Unforgettable experience - We had an excellent tour of zakopane, and thermal baths.
We had Olaf as our tour guide, who was great for giving us information and history of local towns we were passing, making the timely journey interesting, engaging and short
Also, the thermal baths were extremely relaxing after a long day of walking and touring the zakopane city and gubolowka
We would definitely return again
Thanks Olaf and Robert again for the great experience:)

Don't worry about Get your guide reviews - I booked a day trip to Zakopane through get your guide and had a few reservations following reading reviews. However I needn't have worried. Lucio contacted me the evening before confirming pick up time and location. He arrived on time and explained every aspect of what the day would involve. Lucio sent us messages throughout the day regarding essentials such as how to open our lockers at the thermal spa, which i found very helpful. The day ran smoothly from start to finish and was my favourite day of my trip! Lucio was very friendly and knowledgeable, even letting us know we could still message him if we had any questions ect after the trip had finished. I would 100% recommend this trip for anyone else looking to go.

Fun & Full! - It was a long day but a lot of fun! The vodka and cheese pairing was amazing, the cheese was so fresh and we could have had more! The thermal baths are busy but once you're in, it's a relaxing experience.

Zakopane tour with thermal baths and cheese and Vodka tasting was a brilliant day - We had a fantastic time on our tour. The traditional Polish village of Chochołów was beautiful, with their traditional wooden houses.
The cheese and Vodka tasting was brilliant fun, with the tour group all toasting and drinking together.
The views from the top of the Zakopane railway were stunning. We were a little disappointed in the town as it was very touristy, with the same shops and food stalls repeated all the way through the streets. We were hoping for a more traditional place.
The highlight of the day was the thermal baths at ChoChołówskie Termy. These baths had multiple outdoor pools and jacuzzi pools along with a huge amount of indoor pools, water slides, pool bars, restaurants and even spas (although we didn't try the spas as they are definitely not for children as they are naked spas). You are given a locker band which let's you open and close your locker as many times as you want to, but also this band is used to pay for any drinks or food you want to have. You pay the balance off when exiting either by cash or card.
We would like to thank our guide Niko very much. He made the day absolutely fantastic. He was full of energy and information. There was nothing that he hadn't thought of and was very helpful and considerate to all of the guests on the tour. He helped people to get the most out of every experience and truly made our day that much more special. So thank you again Niko.

“Alternative” spas - The facility is excellent the services excellent my low grade depends only on the confusion of the place which has nothing to do with my conception of spa, a place of peace and relaxation. Here she was a bitch
