Jakdojade beats Google Maps: The local transit app routes trams, buses and metro in real time and lets you buy tickets in-app. A 20-minute ticket is 3.40 PLN (~$0.85); the 24-hour pass is 15 PLN. The metro's only two lines, but trams cover the rest. Praga is the up-and-comer: Right-bank Praga survived the war and now hosts galleries, vodka bars and converted factory spaces; the Soho House is here. Mokotów and Wola are corporate; Żoliborz is leafy and family-friendly. For neighbourhood detail, cost breakdowns, and visa paths, see the full Warsaw city guide.
