I want to go to Krakow by car
Hello, I want to go to Krakow for the New Year with my family (child 11 years old) in my car. Advise who was, what hotel they stayed in, whether it is worth going there for the New Year and whether it is worth going by car or better by train or plane. Thanks a lot!

Traveling by car has both pros and cons. If you want to save money, go. By train, I think it will be more convenient, easy to get from Warsaw. Krakow is a very small and compact city, so you won't need a car there. It is cheaper to rent an apartment than to live in a hotel. I can suggest a site, etc.

And I advise you to go not for the New Year, but the dates from January 2 - the festive excitement will pass a little, you can calmly look at the city and its environs, and housing will cost less. We were in Krakow this year from 4 to 12 January - an unforgettable experience! However, some attractions and the Czartoryzhski Museum are closed for the winter.

Wizz Air flies to the Krakow-Katowice airport (like our Kyiv-Brispol) at a price of 147 UAH. face to one side. I last stayed at the Perla Krakow 3 * hotel, a very cozy, new, clean hotel. It is located in a quiet place, around the private sector, near the supermarket "Karefur", 15 minutes in a straight line to the center. From Krakow you can go to Zakopane, in winter it is very snowy and beautiful.

in Poland, the roads are not very good in places, if this does not bother you, then by car - well - after all, you can see not only Krakow in this case!

The roads in Poland are now very good, because the first thing that the Poles began to do after joining the European Union was new modern roads. There is already a paid autobahn from Krakow to Katowice. If you plan to stay only in Krakow, then there is no point in a car, but if you want to see something else and go (Wieliczki - salt caves, Zakopane - skiing and just wonderful air and landscape), then of course it is better to go by car. This is how you like it. Such a vacation is not cheaper than a group tour through a travel agency. It should be borne in mind that gasoline is very expensive there (more than 40 rubles per liter).

From Krakow to Wieliczka a few km, we drove in an empty minibus for 2.5 zł. (22 rub.) for 20 min. The autobahn from Krakow to Katowice is incredibly expensive, if you had paid out of your own pocket, you would have turned back and done the right thing! Attractions in Katowice. no. And in general, in winter, as it seemed to me, there is nothing to see except Warsaw, Krakow and Zakopane. Castles are closed, except Wawel. You don’t need to go to Auschwitz with a child, and on vacation it’s better to do without visiting it at all, although everyone needs to see it. The very atmosphere of the Christmas medieval town is exceptional. Just do not stay at the hotel - you will "kill" the feeling of "real life" in Krakow, but in terms of comfort this is heaven and earth. Apart. in early January from 450 r. /person , can be cheaper. Read reviews about hotels, including K. Plaza, and get a more objective idea. We reviewed almost all hotels before the trip. . . there was a choice on the budget between 3 * and a luxury apartment. In the late evenings, having prepared dinner and heated the Gzhanets, they realized that they were not mistaken. Have a good trip!

The question is a bit old)) but I will write for those who are going now .. We were in Krakow 12/31/2013 - 01/04/2014. We went by car. And a very important point is that the famous A4 motorway is currently unfinished, although it is in all printed maps and navigators as valid. In fact, many sections simply do not exist, many are mothballed, but navigators consistently display them. We ourselves fornicated enough until the Poles explained this to us and met a huge number of tourists from Ukraine and Russia, who fornicated for 300 km along this highway in almost eights in different sections. So, initially you need to turn off the navigator and go along the green road (usual intercity with speed limits of 50/70 km.), Or enter intermediate points in the villages into the navigator in increments of 30-40 km, and again go along the same green road.
