Itinerary
Your perfect tour will begin with transportation from Krakow to Zakopane. Pick-up in a pre-selected vehicle from the agreed location (hotel or other address of your choice) at the specified date and time. Transport takes approximately 1.5 - 2 hours depending on the prevailing weather and road conditions.
The first point on the tour route will be the historic wooden village of Chocholow. The settlers of this place still follow highlander traditions. One of them is annual washing of building walls with soapy water, thanks to which wooden structures that are over 100 years old still look like new. It's an amazing place and there are many beautiful places to take photos, so it's worth spending some time walking here.
The next but equally important stop is "Bacowka" - a shepherd's hut (small cheese factory). This is where you can taste a piece of smoked sheep's cheese straight from the fire and a glass of Polish vodka. This combination is definitely what you need to find this unique taste.
A few minutes further by vehicle and you finally reach to the down station of the Gubalowka Funicular. Here you will receive your individual entry ticket, and the cable car will take you to the top of the mountain.
From the top of Mount Gubalowka there is a breathtaking view of the entire panorama of the Polish Tatra Mountains. Apart from the viewpoint, you will also find many tourist attractions here, such as a gravity slide (remember that it is closed in winter), souvenir shops, cafes and restaurants. You can order something to drink or eat here and enjoy the wonderful view.
After the ride down, you'll reach the heart of the city. Zakopane Town is the most popular mountain tourist resort in the Polish Tatra Mountains. Zakopane is full of shops with local products, souvenir stalls and restaurants with local specialties. You will find all this on the main street Krupowki - where you will have free time.
An interesting photo stop will also be the Ski Jumping Hill, where the Winter Ski Jumping World Championships are held every year.
A point that is also worth visiting during a trip to Zakopane will be the old wooden chapel Jaszcurowka, which is a perfect example of Zakopane's sacred architecture.
After a whole day full of excitement, the driver takes you back to Krakow.

Excellent from start to finish, Kacperro was our driver and tour guide and was very nice and informative. He was very funny and made the trip even more enjoyable.

This tour was the highlight of my stay in Kraków. Kacperro was an excellent tour guide. He was friendly and made the tour interesting. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone. The views at the Zakaopane Tatra Mountains were amazing. The village where we had free time had great places to eat and drink and also a market to look around. Thanks again Kaceppro.
A fantastic day out

Absolutely fantastic day! Cannot recommend enough! Started the day with cheese and vodka and ended it at the bathhouse with yet more vodka. Along the way we had Kacperro (great name, great guy) who was informative, welcoming, and honestly just a brilliant driver/ guide. He got us where we needed to be, made sure we were fully informed, and got us back without a single hiccup. Would do the whole thing again if you guaranteed he was our guide.
Fantastic day, highly recommended
