    Presume we can just buy a sim in a phone shop over there? Once we have unlocked phones.

    Just wodering how much money would be advisable to take to Poland if I was only going for 6 full days and was planning to spend wisely (low budegt). I don't drink so will save on that also. It would only be needed for food, entertainment/attractions etc because the accomodation has been paid for already

    I was just on the live chat too. The sim packs are available in all Orange shops in Poland and also in Ruch shops. Not sure what Ruch is but assume it's some sort of chain.

    If you're on O2, you can request your unlock code from the following link http://www.o2online.ie/o2/help/article.php?aid=55730#NUC2

    I'd say about 350-450 PLN. Bus and Tram tickets are about 3 PLN, dinner is about 20 PLN, however it may be more because of price increase. There are cheap markets such as "Biedronka" and "Lidl" when you can buy cheap food and drinks.

    About carriers, there are 4:
    Orange
    Play
    T-Mobile
    Plus GSM

    You can buy pre-paid cards from one of their shops, no problem with that. Of course phone must be unlocked.

    If you will be in Gdansk, and you don't have a place to stay yet, check out this:

    The Fan Enclave campsite

    There will be events such as paintball and music. There are also telebims.
