The most suitable time to visit Poland for a vacation depends on your preferences. Here is an overview of the periods with average temperatures and benefits: 

• Summer (June-August): The summer period in Poland is often sunny and warm, but there is a chance of spontaneous rain showers and humid days. Rain in these months is often accompanied by thunderstorms. If you're planning to go on an adventure during the months of June-August, be prepared for potential weather changes.
• Autumn (September-November): You can still enjoy summer weather in September, but temperatures will soon drop as you approach October. Autumn is the perfect season to go on an adventure and take a city trip to Poland.
• Winter (December-March): The temperature in Poland during winter is just above or below freezing. Make sure you bring warm clothing and expect freezing temperatures throughout the day in areas like the Tatra Mountains.
• Spring (April-May): The temperature slowly begins to rise at the beginning of spring. The sun is also coming out more, but there are still showers regularly. Bring both warm and more open clothing so you're well-prepared for a change in the weather.

1. Safety: Poland is safe, but be mindful of your belongings in busy cities like Warsaw and Krakow. Drinking alcohol in the street is prohibited and can lead to a night in a sobering cell and fines.
2. Payment: The euro is only accepted in limited places, especially in tourist areas like Krakow. Use your European bank card (look for 'bankomat' ATMs for Maestro/Mastercard) or exchange money in Poland. In small villages, cash is often needed.
3. Car Rental: Rent a car from rental companies at airports. Roads have improved since Poland joined the EU. Maximum speeds: 50 km/h (built-up areas), 90 km/h (outside built-up areas), 100 km/h (highways), 140 km/h (motorways).
