                <description><![CDATA[The tram system in Krakow imposes heavy penalties on unsuspecting tourists. The inspectors are completely intolerant of tourists ignorance and are very aggressive. It is a particularly nasty and unpleasant experience. Be warned, and don't make innocent mistakes. They take no prisoners and it appears that they treat tourists as easy targets.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[A vibrant city rich in culture, art, entertainment and superb architecture, there is so much to enjoy here and at very reasonable prices. <br><br>However, if you intend travelling around and do not speak Polish you will not find it easy to purchase tickets at the railway station. I found the booking office staff singularly unhelpful and when I did eventually manage to obtain a ticket for my journey to Auschwitz it turned out to be invalid for the train I had specified. And there are strict on-the-spot financial penalties for those found in possession of an invalid ticket - 75 zlotys (15GBP). <br><br>So take my tip save yourself time and trouble and stick to the hotel excursions. You will be glad you did.]]></description>
