Polish people are incredibly polite and friendly. Expect to be welcomed and treated well, which makes your Poland holiday the perfect option if travelling with kids. You will feel comfortable walking down the street with your family in general. Of course, it always pays to stay alert wherever you are, however, Poland is a great place to visit if you are looking for somewhere low risk.
Poland does alcohol quite well! This may be a little less family travel-focused but when you visit Poland, you need to try the vodka. They sip their vodka like water and can throw back their beer as well as most Europeans. What does help though is filling your stomach with plenty of that hearty Polish food, since it seems to absorb the alcohol very well. Bring a ML bottle home as it makes a great souvenir or gift.
Beer is another popular choice in Poland and another they are quite proud of. They have many famous beers imported globally and you have the chance to visit some of the breweries around the country if you are a beer lover. There are many others as well, all well worth a visit if you have an interest in the preservation of culture. A visit to Bialowieza Forest and national park to see the European bison is a unique experience the whole family will enjoy. Then of course there are more modern attractions too, like ice skating rinks, the annual Christmas markets, the well preserved palaces and royal residences throughout Poland, including the massive Malbork Castle — the largest castle in the world, and less traditionally, a water park and plenty of other things to do in Zakopane with kids.
Enjoy winter sports during the cold months and brace yourself for a swim in the summer. Explore beautiful parks and gardens, such as the stunning Lazienki Palace pictured above. Our first visit was for around a month over Christmas many years ago and during some downtime after almost 6 weeks of travel, we went to the cinema to watch a movie. Us Australians watched the film Australia, with Polish subtitles.

I work with someone from Poland which interested me in Poland. I eat dairy and eggs but not meat. They are big on their meat and carb loaded food, but in saying that there are also a lot of vegetarian options with veggies as well, so you would definitely find non-meat dishes to eat.
