If you have a car I think you can do it faster but I can not imagine that with all the Euro 2012 activity, even if they have a special bus for Euro 2012 it would be much less time. They bth Poland and Ukraine are not well prepared as all the big wigs are too busy shaking hands and not focused on something simple like getting the roads done. Warsaw to Lviv is 12 hours.

I live in Philadelphia but will be in Poland for Euro 2012. I actually have tickets for a match in Lviv for sat night the 9th June. I will be in Warsaw and was wondering how long it would take to get to Lviv by train. It seems quite long so I will probably release my tickets. I don't even arrive in Warsaw until Friday the day before. Thank you. I really enjoy the sight. Hey, stumbled across your site and thought I’d ask you a question.

To Krakow will be cheapest then a bus over night to Lviv will be like 20 Euro at most. If you take a day train to the boarder then walk across or with a van even cheaper. Please do not write in all caps and try to grammar check. Yes agreed. To Krakow will be cheapest then a bus over night to Lviv will be like 20 Euro at most.

It depends on your budget. I am a foofy American and maybe only once took the night sleeper train. It is more comfortable and the best way to travel but it is all the same time about 10 hours the only difference is you sleep better. What are you in Krakow for? Where are you from in Ukraine? I think you will like Krakow. It depends on you, but I recommend a bus or day train as the night sleeper car is expensive, like 200+ pln while he bus is 80 pln and the day train less.

They make their living bringing lower priced Ukrainian products to the Polish border and crossing back again. They do this everyday of the week and really slow the crossing down for students and tourists. You can just say you are tourists and they move your up. It is total chaos at the border with people asking you if you can carry things across for you or people waiting. But do not be intimidated. I have no problem asking to be moved ahead. I have two passports and speak Polish and English and I just spoke in English and played like an innocent tourist. But I think they will let anyone, students and Poles move ahead as you are not part of the daily tobacco trade. I have no problem cutting morally as these people are selling things that I can not agree with. I know they are making their living this way but it promotes something bad. So just talk to one of the people in charge and so can we please move through the line. Even if you have to wait it is not that bad.

My dad explained me how to get there and cross the border by foot and he also told me to cut the line and say I'm a student. My question is about the line-cutting. What am I really meant to do? Do I just walk in front all the people who wait in line, tell them all they should let me pass first becquse I'm a student/tourist/whatever and then take the first spot? I hope you have enough time to answer. If I leave Krakow airport at 1 pm, how safe do you reckon it would be to do this trip (knowing the fact that I travel alone, am a girl and have only some elementary knowledge of the ukranian language)? Thanks! Hi Mark,

It is still summer. October can be cool and wet, but not always, some days are warmer and sunny. It is so hard to predict but I would say that this area of the world is cloudy and damp so be prepared for cool damp weather in the upper 40s. Ask me any questions about this if you need more detail. Gorodnek is close to Lviv there is a bus and maybe even a train that goes there, then take a cab to the village of your family or what you want to explore, But I am pretty sure there is a train that does though there or close enough.

Thinking of travelling to Lviv and Krakow in October. What kind of weather do you think we should expect. I hear you are having a warmer than usual fall. Also, do you have any advice about getting from Lviv to Gorodnek. Want to thank you for all the great advice on this website. Thinking of travelling to Lviv and Krakow in October.
