Spend your afternoon and evening in the polish mountains.
Visit Zakopane - town surrounded by Tatra Mountains. It is famous for its characteristic, local culture connected with the life of highlanders in Podhale region. It is also the skiing capital of Poland. Krupowki - the most famous street in Zakopane offers many traditional bazaars where you can shop for souvenirs or try local food like the smoked cheese called Oscypek.
In Chocholow village not only you can see the traditional wooden houses built by highlanders a long time ago but it is also a place where the huge thermal baths complex is located.

5.00Me and my mum went with Legendary Tours for the salt mine and Zakopane. For the salt mine we had the amazing Michal who hyped us and gave information without spoiling anything. For Zakopane we had Bon Jovi (although he kept calling himself Mayer) who guided us throughout the day and was full of local knowledge. We also used this company when we visited in 2023 and they are just as fantastic as ever

5.00Matthew was our tour guide. He was amazing. Very safe and courteous driver and very knowledgeable about where we were going, what to do and also gave recommendations of places to go the rest of our holiday. Took us to an authentic vodka and cheese place rather than a commercial one
Thermal baths and tour guide both incredible. Don't offer a service you will not fulfill to your customers is awful.

3.00The tour I booked stated clearly that it includes a vodka tasting and cheese tasting but the tour went fully without any of that and feel a bit ripped off and taken advantage off, paying for something that ultimately wasn't included.
Great Zakopane Tour

5.00From pick to drop this was one of the best experiences we have done. I must give full credit for the that to our host,Mateusz. From getting us to the ski lift before the buses arrived to general advice for our remaining stay in Krakow he was very helpful and a brilliant tour guide. He is a credit to the company! The tour itself is great, you get the experience of Zakopane and the mountains at your own pace and then an afternoon of relaxation in the thermal baths which I will definitely revisit. We are already planning our next trip to Zakopane and won't hesitate to use this tour operator again.
Stunning experience
