Klodzko or Dzierdzoniów) are available. While the Warsaw line can compete with other means of transport in terms of speed, train travel in Poland is often cheaper but slower than by coach. It is recommended to check always both alternatives in term of price and speed.
The station itself is a beautiful huge building from 1855 – you can get lost in it easily. To the north side of it, you'll find the green ring separating the station from the old town. To the south, there is the coach terminal. When travelling from the station, please note that the departure platform of your train is given in Roman numbers (I-V) while the track is given in Arabic numbers (1-10).

Wroclaw Kopernikus Airport

Wroclaw has an airport with connections to some of the larger cities in Europe. Ryanair and Wizzair offer low-cost flights to well-known places such as London-Stansted or Frankfurt-Hahn. Searching flights on their webistes and booking around three months in advance will usually get you to Wroclaw for an affordable fare. Other airlines in Wroclaw include LOT Polish Airlines and Lufthansa.
The airport is connected with Wroclaw's train station by bus line 406. Fare for a single ride is 2,40 as of 2010. Tickets are not available from the driver, but from the newspaper shop in the terminal or the vending machine next to the bus stop. The button for single ride to the city centre is clearly marked on that machine. Buses run every 20 minutes during daytime, check their website below for the schedule.

By Coach to and from Wroclaw

The coach terminal in Wroclaw

Wroclaw is well connected within the network of Polish buses and coaches, most of which are run by PKS. As train connections in Poland are still a little behind western European standards (Although the high speed connection to Warsaw is excellent), coaches are a good alternative. Moreover, most of the smaller Polish towns are not served by train at all and where it does, the coach service is usually far cheaper. However, coach services are slower, sometimes much slower depending on route. A typical coach trip from/to Warsaw would take you around 5 to 6 hours.
The coach station is located to the South of the train station. Tickets can be bought at the ticket counters or with the drivers. If you want to buy a return ticket, make sure that your return journey is operated by the same company. Other bus companies will not accept your ticket. On a large coach station as Wroclaw, you will receive information about the platform (peron) and bay of your bus. Be sure to know what is what as they are easy to mix up. The coach station is not specifically dangerous, but act with common sense and beware of pickpockets.

WROCLAW - GDANSK by Eurolot
wroclawiak profile photo
wroclawiak 293 reviews

Eurolot has launched direct flieghts from Wroclaw to Gdansk. The tickets start from 195 zł,
app. 50 €, not cheap. But if you calculate and compare with train tickets and travel time you will propbably opt for flighing.
The main problem is that the Eurolot.com is only in Polish now [june 2011]. Well done Eurolot!!!!!!
Eurolot stuff have a really good idea to promote the Polish language in the world.

WROCLAW-GDANSK by Ryanair

wroclawiak 293 reviews
Polish seashore flying to Rygge.

There are no direct flights between Wroclaw and Gdansk with Ryanair. But there good connections via Oslo Rygge. Check it. If you pay with Mastercard prepaid and you travel with hand lagugge the ticket will cost you sometimes less than the intercity ticket. This is a little bit risky travelling like that. Flying with Ryanair you book two separate tickets. If the first plane is delayed and you have less than one hour for changing the planes it can happen that you miss the next plane and you will have to buy another ticket for a lot of money or you get stuck in Rygge. Read carefully the conditions. I've traveled this way many times and I've never got stuck anywhere.
The direct flight from Wroclaw to Gdańsk offered by Eurolot costs aroud 50€.

Travelling without ticket.

wroclawiak 293 reviews

Don't try to travel without the proper ticket. The ticket prices are not so high . But if you travel without any and you are cought by ticket collectors you can start playing a nice cat and mouse game with them.
They don't wear any unfirom and enjoy hunting for free riders.

The bad times have come for free riders. There are more and more ticket collectors hunting for those travelling without ticket. I had seen only one ticket collector a year till 2010 . Now there are more and more. I think that Adrenalin junkies only would enjoy travelling without a ticket now.

Good Luck!

Train tickets-international desk

In main railway station, Wroclaw Glowny, you probably cannot get service in English but you are able to sit down and take your time if you go to international desk.
When you come in from the main entrance, turn right and go until you have sliding doors left to you. I had the train and the destination information already printed but on this desk you are able to check these with a ticket seller from computer.
If you want to make sure that you have a seat, book your ticket to an eurocity or an intercity train.

There are very few flights to Wroclaw airport from outside of Poland. Flights come from: Frankfurt (6 times a week), Munich (2 flights a day), and Copenhagen (daily).

The city is connected to Warsaw with regular daily flights.

The airport is situated to the south west of the city and is served by bus number 406. The service runs three times an hour to the main railway station.
