Hello everybody i saw time ago a video-documental sponsored by Wyborowa: From Poland with love http://www.vbs.tv/en-pl/watch/from-poland-with-love
Well, the video showed other things/activities not typical for average tourist in Poland and pointed from one artistic-cultural point of view. In my opinion some of these topics were ok, others like not interested t me, but at least was an alternative offer of activities for many different kind of people. Adding to this, i like the part with horses in the forest :D as its something that I cant do often in my country and as a visitor in Poland would be nice to do. Try to watch the video, is very varied (version is in English).

I think more naked girls would do the trick. Winter would be a problem, tho

Tourism is a good thing. We call it in Turkey "industry without chimney"... But you have to be carefull not to destroy nature and culture by making money from it.

And I belive archaeology is an important part of tourism. you should dig more place that possibly has historical ruins.

What can Poland do?

1)Smile more, stare less.

2)Understand the concept of customer service.

3)Better restaurants.

Those things alone will make a huge difference. Probably sounds shallow but the average tourist wants the above no matter where they are. To attract tourists they need first and foremost to be ready for them, to understand the concept properly, to accept them (albeit grudgingly, as long as it is not displayed) as income and potentially, a big chunk of it.


Believe me, everything else will fall into place once the above is addressed because Poland has plenty to offer otherwise.

Smile enough I think ,politeness SUPER also,

Im from toursim country ,nature,historical place,are NOTİNG.

First; Poland need just more enjoy area ,like amsterdam,or Bodrum in Turkey halikarnasos,1. class bars,clubs,Bar and clubs street, old city wonderful place but empty nobody in there because not enogh place for enjoy, must to be 24 hour enjoy not sleep.

Second; Casinos, poland casinos very small and games too low, poland must open all 5 stars hotels casinos but not small like now, minimum 25 table and 5000 slots ,and must works with Casinos taravel agency bring customers from other countries,realy good business.Im sorry but europa doesnt know about casino business ,USA and China are best ,Just las vegas made money and tourist more than other 49 states. Las vegas in desert.

I think if poland tourism and culture minister pay attention this Poland perfect contry noting wrong,beautifull and cultured contry and people.

I think there's a potential market for guided tours tailored to specific individuals or groups from other countries want to walk the ground and see the places where their Polish ancestors lived. North Americans are particularly interested in learning about their roots - the whole genealogy industry is seeing explosive growth with the advent of the internet. They would visit Poland provided there was a guide to help them with the language and to get them around. It would take people out into the small villages and spread their money around more. Accommodation could be handled by having people stay in private homes - bed and breakfast kind of concept.

Ah see ! I stumble across this thread and my teeth are already grinding !!

This is one of my pet hates as I am continually frustrated by the non efforts of the Polish Tourism board to promote the country to the rest of the world.

Merged: Why does Poland not have a lot of tourists?

I remember reading an article (can't find it now, but if I do I'll post it), and Poland was ranked one of the worst in Europe when it comes to tourism. I used to think that it was a lack of advertising, but I don't think this is the reason. Look at Czech Republic and Hungary for example. Its not like they are any better at advertising tourism than Poland. Yet Prague and Budapest have way more tourists, and they are much more popular and famous around the world. Why is it that Poland is practically unknown to most? I was always told Krakow has tons of people from around the world, but when I went last summer, the vast majority of the tourists were Polish tourists, and there was very few people there, the same thing with Zakopane. Howcome Western European countries get all the spotlight while Poland has nothing? Poland has beaches and mountains, yet most people couldn't care less and would rather visit the alps instead. Zamosc is another perfect example. Everyone on this forum says its so famous etc ect, yet its practically deserted when you go there.
