5.00absolutely brilliant experience, our driver oskar was extremely friendly and chatty and offered many recommendations throughout the day. communication before and during the activity was clear making the experience much easier. the atmosphere in the spa was great, it was very busy but easily found quieter pools including over 16/18 areas. Extremely worth the money would fully recommend.
Fantastic trip!

5.00Although I have vowed never to use viator again after they have let us down with a scam operator (comfort tours cracow) this tour provided by cracow top tours was fantastic. The tour guide was superb, very knowledgeable, very accommodating and friendly. The tour was planned out superbly with enough time to take stuff in, we wasn't rushed and it just felt like we were getting exactly what we had paid for. It was that good we are actually looking at planning a short break to Zakopane at a later date. So well done and thankyou for such a wonderful tour. When we return I will just go straight through this company and skip Viator
Excellent trip out. Beautiful views. Tour guy Oscar was very good. Very friendly. Good English language. Would recommend

5.00Oskar was great, we had an amazing day. Zakapane is incredible , there’s loads to see. Vodka at 11am was fun! . The cheese was great ( unsmoked!). The wooden village was beautiful. I would highly recommend this trip for a great day out. The spa/ swimming pools was like nothing I’ve ever seen in England , beers outside in a heated pool, what can be wrong with that !. Oskar the tour guide was really lovely and really helpful and made our day brilliant, he even let us set foot over the boarder to Slovakia which made my day!. Thanks for a brilliant day. Claire
Highly recommend this company
