5.00Very fun experience Milo was our driver and guide for the day. Very punctual on time when and where the pick up point was and very helpful with tip and places to go in Zakopane. Nice friendly atmosphere in the city and to get food/drinks was very reasonably priced. The thermal spa was a nice finish to the day and wasn’t very busy as it was during the week. Would definitely recommend especially for partners and even group trip 8 in our group as a whole felt like a really nice number.
Excellent day out

5.00What a lovely young man Bart is. Kept in touch with information the day before, confirming pickup time and place. We were picked up outside our apartment at the agreed time. He taught us so much of Polish history on our journey. He kept us updated throughout the day of our travel plans and stops. He even took us into the thermal springs to explain how the system worked as we would have been clueless.
Fantastic!!!

5.00We loved our tour of Zakopane and would thoroughly recommend it! We attended the tour with our daughter who is 9, she loved it too. We visited the traditional wooden houses, cheese tasting, cable car ride, visiting the main tourist street and the thermal baths. A wonderful 11 hour day with a fabulous tour guide - Daniel! Daniel was very knowledgeable, courteous and helpful with superb English. We loved soaking up and learning about some traditional Polish culture. The vehicle we were collected in was comfortable and clean and Daniel’s driving was comfortable and safe. Although this was a full on 11 hour day, it did not feel like it and Daniel allowed us ample time in each area to enjoy each activity. Thank you so much for a wonderful tour Daniel! 😊
Great!!! 🤩🤩🤩
