Great trip. The scenery of Zakopane is amazing. Our tour guide, Lukasz, was great. He accommodated us the entire day and took great care of us. Great conversation to and from Zakopane and I would highly recommend Lukasz.

What a beautiful ride up the mountains to see this spectacular swimming area, there was 3-4 levels of thermal baths (like being in a warm bath) with restaurants sun loungers, indoor and out door pools with swim up bars, as well as jacuzzis, jets, whirlpool, slides and saunas We spent 8 hours there and could have stayed longer it was beautiful as well as the surrounding scenery! It is great for kids and adults a like and I would definitely go back. The company who took us with a private driver were fantastic, lots of leg room spacious Mercedes with room for 8 Janek our driver was brilliant and kept in touch so we knew times of pick up and returns. Highly recommend
What a great day out. Tomasz, our tour guide, confirmed our pick-up times the day before and was there prompt for the start of our trip. We'd had a reasonably heavy night, so we fell asleep for the journey to Chocholow after getting on the minibus. From there, we went for our cheese tasting, and Tomasz sorted us out with a shot of raspberry vodka, well, two shots, one for each leg, as he put it. The hair of the dog and all that, haha. From there, we headed to Zakopne and rode up the mountain to Gubalowka. It was a lovely sunny day, unusually warm weather for February, but it meant the views were amazing. After this, we had some free time in Zakopane to grab a bite to eat and wander around the town and shops. Once we were fed and watered, we headed back to Tomasz, who then took us to the thermal baths. It was bustling as it was the end of the Polish winter break. We still had a great time. We had 3 hours here, just enough time to enjoy the warm water and relax in the bubbles. It takes a bit of time to get used to where everything is; it's on different levels, up and down stairs, but there are lifts for those less able. After our time in the baths, we enjoyed a quick drink in the foyer bar before meeting with Tomasz for the journey home. Overall, it was a great day out, and I highly recommend it. Tomasz was excellent and friendly; when needed, he checked us in, got our tickets and explained everything. He was there if we needed him but also gave us space to enjoy our day. A 10/10 experience to see a little more of Poland whilst visiting Krakow. Thank you, Tomasz, for a wonderful day.
We had a great day trip to Zakopane. Our guide Mike was personable and knowledgeable. Would highly recommend this tour.
Tomasz was an excellent guide, prompt, and flexible. Zakopane was beautiful in the snow and very cold at the top! Walking through the Christmas market and town was lovely. Then to the thermal baths, where Tomasz gave us clear directions on the protocol! We took the full 3 hours in the baths but a little less time in Zakopane because it was so cold, and we skipped the cheese tasting, as we were too full from breakfast. Tomasz was willing to go with the flow of our needs. Highly recommend!
Very pleasant day out, the driver was friendly and knowledgeable, it was nice to see a different side of Poland.. we really enjoyed the spa, but it wasn't as expected. It was very busy so all the pools were full but saying that we still had fun. If I was to go again I would pick a weekend. Highly recommend the tour and the guide
A fantastic day out. Tomasz was the perfect guide and driver. Nothing was too much trouble for him and he did everything he could to ensure we had a wonderful day. His vehicle was comfortable and immaculate. Thoroughly recommend this tour
A fantastic day with Tomasz who was friendly and polite throughout the day. Our first stop was a village where we were told about craftsmanship. Next stop was the cheese tasting followed by Zakapone. Tomasz walked us to the main town and ensured we knew how to get back to our meeting point for the ride up the funicular. Great views were had. Next stop the thermal baths both upper and lower levels were warm, with plenty of jacuzzis available. Our final stop was back at the hotel. Great day and would certainly recommend.
By far one of the best, most professional tour experiences I’ve ever had. The day was well planned and thought out, and our tour guide Jakob was nothing short of spectacular. He kept us updated with what we were doing, how long it would take to get there, all while being super polite and friendly. I would definitely recommend this trip to anyone wanting a wonderful time outside for Krakow
5 out of 5 - fantastic day with Kuba! He was the best driver/tour guide and really made the day fun and interesting. We had a wonderful time and loved all the stops! Highly recommended!
Wonderful and peaceful experience during winter time when you have the tour all to yourself, at reasonable price! The small villages were fantastic stops! I had high expectations of the thermal bath (I imagined Blue Lagoon type) but it was swarmed with families and had that spring break party type. So whilst fun it was not a relaxation I was hoping for.
We had an excellent trip with Tomasz. He was organised and polite throughout. He have us plenty of information but also gave us plenty of space and time to relax and enjoy the trip. The car was clean and comfortable. He took care of everything. He has excellent English and a good sense of humor. This was definitely our favourite trip and one I would recommend to everyone to do.
We would definitely recommend this tour! Thomas the tour guide was so friendly and spoke very good English. The tour itself was brilliant start to finish, it was great to see some traditional polish cultures and point of history along the way to! Thomas made the whole day run soomthly for us tourists, and nothing was too much trouble. We really couldn't have wishes for a better day or tour guide, if you're heading to Krakow this is a must do trip!!
It was a great pleasure to have Thomas as our guide for this full day your. Thomas was really knowledge and shared many interesting facts about each area that we visited. Pick up was punctual and the ride to and from zakopane was very smooth. We were blessed with great weather and the sights were phenomenal. Wished we could have more time at gubalowka to try out the gravity ride. You can rent towels at the thermal bath for 5 pln and do bring your swimwear. We wished we had taken a photo with Thomas for this great memory.
We were picked up from our hotel doorstep & embarked on a sightseeing journey like no other. We passed picturesque villages on our way to Zakopane and stopped to taste Oscypek cheese along the way. Zakopane is a tourist heaven, albeit not too crowded during the time that we visited. The ride up Gubalowka hill with the funicular was fun and we were greeted with spectacular views of the Tatras on top. Our day concluded at the Chochołowska Thermal Baths - an experience which we are unlikely to ever forget and would love to do again. I highly recommend this tour.
A wonderful day out thanks to Thomas! We felt really relaxed and at ease and he managed to turn what could be a busy long day into an easy one where everything was taken care of for us, really good way to see Zakopane and the baths in one day, wonderful service from him, I’d absolutely recommend this!
Had a fantastic day yesterday with Tomasz as our host and guide. Tomasz is a friendly and knowledgeable guide who has the trip planned perfectly down to each second. We had a stop at Chochołow, a beautiful local village with perfect picture opportunities, then a stop at Bacówka to try some osypeck cheese and flavoured vodka before making our way to Zakopane for 2 hours free time to explore the picturesque village and time for a bite to eat. Then the cable ride to the top of the mountain for stunning rolling views of Zakopane and the surrounding area. Finally a stop at Termy Chochołow for the thermal baths which had views of the mountains and the warmth of the baths were just right! A brilliant trip with Fanta views at each drop off. Definitely worth doing!!
Thomas was a fantastic host and made us feel very safe and made sure the trip went smoothly. He arranges everything for you and is really helpful. Would strongly recommend this trip you get so much for your money!Very happy couple. The trip it self was amazing beautiful views ! And it was lovely to relax in the spa at the end of the day and we even got to taste some highland cheese and vodka!
Amazing! If you go to krakow and don't do this trip you are missing out. So worth the money. Little stops in between for eg stopped to taste homemade cheese oscypek and vodka (cranberry and lemon), then stopped at beautiful markets. The cable car takes approx 5 minutes and the views from the top are unreal even on a cold cloudy day. Finally the thermal baths omg!!! They are just stunning and even a bar inside the large thermal bath where we spent 3 hours. Our driver Thomas was just outstanding. He was so kind didnt rush us at all. Showed us every little detail in the thermal baths before he left us. Took our shopping back to the car for us before we went on the cable car. I would recommend this trip to anyone visiting krakow and definitely get Thomas as your driver.
This was an amazing day tour!! Highly recommended. Our guide and driver, Thomas, was wonderful. There was lots of Poland to see on the drive to Zakopane and once there so much to see and take in. The cheese stop was so fun and it was interesting to see the Polish ways of the highlanders. Once in Zakopane, we got almost 2 hours of free time to explore and have lunch. It’s a great mountain town with lots of shops and tons of local restaurants to choose from. The ride on the funicular was fun and the views were fantastic! The best part of the day, though, was spending time in the thermal pools! They were relaxing and very much enjoyable!
This was a amazing way to see Poland beautiful countryside. The Diver Thomas, was on time, professional but approachable. He attentive to all the requirements throughout the tour. I would recommend this tour to everyone. Fantastic day out!
Thomas was absolutely lovely! I did the tour on my own and I felt so safe and it was a wonderful experience from start to finish. Thomas gives you time to go exploring, but organising all your tickets and stops. It’s a great balance!
This was a great way to get out of the city and see some of the amazing countryside of Poland. Thomas (driver) was prompt, professional and attentive to all the requirements throughout the tour.
Un accompagnateur, guide très professionnel et ..sympathique. Chauffeur émérite et guide très organisé, Thomas, m'a fait découvrir la région et ses saveurs avec classe et déférence. Bravo et merci!
Dégustation, visite et surtout...les bains de Chocholow ! quelle détente.... Thomas a tout organisé pour que cette journée soit parfaite. Ses explications, son accompagnement à chaque étape sont une réelle plus value : pas d'attente pour les billets de téléphérique, explication et accompagnement dans les thermes et sentiment de confiance dans le véhicule. Tout en nous laissant nos moments à 2 quand il le faut. Je recommande vivement ce tour avec Thomas !
Thomas was very kind and attentive We were able to discover Zakopane, taste local produce and enjoy the thermal baths. We had a very good day, I highly recommend!
Thomas, the driver has been adorable from the beginning to the end of our day. I recommend to all French passing through Krakow this excursion. Local products tasting program / village visit / market visit / thermal bath. I absolutely do not regret choosing this excursion. I recommend 100%. Thanks again 🇫🇷
