Gdansk Poland Christmas Market December 2024

Gdansk Poland

3 Days in Gdansk I first heard of Gdansk in 2023 but unfortunately the flight prices were too expensive so it wasn't until 2024 that we visited this beautiful place for the Christmas markets.

After an entertaining start at Stansted with the parking, a little confusion as to if it had actually been booked at meet and greet unfortunately it turned out there was a booking issue so it had not, so it was a few drives around the Stansted airport roundabouts while we booked the mid stay and even saved a few pounds. Our flight was on-time and on landing it wasn't long before we were outside ready to book our transfer to the hotel. This time we used Bolt, it was half the price of Uber, and cost only 56 pln (£11) for a 27 minute journey to our hotel and we only waited 2 minutes to be picked up.

Wroclaw Poland Christmas Market December 2023

Wroclaw Poland

Wroclaw Christmas market has loads of stalls, and we recon it's the second biggest one we have visited after Cologne. The market and christmas tree are located on the market square, which itself is one of the largest in Europe, and the stalls also radiate off the market square and this all adds up to giving a very festive vibe.

During the day there are lots of things to see and do as Wroclaw is Poland’s fourth largest city, and it is a truly beautiful place and such a delight to be in, but it's easy to forget as you walk around that 70% of the city has been rebuilt since the end of World War II. 

We had an early flight out from Stansted airport at 5:25am on a Friday, the flight time was 2 hours and
