International train tickets to/from Poland

Poland is well-connected by rail with its neighbours to the west, south, and east. It is possible to travel by train across borders and throughout Central Europe. Direct trains from Poland to neighbouring countries can be purchased in our Quick Booking system.

West (Germany and beyond)

Through cooperation with DB, the German railway company, it is possible to travel by train between Poland and Germany.

The fast Warszawa/Gdynia-Berlin-Express services link the capital cities of the two countries, also serving Poznań, Gdańsk and Gdynia, along with other cities along the way. Several trains daily travel the route, offering air-conditioned comfort, fully-reserved seating, and onboard meal service. In Berlin, you can connect to/from the extensive DB network for travel throughout Germany and beyond. In Poznan and Warsaw you can connect to Polish Rail services allowing you to reach most any point in Poland.

From Berlin there are also regular regional train services to the Polish city of Szczecin, a convenient station to connect to other points in the northwest part of Poland.

From Wrocław you can travel by direct train services to Berlin daily, as well as to Dresden (via Görlitz).

From Przemysl, Krakow, Katowice and Wroclaw, there is a direct day train to Berlin.
