Super cheap and ate very good. Got a good hostel 30 seconds away to a huge club street. Like 10 minutes from the main area of the city. Enjoyed really cheap fun shots. There was a club named “Havana” nearby. Great club. Wonderful art n very cold. Not a lot of English speakers but can get around easily with just saying Kurwa.
Posted: August 18, 2024I liked Warsaw. This city is so calm. Young generation know English and they are helpful. Food is avarage but I came from Turkey so I may felt that because of the awesomeness of Turkish cuisine. Public transportation is so easy and cheap. If you stay 1 month I recommend you get a 1 month public transportation card
Posted: August 3, 2024I felt very safe in Warsaw; there are many museums to visit and a variety of restaurants. I recommend sushi in the market square. The shopping mall is large and has many interesting stores. It's worth renting a bike and riding it around the city.
Posted: June 7, 2024I went to Warsaw on Christmas eve and despite this I managed to have a good time. There was lots to see and it was very cheap. I felt safe as a woman. I went around to the old quarter and Christmas markets. The food was also delicious.

I felt safe in warsaw and loved walking around. At night I preferred to stay in well-lit areas of course, normally while walking back to my airbnb in the "old town" which is a great area to stay in! My itinerary was taking as many tours as possible, such as the "WW2 in warsaw" free walking tour. I recommend the Pierogis at the restaurant "Restauracja Głodomory Mokotów" just south of a BEAUTIFUL park called Palace on the Isle (Pałac na Wyspie)

I feel safe. Howower Warsaw is a capital city, so little crowded. You must see the museums and parks. I think Public transport little expensive because we were transfer to one bus to another. Old city beautiful in the night. Altough food and wine more expensive old city area
Posted: March 13, 2024Experienced: February, 2024Warsaw is a beautiful city. They have many beautiful parks to walk in, and the "Old Town" is so nice and historical. I ate delicious dumplings and soup there. The transportation system is also easy to use.
Posted: August 8, 2023I highly recommend visiting the Warsaw Uprising Museum (mandatory), the Museum of Literature, as well as the POLIN Museum. I went to the Chopin Museum (my favorite composer). The Lapidarium of Antiquities is a famous small antique shop, which is located near the Royal Route and is splendid. I avoided the city center (known as Old Town) and the Royal Route when I was looking for food, and it turned out that my favorite restaurants are a bit on the outskirts. Łazienki Park was also beautiful.
Posted: August 8, 2023Warsaw was a beautiful place to be. It was very safe and friendly. I liked the old town, many performances in the evenings. This is particularly influential because, like many things in Warsaw, it was completely rebuilt after being bombed into oblivion during World War II. The Polish people are amazing. I liked the food, gardens and music.
Posted: June 11, 2023Inside Warsaw, I liked the Palace of Culture (city view), the Museum of Resistance Movement and the Palace Gardens, which are next to the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. The mermaid statue was also charming. The old town and the Warsaw zoo were also wonderful.

warsaw, but in general Poland, is a safe place for women. i can easily go out no matter what time is it, and i know for a fact that nothing bad will happen to me. as a side bonus, there’s always police men in the street so that makes me feel much more safe.
Posted: September 13, 2024Warsaw, Poland is a city where I feel very safe as a woman. Taking the bus at night is not considered risky here and overall crime is not common. It is always best to have your wits about you but I can honestly say that having traveled through much of Europe and the US, Poland is much safer than most of the places I have been to.

Of course, you should be careful when returning late at night, especially in places where there may be drunk people, but nothing dangerous has ever happened to me, even at a late hour. I can recommend you lesser known good restaurants and cafes 😉
Posted: July 30, 2024Warsaw is generally a safe space. Only at night, at the city centre and Praga, you can experience some cat calling. When traveling at night I would strongly recommend usimg public transport - metro and night buses - which in my opinion are even safer (and cheaper) than taking an Uber.
Posted: July 27, 2024Warsaw is a great place for people with love for huge cities and capitals who also don’t want to spend a lot of money. Poland is really cheap comparing to other countries of Europe and is not that much popular, so you don’t have to worry for crowds of tourists. We have a lot of historical places and palaces, so if you are interested in history (especially ww2) it’s a great place for you

I'm from Warsaw and in my opinion it is a really safe city. I've never been hurt or robbed here. When I go for walks in the evening, of course I feel a little anxious, but I always get home safely. There are always a lot of people in the center and everyone is helpful. The capital of Poland and the whole of Poland are really safe places that I really recommend visiting and seeing because they have amazing history and beautiful landscapes.
Posted: June 27, 2024I am from Warsaw and I recommend visiting the following places: Warsaw Uprising Museum, Wilanów Palace, Palace of Culture and Science (you can go up to the terrace on the 30th floor), Royal Castle, Old Town, New Town, Krakowskie Przedmieście street (or the entire Royal Route), Łazienki Park, Copernicus Science Center, POLIN Museum of the History of Polish Jews, Fryderyk Chopin Museum. It's also nice to stroll along the Vistula River, where there are cafes, bars and a beach. Water taxis are free. I also recommend visiting the Botanical Garden in Powsin (it's not far from Warsaw, you can get there by bus). You must go to Zapiecek for pierogi, or visit cafes where you get a free breakfast with the purchase of coffee (I recommend MOMU, which is near the Ratusz Arsenał metro station). You should try our zapiekanka - it's kind of a large sandwich. You can also visit the Wedel factory or other cafes.

Hello! My name is Taya, short for Taisa, and i loooove to travel! I’m from Belarus, but my country is in difficult political situation, and I’m unfortunately can’t come to my homeland as I’m politically repressed there :( So right now I live in Poland, Warszaw, and step by step I’m becoming local there! I know all popular and local places and I can show you around!:) Me and my boyfriend Eugene fancy wild camping, hiking, and hitchhiking. Together we dream about travelling all over the world. I believe that life is easy and world is open to you, that possibilities are endless and people are friendly and want to help! I would love to meet you girls and make friends all over the world, to help one another and exchange experiences and cultures!

Hello- I’m 36 years young and I’ve been solo traveling since my 15 year old soul dog passed away in September of 2022. I love traveling and learning the history, trying local food & drinks and just getting out of my element. I’m lucky that I can work remotely so that I can have longer trips.
