Lovely day thank you - Great way to combine many sites into one day if you’re limited on time. Wish I could have spent more time at Zakopane, so I guess I’ll just have to come back. The cheese tasting wasn’t for me, but gave it a go and was interesting to learn about. Dawid our driver was lovely. Fully recommend!

Amazing Zakopane Tour with Stanislaw! - My partner and I had a fantastic time on the Zakopane tour. The experience started right on time and lasted the perfect amount of hours. Our guide, Stanislaw, was incredibly dynamic and shared a wealth of fascinating historical insights throughout the journey. The tour covered many beautiful spots around Zakopane, each more picturesque than the last. We truly enjoyed every moment and would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the area! Florencia

It takes around 2 hours... - It takes around 2 hours to get to your destination going was full of little stops and experiences. Our driver Piotr was full of knowledge and was very chatty. We were a mixed group from lots of different countries but all felt at ease with each other. Love the what’s ap information for tickets etc and a way to keep in touch if we experienced any issue. A long day fabulous value for money

Highly recommend - Lovely day out. Roughly 2 hours outside Krakow, visit a beautiful old church, then have cheese tasting with wonderful cranberry jam and cherry vodka. Onto the mountains, up the funicular railway to where there are lots of food and market stalls. Back down to Zakopane, a lively square with more stalls on the way and loads of places to eat.

Must do - Ivan was such a fun guide! Mixing modern understanding with history we were given a great mix of communication while having a laugh along the way. Ivan made the process of picking us up and dropping us back to our accommodation so smooth. Zakopane was a beautiful location and we highly recommend visiting.

FANTASTIC TRIP WITH EXCELLENT GUIDE!!! - Everything went well from start to finish. We got picked up from the hotel and Petir introduced himself and told us we had a couple of pick ups on the way. We met a nice set of people to share the day with. As we went through the day Petir was very informative and interesting. At one point I'd left my hat in the toilet and he was going to stop off on the way back. We were at Zakopane for 3 hours and when we got back to the bus he presented me with my hat!!! He'd gone back and got it for me and I was over the moon!! Lovely trip made extra special with Petir who went above and beyond!!!Well worth doing!!!

Pleasant Tour, Poor Guide - While the sights we saw on this tour were enjoyable, we were very disappointed with our ‘guide’ Lukasz. He was totally disinterested in his passengers and barely spoke to us at all and acted more like a taxi driver than a tour guide. He only imparted the most basic information at each place and seemed keen to send us off on our own and be left alone. On the return drive, he spent the entire time on personal phone calls, often driving with only one hand!! With a more enthusiastic and friendly guide this tour would have been much more enjoyable
