Overview

A domestic driver from Explorer Dubai Ltd. can take you, your loved ones, or your staff wherever you need to go in comfort and safety. They typically adhere to set routes and times but can change plans quickly if an urgent situation arises.

Professional and personable, our drivers will take you and your loved ones anywhere in Poland at your convenience. They follow all road rules while driving for your safety and their own.

We realize it’s challenging to drive up and down steep inclines, but you won’t find that in Poland. The majority of Poland’s land is flat lowlands. There is a broad band of lake land and the coast of the Baltic Sea to the north. Large tracts of forest surround the central lowlands. The land rises into mountain ranges to the south, first the Sudeten and then the Carpathians. These mountains form the Polish border in the south. The Tatras mountains are the highest in Poland. They are in the Carpathians. There is a height of 8,212 feet on Rysy Mountain. Zakopane, a year-round sports mecca, is located at the base of the Tatra Mountains. It’s incredible, right?

Due to the low cost of driving in Poland, you can save a lot of money on gas. This saving is because if you are a local driver in Poland, you won’t have any trouble getting to the country’s many villages and towns, thanks to the country’s excellent network of paved roads. However, a growing population necessitates and occasionally advocates for new or improved roads in most urban areas.

Just What Does The Term “Domestic Driver” Entail?

A domestic driver, or personal driver, carries customers for a living. They primarily work for high-income individuals and provide transportation services for businesses. The term “chauffeur,” another term for a domestic driver, may have come up in conversation or the written word.

To What Extent Are Ugandan Domestic Drivers Accepted In Poland?

Yes, indeed! Domestic drivers must have passed rigorous testing and have valid permits and CDLs before being considered for employment with Explorer Dubai Ltd.

The Kampala Institute of Driving and Mechanics, Precious Driving School, Prestige Driving School, Legacy Driving School, Ddembe Driving School Ltd., J & K Driving School, Bugolobi Driving School, Blick International Riding Academic, Lakeside Driving School, Ruhinda Advanced Driving School, EDS Driving, and many more are just some of the driving schools in Uganda where one can enrol in a driving course.

For What Reasons Are Ugandans In Such Great Demand In The Private Sector Of The Poland Economy?

Our domestic drivers are highly sought after in Poland because, in addition to their professional training, they also possess the following talents:

Exceptional Time-Managers

They are dependable because of how well they manage their time. Domestic drivers who do not respect their employers’ time will likely find themselves without a job. Due to their reliability, domestic drivers from Uganda are in high demand in Poland right now. They are reliable workers who do their jobs when they’re supposed to. They are reliable and willing to work around their employers’ schedules.

Please Observe All Applicable Traffic Laws.

They are well-versed in driving safely and responsibly and adhere to all applicable legislation. They will undoubtedly become proficient in the Poland driving system in no time. Likewise, the Ugandan drivers we employ for domestic work are incredibly law-abiding.

Superior In Competence And Dependability.

They are competent professionals who can protect their customers’ privacy. In other words, they don’t invade people’s personal space. In addition, they have excellent organizing skills and are skilled planners.

Maintaining A Healthy Level Of Fitness And Stamina.

Our drivers are in great health and have a lot of energy, so they can work long shifts without any problems. Long-distance driving is possible in Poland. They’re physically fit and have never suffered from any serious illnesses.

Proper Maintenance Of Public And Private Hygienic Facilities

They always look put together, and they practice meticulous cleanliness. As a result of our familiarity with Saudi culture, we know how vital it is to maintain a clean, tidy appearance at all times. Furthermore, they maintain a spotless and organized fleet of automobiles.

Extremely Malleable

Our domestic drivers, while generally reliable, are flexible enough to accommodate last-minute trips and are continuously on the watch out for ways to improve processes and procedures. In addition, because Arabic is the most commonly spoken language in Poland, many locals there are eager to pick up the language.

Effective Stress-Handlers

The drivers we employ throughout the country are masters at dealing with pressure. Even though they work long hours and are often tired, our Ugandan domestic drivers keep their cool and keep working without making complaints that aren’t necessary. Consistently polite is an understatement.

Interesting Facts About Poland That Ugandan Baristas Love

1. Tricky Language

Besides Poland, no other country uses Polish as its official language. Poland’s membership in the European Union makes Polish a recognized language in the EU.

Non-native speakers frequently lament the difficulty of learning Polish as a beginner. A different opinion may be held if you are fluent in a related language to Polish, such as Czech. However, most people still need help learning Polish.

Polish is remarkable because it contains several sounds that are absent from the vast majority of other languages. Also, unlike most other Slavic languages, these sounds are written with a modified version of the Latin alphabet.

Do you know the distinction between sz and rz, for instance? Where do you stand on,, and dz? Unfortunately, Polish orthography is notoriously tricky and only gets more complex as time goes on. Even native speakers have trouble keeping track of all the rules!

2. John Paul II, The Pope

Poland has been at the centre of Christian Europe for centuries with a Catholic population that is second only to Italy in its devotion to the church.

It’s not hard to picture the world’s reaction in 1978 when a young Polish cardinal named Karol Józef Wojtya was chosen as Pope. He became Pope under the name Jan Pawe II, or Pope John Paul II in English.

By the time he passed away in 2005, aged 84, Pope John Paul II had become one of the longest-serving popes in history, having presided over the Catholic Church for the better part of the second half of the twentieth century.

The former Pope is widely celebrated in modern-day Poland. Statues, stamps, coins, and other memorabilia bearing his likeness are displayed.

He is still looked up to as a model by the Polish people and is regarded as a national hero.

3. Legends, Folklore, And Myths

The worldwide popularity of The Witcher books, games, and television shows has helped bring Polish mythology to a wider audience.

However, traditional Polish folklore has much more to offer than scary monster tales.

Since the Middle Ages, Polish culture has been defined by the rapid and strong adoption of Catholic doctrine. At the same time, Polish people maintained many of the paganism-inspired Slavic myths, tales, and beliefs of their ancestors.

One such story is that of Twardowski, a fellow who makes a deal with the devil in exchange for magical powers and then uses his wits to keep them and avoid damnation.

Certainly, many Christian symbols can be found here. What with all the blatant parallels to Faust and all!

However, ancient Pagan beliefs significantly influence the story’s portrayal of the devil and other supernatural forces.

This is why Polish mythology, especially when told to an audience from the West, can seem exotic and familiar.

4. Bolesawiec Porcelain, A Work Of Art

Poland is known internationally for a specific type of hand-made pottery that you may still need to become familiar with.

Bolesawiec, Poland, is known worldwide for its exquisite ceramics. Bolesawiec, located in Poland’s beautiful Lower Silesia region near the German border, has been a significant hub for traditional Polish ceramics for centuries.

If you’ve ever been to Poland, you know why Bolesawiec is so popular: the city has almost a monopoly on a type of traditional Polish art with whimsical, abstract patterns and excellent craftsmanship.

Because each item is one-of-a-kind and flawed in its own way, they are also rare.

Polish cities and tourist destinations all have public markets where you can buy pottery in the Bolesawiec style. But if you want a genuine article, you should go to Bolesawiec. Also, don’t forget to check out the local ceramics festival, held for nearly a full week every August.

It helps that the city is charming, with a lovely historic district where you can spend your time.

5. Pierogi

If we talk about Polish customs, we must include pierogi, right? So do yourself a favour and put down this book if you’ve never tried them.

Although these bite-sized treats are well-known across the globe, few people recognize them as part of Poland’s diverse and delicious culinary heritage.

This is most likely because Russian pierogi (pierogi ruskie in Polish) is the most popular variety. The most Polish thing you can think of is called a “pirog,” but in Russia, they eat something entirely different, and pierogi ruskies are the most Polish thing you can think of.

6. Kiełbasa

People worldwide know Poland for its pierogi, but in Poland, kiebasa is seen as the best snack. Any kind of meat could be used to make this ready-to-eat sausage.

U-shaped and quite substantial, kiebasy is a traditional Polish dish. Although whole ones are occasionally consumed, this is not the norm outside of a multi-course meal. So instead, divide it up into bite-sized pieces and pass them around the table.

7. Candy Bars Made Of Milk

Of course, you can’t get the best pierogi in the world at a grocery store; for the real deal, you must find a real Polish restaurant. Authentic milk bars are the best option for this.

Bary mleczne, or milk bars, are a type of eatery popular in Communist Poland. You can order simple meals by combining a few items from the daily menu, as in a canteen.

Traditional Polish dishes like gobki, stuffed with rice, meat, and vegetables and rolled in boiled cabbage, a staple at milk bars. The meals are known for having a lot of flavour for how cheap they are because they are made with tried-and-true methods and high-quality ingredients.

In addition, you won’t believe how cheap the food at a milk bar is.

A meal for two should be a maximum of a few dollars. This is why Poland is a rarity among European countries in that it is sometimes cheaper to eat out than to buy food at a grocery store.

That’s the definition of a win-win situation if I’ve ever heard one!

8. Bison

Currently, the eastern forests of Poland are home to the largest bison population in all of Europe except Belarus.

Please remember that I am referring to European bison, which is not to be confused with the more common American bison. Bison were nearly hunted to extinction in eastern Poland for their fur and meat, but a small population has since recovered there.

Many tourists visit Poland specifically to see these magnificent animals in their natural habitat. There’s a good reason why the bison is also Poland’s national animal.

9. This Forest Is The Oldest In Europe.

The Biaowiea Forest, on the Polish side of the border with Belarus, is home to most of Poland’s incredible animal population. The forest covers hundreds of square kilometres.

Biaowiea is one of the few original forests that still exist in Europe. Its ecological depths hold a microcosm of the prehistoric continent of Europe. It’s also the biggest of its kind.

Biaowiea is legally safeguarded because of its special status. As a result, the forest has been left largely undisturbed by human activity, allowing it to retain its natural beauty.

10. Solidarność

The word “solidarity” should be familiar to anyone old enough to recall the fall of the Iron Curtain. In its native Poland, Solidarno was a labour union that grew into a national civil rights movement.

People often say Solidarity helped eliminate Poland’s communist government by leading protests across the country and taking direct action. They indirectly contributed to the fall of the Eastern Bloc.

Solidarno co-founder and longtime leader Lech Wasa became the first democratically elected president of Poland after the country transitioned from communism in the 1990s.

Despite his retirement from politics, he is still a well-known figure in the country.

11. Gdańsk

The metropolitan area that includes the city of Gdask is the largest in northern Poland. It’s part of a tri-city region with Gdynia and Sopot.

Due to their strategic location on the coast of the Baltic Sea, these three cities have long served as a hub for European commerce.

Gdask, then known as Danzig, joined the Hanseatic League in the Middle Ages. However, the town’s cross-cultural interaction during this time continues to shape its identity.

Gdask is one of those places you can’t miss because of the remarkable synthesis of German and Polish traditions that can be seen in the city’s architecture, history, and landscape.

12. Kashubian

You might be surprised to learn that most Poles speak not only Polish. Poland’s neighbours speak Ukrainian, Belarusian, and Czech, but the country also has a number of minority languages that are spoken all over the country.

Kashubian is the most well-known of these varieties, and it is still spoken today in the country’s northern region, particularly in the Gdask region. Kashubian is spoken by a small but distinct ethnic group indigenous to this area; its speakers speak a language that is related to Polish.

Kashubian used to be thought of as just an old dialect because it is easy for Polish speakers to learn. Kashubians and their language were not officially separated from Polish until quite recently.

13. Sea Of The Baltic

Poland’s Baltic coast is renowned for its exceptional weather and stunning beaches and cliffs. There are national parks set aside to preserve some of these.

Even in the warmer months, I recommend going for a swim if you enjoy the cold and are used to it. However, the breathtaking scenery more than makes up for any shortcomings.

It’s not just the coastal areas of the mainland. Some of the finest spas and resorts in all of Europe can be found on the many Polish islands that dot the Baltic.

14. The Bdów Sand Dunes

Despite the common misconception that Poland is a snowy, treeless wasteland, the country has a lot more to offer than meets the eye. Of course, Poland has beautiful Baltic seascapes and lush islands, but did you know that Poland also has a desert?

I’m going, to be honest here. Because it lacks a distinctive microclimate and ecosystem, Bdów cannot be properly classified as a desert. In southern Poland, far from the coast, there is a vast expanse of sand covering a few dozen square kilometres.

The retreating glacier at the end of the last ice age created this extraordinary region of Central Europe.

15. Manners In Poland

As I’ve already said, Poland’s culture developed uniquely because both Catholic ideas and old Slavic traditions influenced it. In addition, eastern and Western perspectives add depth to the overall picture.

However, the stark distinctions between Polish society’s norms and those of the rest of Europe frequently surprise visitors from other nations.

In Poland, for instance, it is not uncommon for men to make a few mildly chivalrous moves toward women upon first meeting them.

In greeting, many men still kiss the hand of a woman.

Poles are fond of greeting one another with “dzie dobry” (good day) in public spaces like elevators, stairwells, and office hallways. After that, you can count on a firm handshake and plenty of eye contact if there is any further conversation.

In addition, remember that it’s impolite to refuse an elderly or pregnant woman a seat on public transportation.

You can count on being called out when you do something wrong, and I mean that literally. When speaking in public, Poles don’t hold back and say exactly what’s on their minds.

16. Those Looks

If you ever find yourself in Poland and notice everyone staring intently into your eyes while you’re out and about, that’s perfectly normal. Nothing is wrong, and this isn’t one of those dreams where you wake up naked.

This is another example of the distinctive Polish style. Polish people tend to stare a little bit when you pass them on the street, introduce yourself, or interact with them, no matter how brief.

It is not a sign of anger, annoyance, or any other negative emotion. However, the Polish custom of making eye contact can be a bit strange for visitors.

17. Vodka

Some people can’t stand it, but it’s common knowledge that many Poles consume it neat. But, of course, I am referring to the local favourite, vodka, or orwódka.

Polish vodka is some of the best in the world, and while many people believe it was invented in Russia, there is ample historical evidence to suggest that the honour should go to Poland instead.

If you consider yourself a drink expert, you would be doing yourself a great disservice by not giving it a shot at least once. This Polish memento can also serve as a thoughtful present for friends and family.

18. Toruskie Pierniki

There may be a trend developing. Polish cuisine is among the best in the world. That includes desserts, by the way! Wonderfully spiced and sweetened with honey, gingerbread cookies called pierniki are a Polish speciality.

While gingerbread cookies and cakes are typically associated with the holiday season, Pierniki can be enjoyed any time of the year in Russia. If you ask me, that’s a good thing.

19. Films From Poland

Poland has made important contributions to cinema in Europe and beyond for over a hundred years. Krzysztof Kielowski, Roman Polanski, and Andrzej Wajda are some great Polish directors who have gained international renown.

Walerian Borowczyk, an “artist-pornographer,” is one of the more divisive figures in Polish cinema.

Poland has secured its place in the history of world cinema with a body of work that includes both commercial successes and groundbreaking experimental works.

20. Kraków

Kraków, the country’s former capital and one of the most visited places in Poland, is a major attraction for many tourists. You can see why; the buildings in the city’s historic core span centuries of design, from the early Middle Ages to neoclassicism in the 19th.

Kraków is also connected to numerous significant events in Polish history and folklore. There’s an old tale about a gigantic dragon that supposedly resided in this area back in the 1300s. Wawel Castle, once home to Poland’s monarchs, is still a popular tourist destination today.

There were also some of Poland’s darkest moments here. Kraków was the location of a significant ghetto during WWII, and Oskar Schindler’s factory was located on the city’s outskirts.

The Polish concentration camp of Auschwitz-Birkenau

The solemn reminder of one of Europe’s darkest chapters is about an hour away—the Auschwitz concentration camp. It’s not hard to get to Kraków, but you should check your stomach before you go.

21. Wrocław

Wrocaw is one of Poland’s major cities, despite receiving less attention from foreigners than Kraków and Warsaw. As the capital of the prosperous Lower Silesia region, Wrocaw is often cited as the most desirable place to settle in all of Poland.

Wrocaw, formerly known as Breslau, was the capital of German-occupied Poland until 1945. Wrocaw is one of Poland’s most prosperous cities because of its rapid growth since the war’s end.

If you ever find yourself in Wrocaw, beware the local dwarf population. Dwarf statuettes and miniature figurines can be found all over the city, especially in and around the central area. Dwarfs are constantly being added, and the search for them has become a sport for some. But, can you count them all?

22. Warsaw

Warsaw is the Polish capital and the most famous Polish city abroad. Warsaw, Poland’s capital and largest city, and the site of some of the bloodiest fighting of World War II, has received its fair share of media attention.

By 1945, Warsaw, unlike other Polish cities, was largely in ruins. Even after the war ended, life in Warsaw was notoriously difficult compared to the rest of Poland due to the Russian occupation.

Warsaw has undergone an almost unbelievable transformation in recent years. The city is more vibrant now than ever before, both economically and culturally. Warsaw hosts several important festivals throughout the year, including a jazz festival and a film festival that are known all over the world. In addition, it has some of the best restaurants in Poland and a stunning historic district.

23. Amber

Polish amber is one of the country’s oldest and most successful exports. Amber jewellery, first created in ancient Poland, quickly gained popularity across Europe.

Amber products and souvenirs first became popular in the Gdask area and other Baltic coast cities, but now you can find them all over Poland.

24. Bloki

After WWII ended, Poland pioneered a new type of low-cost, prefabricated communal apartment housing. These mass-produced apartments, or “bloki” as the locals lovingly refer to them, became a huge hit, much like their Soviet Union counterparts.

People left their bloki in droves around the turn of the millennium for a taste of urban “Western” life, but sentimentality has recently drawn many back. As a result, many bloki have been updated and repainted in bright colours and patterns over the past decade due to this trend.

Blokis have a more communal feel than standard apartments thanks to their socialist roots. A council of tenants runs the whole block, which usually has a community garden and public services like kiosks, schools, and kindergartens that everyone uses.

Bloki tends to congregate in groups that can encompass entire blocks. These are called blokowiska in Polish.

25. Stunning Mountain Scenery

The varied topography of Poland is one of the country’s most striking features. This is fantastic news for hikers.

Poland’s varied landscapes include the Sudety Mountains in the country’s southwestern corner, the internationally renowned Tatra Mountains, and the Bieszczady Mountains in its southeastern corner (also home to their own national park).
