Geoff, we did a route around the Baltic this summer tha included Scandanavia, Russia, Baltics, Poland, Slovakia, Hungary, Austria and Germany. Poland is great. The people are very friendly. The roads are horrible...all under some sort of construction. On one road we drove into oncoming lane for several miles of backed up traffic. No one seemed to mind. On faster roads, the autos parted like the Red Sea to let us pass through. Leave a good bit of time for Auschwitz if you have the emotional strength. We didn't spend nearly enough time in Kracow. It's a very pretty town with an amazing town square. We arrived after a long day of rainy travel across the mountains from Budapest. We only booked 1 night, and we were very sorry we didn't really get time to explore. Here's our BLOG including some of your stops.
Iron Curtain Tour Let me know if you have questions. Jon
