Itinerary
The place we leave from. I pick up my clients from the places they have chosen. A 15-minute stop that you will use to buy coffee, which will accompany you for the next hour and a half. This is how long the route to Zakopane takes.
The Gubałówka Funicular is a popular cable railway in Zakopane, a resort town in the Tatra Mountains of southern Poland. This funicular railway takes passengers from the center of Zakopane to the top of Gubałówka Hill, a well-known vantage point offering stunning panoramic views of the surrounding mountains, including the Tatra range, and the town below.
Start your day by strolling down this lively pedestrian street, filled with charming shops, cafes, and restaurants. It's the heart of Zakopane and a great place to soak in the local atmosphere.
Wielka Krokiew is a renowned ski jumping hill located in Zakopane, Poland. It is one of the most famous and iconic ski jumping venues in the world, attracting both international athletes and large numbers of spectators, especially during major competitions.
The Chapel of the Sacred Heart of Jesus in Jaszczurówka is one of the most beautiful works of Zakopane-style sacred architecture. It is located near the Tatra National Park. The chapel was designed in 1904-1907, and the building material is mainly wood, which combines folk elements with modernism. The interior and architectural details are full of references to the culture of Podhale.
The term "bacówka" refers to a shepherd's hut used in the highlands, especially for cheese production. "Bacówka Zakopiańczyk" offers 100% sheep cheese, including oscypek cheese with a quality certificate. An additional attraction is the possibility of feeding great looking sheep and rams.
Termy Chochołowskie is one of the largest and most modern thermal bath complexes in Poland, located in the village of Chochołów, near Zakopane in the Podhale region. It is a popular destination for both relaxation and recreation, offering a wide range of facilities that utilize the region's natural geothermal waters.
Step back in time and discover a place filled with history, art, and soul. In a 200-year-old wooden house in the heart of Chochołów, a local woodcarver continues a centuries-old tradition, crafting wooden sculptures by hand every day. His beautiful works — mostly sacred figures — can be found in nearby churches and museums. During your visit, you’ll have the chance to watch the artist at work, learn about traditional woodcarving techniques, and explore his perfectly preserved wooden home. The house, both inside and out, has remained completely original, offering a rare glimpse into the authentic spirit of Podhale’s wooden architecture and artistry. An unforgettable cultural experience — one of those rare places that truly have a soul.

Oskar was great! He reached out weeks in advance to confirm details, adjust the itinerary to what I wanted to see and stayed in touch the entire time. Meeting in person he was super friendly, spoke great English and picked me up in a really nice Lexus - overall it was a great experience and you honestly can't go wrong working with him.
Oskar was a great guide! He was very accommodating and made sure we had a great time! I would highly recommend his services!
Oscar made this trip so special was thoroughly reliable great communication, would thoroughly recommend especially the stop off for cheese and cranberry
From the first contact with Oskar, our chauffeur, to the last we could not fault his communication, organisation and professionalism. We asked Oskar to change some of the itinerary which he did willingly. The car was extremely clean and comfortable and snacks and drinks were provided should we require them during the day. The locations we visited were iconic of the region and we were given plenty of free time to peruse the different aspects whilst Oskar patiently waited for us to finish our excursions. Instead of the Thermal Baths we opted to have a horse drawn sleigh ride and even though the snow was quite scarce on the ground we managed to have a very enjoyable time. We would highly recommend this company and are happy to report that we came away with some wonderful memories.
My 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!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 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. 🇵🇱🏔️✨
We 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.
This was our Christmas weekend away with fabulous friends, Oscar took us on a memorable journey Yesterday, all the places we visited from the little hut with cheese pastries, the quaint church onto Zakopane with the funicular in the Tatra Mountains, and onto the thermal spa, the post stunning views, best tour guides with so much knowledge. 100% recommend Oscar and his tour.
We had a fantastic day with our tour guide Oskar. He was amazing from start to finish, we had plenty of time and didn't feel rushed at all.
It was so nice to see the countryside outside of Krakow on our drive to beautiful Zakopane. Our tour guide Oskar was fantastic!!!

Byliśmy całą rodzina w Zakopanem. Oskar ma wszystko zaplanowane po kolei i co do minuty ale zgodził sie gdy poprosiliśmy o dodatkową godzinę na Gubałówce. Całą podróż przebiegła sprawnie a Zakopane to miejsce które koniecznie trzeba odwiedzić będąc w Krakowie. Polecamy
