Comments on: Krakow to Lviv http://polishgrammar.com/krakow-to-lviv/ The great nation of Poland Wed, 16 May 2012 14:29:57 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: Mark Biernat http://polishgrammar.com/krakow-to-lviv/comment-page-1/#comment-13361 Mark Biernat Tue, 01 May 2012 01:08:49 +0000 http://www.polishgrammar.com/?p=269#comment-13361 Katowice is nothing to see unless you like to see something out of surreal sci-fi first shooter computer game. I mean no downtown but lots of people. I would not spend more than an afternoon there unless it was to look at women. Krakow and Lviv I would divide my time equally. Actually Lviv has a larger old town than Krakow and was a bigger cultural city for a long while. Now Krakow is rich and nice but Lviv is still rustic. I think the women in Lviv tend to be prettier generally because they are not as western as Krakow women, but it is a poorer town. I would take a train from Katowice to Krakow and it will cost about 20 pln, they run all day and night almost.

How would you best suggest splitting up that time? Should I spend the bulk of the time in Krakow with just a day each for Katowice and Lviv, or do either of these cities deserve a second day? Also, what are the bus/train fares and journey times for Katowice to Krakow? Thanks! Chris Mark,

For you it would be the easiest. Both train stations are downtown and you can sleep on the trains if you go either way. Taking an EU car to Ukraine is no problem if it is yours but a rent a car to Ukraine a non EU country is taking a chance and you would be responsible if anything happened.

What is the best way to get to Lviv from Krakow? I thought of renting a car but I am told it is difficult to cross the border with a rental car. The games are at night and then there is the problem of getting back to Krakow after the game. Are there buses that will go to the game in Lviv and then back to Krakow after the games? It does not make sense to have hotel room in Krakow and sleep on a train so I am looking for a better way to go to Lviv and come back after the games.

If it is an emergency, and I can not image what, than take the first train to the boarder, some leave early in the morning. It is only a few hours difference. If you are real low on cash you can spend the night reading at a cafe and then at 4 am or when the first train comes sleep on the train. I mean I am an experienced traveller and I have done it all. The weather is mild now in Poland. Evening, then unless there is an emergency why not sleep in some cheap student youth hostel?

If you are saying 8:45 in the evening you arrive in Krakow, I can not see how you can make that train or bus to Lviv. How much money do you want to spend, there are always options, you can get a ride, organizes something. I could get a driver to take you. But I think there are trains to the boarder. You will have to spend the night (a few hours) at the boarder until the shuttle buses come at like 5 am. But I have done that as have many. I also have asked for rides at the boarder. It all depends on you why you need to get there and your money situation. I think the best is to stay in Krakow a night and in the morning take the first train to the boarder. What is a few hours?

My flight arrives at 8.45 in Krakow and I need to get somehow to Lviv/Ternopil. It looks like no possible options at this late time, at least for me. Could you recommend something? Will be really thankful for any help. Could you please help me?

In theory it is right on the boarder and with a good road and no traffic you could be there in no time flat, like 20 minutes, but do not count on it. I would say with 2012 Euro count on a little more than an hour. Once you cross it could take less then 45 minutes.
