Superb excursion, would definitely do it again. - Anyone visiting Krakow should definitely go on this excursion. I went with my 12 year old grandson, we were picked up and dropped of at our hotel, we shared a minibus with 6 others . A fabulous day seeing another side of Poland. The scenery of the mountains was breathtaking, the cable car ride to the viewpoint is absolutely worth doing for the view alone, this is a great stop with bars, restaurants and souvenir shops. We went in July and it was very busy. The stop at the authentic smoked cheese maker was short but enough time to taste the cheese which was delicious . Zakopane is a lovely place well worth a walk round when you come off the mountain. The stop at the wooden houses was good but the time was short around 15mins could have been maybe another 5 mins longer . The highlight of the day especially for my 12 year old grandson was the heated pools, this place was fantastic, so many pools to choose from and lots of jacuzzi pools as well, even although it was busy there was plenty of space and sunloungers for everyone. You can hire towels or take your own. The kids area is superb for younger children and the water slides for older children were perfect. There’s a swim up pool bar and other restaurant and bar in the complex. A special mention for our tour guide Daniel who was knowledgeable , polite and always punctual. I will definitely take this tour again when I return to krakow, excellent value for money

A bit of something for everyone - brilliant - This trip was amazing but made even better with our tour guide Matthew, he was friendly reliable and had knowledge of each stop we made, he was more like one of the group which made it feel more personal. I would definitely recommend to anyone who is visiting Poland to do this trip and if you are lucky enough to have Matthew as your guide then you will not be disappointed 😊.

Excellent trip - Excellent experience and well work the money. The village is amazing, Zakopane is amazing and so much to do, great food too and really cheap, lots of shops and markets, activities at the top. The thermal springs weee also great, lovely and warm, calm pools, pools with music and swim up bar. The cheese was gorgeous and the vodka was lovely (very strong). Our tour guide Stanislaw was excellent, kept us all informed, each meeting point was easy to find and he was very accommodating. Well worth the money as it was such a great experience.

Stunning and worth a visit! - From the hotel pick up to Zakopane, Chocolowskie termy, thermal baths and the Polish vodka and cheese tasting, it was all very well arranged and timed to perfect. Zakopane is beautiful and the wooden houses are stunning. The thermal baths are so relaxing and hiring a towel was easy. Daniel, our driver for the day was professional and courteous. I would re visit and recommend Viator for tour bookings. Easy, simple and plenty of remind texts too.
