💡 Tips

  • The Koleje Mazowieckie commuter train is by far the fastest way to travel to and from central Warsaw.
  • Visit the Holy Trinity Basilica outside of mass times to quietly admire its impressive Baroque interior architecture.
  • The town itself is spread out; consider using a bike or car if you want to explore far beyond the train station area.
  • Ticket machines for the train may lack an English menu; buying tickets via mobile apps like Jakdojade is easier.
