    I'm trying to figure out what gets me to Krakow as early as possible I'd love to have a whole day to see this city
    Bus leaving at 02:25 and gets into Krakow at 10:15. The site has not updated for late June or July yet. 


    And that's direct? Could be a winner
    Ya it is but it is annoyingly not updating for the summer schedule. How many are you traveling with? I am going solo and would be nice to get together with some other forum members. I am planning on going right after the show back into Prague. Getting a look at the city/bridge under the lights then heading west to the bus stop. 

    Also that night train looks great but I really want to have the day before to explore Krakow so I will not feel rushed on the day of the show.
    I'm going solo also I'd like to get to Krakow early on the 2nd to have the whole day but as far as I know there's no late night train so a bus might have to do

    Any of you guys going to Barcelona?

    No, we're staying an extra night/day in Prague so we're on the bus overnight on July 2nd. Arriving in Krakow at 7:40am on July 3rd.

    Ah ok. With those ones available now and the 02:25 train not showing has me wondering if it will ever be available.

    The overnight bus is tempting but if I take it on the 2nd/3rd it means I'll arrive the day of the show and get little time to see the city.  The train is also only 6.5 hours which means likely less than 6 hours sleep the day of the show.

    I've looked into rental cars and vans but the price seems too steep.

    The more I think about it the private transportation seems like a good idea.  Would any of you guys be interested?  It's basically 57 Euro, or 88 cnd and included all costs and a 4 hour stop at Auschwitz.  Really my only chance to see Auschwitz is by driving on the 2nd.

    If the night bus after the show does not become available I would be interested in this. What time were you thinking of leaving?

    I see that too, though it's not Direct, which i don't care. Looks to me it will only be about 40 minutes longer? I'm good with that.

    I give you guys credit who will do the over night travel after the show. Sleep is just to important for me.

    Options for Krakow to Berlin are pretty crap right now.
    Overnight train departs at 17:30, has two changes and gets to Berlin at 10:48am which is later than I'd like to be arriving on the day of the show.

    So, the other options are day trips via train or bus, leaving at 09:20 on July 4th and arriving in Berlin at 17:15 which takes out our plans to go to Auschwitz.  I don't know what to do.

    What about overnight travel from Prague to Krakow on 2nd. Auschwitz on 3rd, travel to Berlin on 4th...?
