Poland by Train: Book Your Polish Rail Holiday


Poland by Train: Book Your Polish Rail Holiday

Poland is a highly interesting destination for a rail holiday, as it is home to stunning cities, some beautiful natural landscapes, and excellent trains.

Poland is best known for its historic cities, and exploring the sights in places such as Krakow, Warsaw, Wroclaw, and Gdansk is a real pleasure.

On a rail holiday in Poland, you can take in all these wonders in the best way possible – aboard the comfortable, fast, and modern trains of the state operator PKP.

Whichever part of Poland you wish to visit, and whatever your reason for exploring the country, there is no better way to do so than by train!

The ready-made holiday packages from Byway can also be fully tailored to your preferences, if you wish.

Combine Poland with other countries!

Your Polish train holiday starts from your local railway station, and you have the freedom to customise your journey to the country to match your preferences.

If your journey begins in the UK or elsewhere in Western Europe, the most convenient route to Poland passes through Germany.

It therefore makes perfect sense to include some fascinating German destinations in your Polish rail holiday, so why not adjust your itinerary to visit Berlin or Dresden before continuing by train to Poland?

There are countless other options, as you could also explore Poland as part of a grand rail tour of Central Europe, including cities such as Prague, Budapest, and Vienna.

Or perhaps, after seeing Poland’s main sights, you might want to travel further north to the Baltic States?

Byway can cater to any route you prefer, allowing you to customise not only the Polish portion of your trip but also the journey to get there.
