Traveler reviews

Fine trip that was very well organised and with a great guide
Fine trip that was very well organised and with a great guide. And nice to end the trip with the thermal baths. However too many souvenir-shops for my taste in Zakopane and on top of the funicular ride.
Great day out!
Great experience. Really good admission fee for the day trip. Length of visit about 10.5 hours from 8.25am pick up to 7pm drop off. Really good atmosphere and mini bus ride of about 20 people. Stepan (apologise if spelt wrong) was a great guide and Lucas was a great driver. About 1.5 hour drive out of Krakow then stops to see the wooden house, goat cheese and vodka tasting and then into Zakopane. There is a funicular up to the mountain at Zakopane and then the town to explore it was definitely more crowded at the top of the mountain but a lovely view. The thermal spa was a highlight lots of areas to explore and the 16+ area was so relaxing and chill!
Highlight of our trip!!
Our Zakopane day trip was absolutely fantastic, and our guide, Niko, made it even more special. He was incredibly friendly, informative, and funny, making everyone feel comfortable from the very start. Niko shared some brilliant recommendations for places to eat in Kraków, which we really appreciated. The breathtaking views in Zakopane were unforgettable and were definitely one of the highlights of our trip. Thank you, Niko, for making the day so enjoyable and memorable. Your enthusiasm, knowledge, and kindness really made this one of the best experiences of our holiday. We had an amazing day and would highly recommend this tour!
