Full description

Start your day trip in the morning where you will be picked up at the reception of your hotel. Enjoy a 2-hour drive to the lovely village of Zakopane while your English-speaking driver provides commentary along the way. After arriving in Zakopane, you'll have 5 hours of free time to explore the village on your own. You can try delicious Polish cuisine, or visit the local market to admire the creations of Polish craftsmen and try the popular smoked cheese. Enter a wooden villa built in a traditional architectural style, or walk through the picturesque streets — the choice is yours. Select the option including tickets for the funicular railway and travel to the top of Gubałówka mountain. Enjoy the view of the village and admire the peaks of the Polish Tatra Mountains around you. During your visit, the driver will wait for you, and after 5 hours you travel back to Krakow together.

the pick up to begin with was on time and the comfort for the journey was first class. As for zakopane it's self what a beautiful place to visit. We started our visit with our trip on the funicular railway not knowing what to expect at the top and we were blown away with the spectacular views and the amount of amenities and stalls available aswell as the amount of different activities you would be able to do. We then went for a walk around the town centre that was beautifully well kept with lots of different stalls, shops and restaurants to visit. then on our journey back our driver took us on a slight detour so that we could stop at a look out point with spectacular views

Vår sjåfør Krystian møtte presis ved avreise. Kjørte oss trygt fram til Zakopane, der vi gikk noen timer på egen hånd. Fikk god informasjon om ting vi burde gjøre, og hvor det var Krystian ga god service, og vi ble kjørt tilbake når vi selv ønsket(litt før avtalt tidspunkt). En fin tur

We are delighted with all the care and attention that Dominika and Marcel had with us during the entire trip. The Communication was unambiguous, and they were available at all times to answer any questions and adjust the necessary details. Excellent professional conveyed peace and security. We had a wonderful tour. I highly recommend it because I want everyone to have a wonderful time in Poland as we had.
