A truly memorable day!

5.00My wife and I enjoyed a wonderful day trip from Krakow to Zakopane. The journey took us through some spectacular countryside where the Tatra mountains became a dominant and impressive feature. During the journey we stopped off at intervals to visit some extremely interesting locations where we were shown traditional forms of architecture and were made aware of local customs and traditions. We particularly enjoyed looking at the churches and visiting a cheese maker and a shepherd’s shelter. Here we sampled some freshly smoked cheese, together with a shot of plum vodka - wonderful! Zacapane’s market and streets were bright, colourful and busy. We really enjoyed the positivity and energy of the place. We travelled up a mountain side to the terminus of a funicular railway which added even more excitement to the day! When we reached the top we were met with the most spectacular views of the mountains and the valley below. It was truly awe inspiring! Up there, on the top, we immediately walked into another market where the energy and bustle was as it was below. In need of refreshment we visited a restaurant called the Po Widoki, where we were served a delicious glass of hot honey and ginger tea, together with a portion of tasty and filling dumplings! We experienced a genuinely memorable day thanks to our excellent tour guide, Oscar. He showed very good communication skills, as well as a sound knowledge and understanding of his itinerary. Throughout the day he was attentive, pleasant, patient and thoughtful. Oscar takes pride in his vehicle which he appears to keep clean and well maintained. He showed that he is a skilful driver who can confidently navigate the roads well. We felt safe and comfortable in his hands. We thank him for this and appreciate his professionalism!

5.00⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An unforgettable day from Kraków to Zakopane! This tour was absolutely amazing from start to finish. Everything was so well organised, making the journey comfortable, relaxing, and full of beautiful moments. The drive itself was scenic, but nothing prepared me for the breathtaking views of the Tatra Mountains — truly something you have to see to believe. Zakopane has such a unique charm, from its traditional wooden houses and local markets to the incredible mountain atmosphere. Walking through the town, tasting local cheese, and learning about the culture made the experience even more special. The highlight for me was definitely the panoramic views — standing there, surrounded by nature, felt peaceful and unforgettable. Our guide was knowledgeable, friendly, and made the whole experience fun while sharing interesting facts and stories along the way. You could really tell they cared about making sure everyone enjoyed the day to the fullest. If you’re visiting Kraków, this tour is an absolute must. It’s the perfect escape from the city, a chance to connect with nature, culture, and unforgettable scenery all in one day. I would 100% recommend this tour to anyone looking for a memorable and well-organised experience. 🇵🇱🏔️✨

5.00We had such a lovely day. Oskar from start to finish was a great host and looked after us very well. We were made to feel comfortable from start to finish. We were picked up at the hotel on time provided with snacks for the journey and was happy for us to stop for a coffee on the way. Oskar went above and beyond and made a very special day even more so. Thank you so much! And we hope to see you again on our return. Worth booking private tours as you get to see the little gems that you might not know a bigger tour.
Absolutely stunning views, and the best tour guide, Oscar.
