Holiday breaks
Małopolskie winter break: family trips from Kraków
Poland staggers winter breaks by province. The education ministry's 2026/27 calendar puts Małopolskie, the province around Kraków, in the 15–28 February 2027 group; Warsaw's province is on a different fortnight. Christmas is 23–31 December 2026, Easter 25–30 March 2027 and summer 26 June – 31 August. Graduating and adult cohorts have their own exam commitments; check them before booking.

What to weigh

- The shortlist is ranked on modelled cost only; it does not filter by flight time, direct service, weather or entry rules. Check those yourself.
- The budget is an editable illustration in local currency for a family of four, not a typical, recommended or guaranteed amount.
