When to visit

The best time to visit Lviv is during the summer months of June to August when the weather is warm and sunny, perfect for exploring the city on foot. However, the city also has a magical charm during the winter months, especially around Christmas when the streets are decorated with lights and festive decorations.

Getting around

Getting around Lviv is easy with its well-connected public transportation system, including trams, buses, and trolleybuses. Taxis are also readily available and affordable for short distances. Walking is a popular way to explore the city center, as many attractions are within walking distance of each other.

Traveller tips

Be sure to try the local specialty, Lviv coffee, at one of the many charming cafes in the city. Don't miss a visit to the iconic Lviv Opera House for a world-class performance. Take a leisurely stroll through the picturesque Old Town and soak in the historic atmosphere. Be prepared for some language barriers, as English may not be widely spoken outside of tourist areas. Always carry some cash with you, as not all establishments accept credit cards.
