ultimate warsaw guide | practical tips you must know before visiting poland's capital 

I LOVED the airport info, particularly as a solo traveler it's the bit I feel the most anxious about, so to see it all so clearly makes me feel quite at ease about going in the future. Also the miming was creepy.

Just pushed Warsaw up a few places for the list of cities to visit in Europe, thanks and cheers for the informative video.

In Warsaw Zone 1 and 2 you can travel on one ticket from the "red" ticket machine. If you are landing outside rush hours, the best mean of transport is by bus to the city center, also "red" ticket machine. Every train leaving Warsaw Chopin Airport have the same stops through the city (9 or 10 stations).

Such an informative video! Great job even for a Pole (who haven't been back home many years).

Great information! To the point and no unnecessary rambling. Thank you, will definitely check out more of your videos.

Superb travel guide. Really well thought out and covered all the bases for the seasoned traveller 👍🏼 can’t wait for our trip in March!

Brilliantly informative video! Thank you so much.

For someone regularly traveling from Dover to Riga (or the other way around), Poland also seems to be really cheap. While they are better financially situated, their prices are lower than in LV.

Very useful video. Well done. Keep up the good work 👍

Really useful information!!! Great job :-) I am going there for 3 days in May, cannot wait. The city has been growing so fast:-)

I am very thankful to have stumbled across this video. I am heading there alone in September and am a bit nervous, I come from Colorado in the States, so it will be something completely new. After watching your video my stress has been greatly alleviated and I have even added a few new activities to my list, thank you so much for doing what you do! Now I am on my way to watch your other Warsaw video :)

The level of detail is amazing. Just dropping knowledge bombs galore. Thank you so much (y) :):):)

Well done.Really useful information.🚈🚋✈🏢

This is the best city intro basics video I've seen.

I live on Warsaw and I approve this guide 👍

Saved my life. Thank you

At the Warsaw Okęcie railwaystation there are trains of two rail operators - Koleje Mazowieckie (Masovian Railways with white/green/yellow trains owned by Masovian Voivodeship) and Szybka Kolej Miejska - SKM (Fast Fast City Rail with red trains owned by city of Warsaw). SKM's trains are like any other city's public transport lines in Warsaw - buses, trams and metro - they use the same tickets of Warsaw Municipal Transport Management (ZTM). In case of time tickets you can drive in public transport for 45/60/90 minutes from validating of ticket and you can change lines as many times as you wish. There are two zones - zone 1 is the city within administrative boundaries, zone 2 are suburbs and near cites. In case of Koleje Mazowieckie's trains it's little different - there is agreement betwen Warsaw and Masovian Voivodeship about ability do ride those trains by ZTM's tickets, but this doesn't cover tickets for period shorter than one day. So 90 minute ZTM ticket isn't valid in Koleje Mazowieckie's trains and you must buy Koleje Mazowieckie's ticket. If you have one day or weekend ZTM tickets - they are valid there.

Super_super helpful especially where to get tickets in the airport, etc. Thank you so much!

I’m heading to Warsaw in August. Loved your videos .Very informative 😀🇨🇮

We are going in December, thanks for some great advance information. A really well put together travelogue.

this is a great video, thanks for the tips. I love the video style, I can't help but laugh because it's so similar to the style of video I try to make

Really nice and helpful video! Thanks

Thank you for the information , It very important for tourist.

Thanks for those useful tips 💪💪

Another great video

Amazing info thank you so much

You weren't missing out too much by not going to Czerwony Wierpz. My partner and I found it to be overpriced and that there were much better food options around. They are quieter at lunchtime, but aside from the "history" of the place and the photos of celebrities adorning the entry, I'd give it a miss.

Thank you for your very informative video

Quite a lot of nations have their own dumplings :) Pelmeņi, chinkali, pierogi, manty are just to name a few.

I’m new to your channel so I’m going through your old videos. I’m really enjoying them so far and I cant wait to be able to travel again. I went to Warsaw a few years ago with a group of friends on a short city break, flying from Liverpool. I would really like to go back again. Rounds of beer for £4-5 and friendly and helpful locals. You can’t beat Poland for city break!

Wow! Another visit in Warsaw? ✋

Very nice video. Explorative. Like your content. I am a warsaw based video maker. I have created number of videos on warsaw including other cities in poland. Thanks for making this video. Like it.

Amazing

Great research. I bet even Poles from outside of Warsaw will find it helpful :)

Red trains are SKM (Warsaw city rail) where you can use all Warsaw public transport (ZTM = bus, tram, metro, SKM) tickets which you can buy for example in those red ticket machines. Green-white trains are Koleje Mazowieckie. In Koleje Mazowieckie and WKD trains you can use some Warsaw public transport tickets (at least 24 hours tickets), 20, 40, 90 minutes tickets are not valid in those trains. More info you will find here www.ztm.waw.pl/integracja.php?i=2&c=103&l=2 . Koleje Mazowieckie has also extra offer for airport tickets www.mazowieckie.com.pl/en/airport-ticket-special-offer

Looks interesting. ..

That mimimg (I am not sure) was pretty cool, I won't lie :P

It's probably a really boring question, but I was wondering what you guys were doing (if anything) in preparation for Brexit? How does the whole Brexit situation affect us British holiday-goers? You briefly touched on currency too, I'd be interested to know your thoughts on where to exchange and how to research etc.

Well done, well done. Oklaski:)

Went to Krakow last September so this is top of my list to go to next in po land. It's such great value out there. Where else is as cheap as poland?

The best Hotel in Warsaw is Raffles Europejski Warsaw. He is located opposite the Hotel Bristol. Old Polish comedy "Miś" and scene from the Bar Mleczny ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-JauDtDthLh0.html A bar mleczny-literally "milk bar" in Polish (though not to be confused with the Australian milk bar)-is a Polish form of cafeteria. The first typical milk bar "Mleczarnia Nadświdrzańska" was established in 1896 in Warsaw by Stanisław Dłużewski, a member of Polish landed gentry. Although the typical bar mleczny had a menu based on dairy items, these establishments generally also served other, non-dairy traditional Polish dishes as well. The commercial success of the first milk bars encouraged other businessmen to copy this type of restaurant. As Poland regained her independence after World War I, milk bars appeared in most of the country. They offered relatively cheap but nourishing food, and as such achieved even more prominence during the economic depression in the 1930s. The role of cheap restaurants carried through World War II. After the fall of German Nazi regime, Poland became a communist state, and a satellite of the Soviet Union. The majority of the population was poor, contrary to official propaganda, and expensive and even moderately-priced restaurants were derided as "capitalist". During the post-war years, most restaurants were nationalized and then closed down by the communist authorities. In the mid-1960s milk bars were common as a means of offering cheap meals to people working in companies that had no official canteen. They still served mostly dairy-based and vegetarian meals, especially during the period of martial law in the early 1980s, when meat was rationed. Apart from raw or processed dairy products, milk bars also served egg (omelets or egg cutlets), cereal or flour-based meals such as pierogi. After the fall of the communist system and the end of shortage economy, the majority of milk bars went bankrupt as they were superseded by regular restaurants. However, some of them were preserved as part of the relics of the welfare state so as to support the poorer members of the Polish society. In early 2010 milk bars were seen to make a comeback. They became small, inexpensive restaurants that took advantage of welfare state nostalgia, while providing good quality food and customer service. Due to their good locations, milk bars often fall victim to gentrification processes and are defended by protest groups. Some people prefer milk bars over fast-food restaurants because of the homemade-style food and low prices. A typical three course lunch can cost as little as 2-3 euro. Currently every major Polish city has at least one "milk bar" somewhere in the city center.[citation needed] They are popular among the elderly, students, and working class, but are generally looked down upon by other social classes.

0:13 my girlfriends works there (the chatkas by the ice rink) :D

I know it's minor detail but Chopin is pronounced Sho-pen (like show without w and pen like... well pen 😂 🖋) 😉. The airport is named after one of the most famous and talented polish pianists 💕

We got the Modlinbus when we were in Warsaw a couple of weeks ago. It cost us £37 for 2 returns. The bus from the airport into town was ok, but on the way back we were in a cramped minibus with no legroom and our reserved seats weren't honoured. We worked out that an uber would have only cost us a fiver more, so it's a no from me 😂

7:32 when you were saying to try Polish pierogi the footage showed "pielmieni" that are russian :)

Here is a more detailed ticket info: www.ztm.waw.pl/?c=110&l=2 It looks that a group weekend ticket is the best deal, up to 5 people for 40PLN. Regarding the difference in train colors and tickets for them: red (ZTM) is metropolitan trains, and white/green is regional trains. Inside the metropolitan area ZTM tickets are valid for the regional trains.

I love Poland country?

Uber delivers you to the door of the hotell wich save you time and time is money

Yeap these called perogi are khinkali and you shouldn't eat it with the knife lol

Too bad flying from Canada isn't as cheap haha

Honey, you are blending way too many issues in one vid with little detail each. Airport money exchange and transportation deserve a separate vid each.
