Excursión de un día a Zakopane desde Cracovia con degustación y paseo en funicular

Great experience. Really good admission fee for the day trip. Length of visit about 10.5 hours from 8.25am pick up to 7pm drop off. Really good atmosphere and mini bus ride of about 20 people. Stepan (apologise if spelt wrong) was a great guide and Lucas was a great driver. About 1.5 hour drive out of Krakow then stops to see the wooden house, goat cheese and vodka tasting and then into Zakopane. There is a funicular up to the mountain at Zakopane and then the town to explore it was definitely more crowded at the top of the mountain but a lovely view. The thermal spa was a highlight lots of areas to explore and the 16+ area was so relaxing and chill!

Our Zakopane day trip was absolutely fantastic, and our guide, Niko, made it even more special. He was incredibly friendly, informative, and funny, making everyone feel comfortable from the very start. Niko shared some brilliant recommendations for places to eat in Kraków, which we really appreciated. The breathtaking views in Zakopane were unforgettable and were definitely one of the highlights of our trip. Thank you, Niko, for making the day so enjoyable and memorable. Your enthusiasm, knowledge, and kindness really made this one of the best experiences of our holiday. We had an amazing day and would highly recommend this tour!

Great trip into the mountains with our guide Nico. Everything ran to time. Really enjoyed the cheese and vodka. Highly recommend.

The tour was really nice, the places are beautiful! Zakopane is so charming, the experience of swimming in the mountains as well. Our guide, Fabian was so friendly and helpful! Everything was perfect!

Simon, our guide, communicated effectively and was a perfect host. We had a fantastic day and we were dropped off right in front of our hotel. You can tell that Simon loves his job! Thank you!

We had heard so much about Zakopane and decided to take a tour rather than go by train. So glad we did! It was door to door service with excellent communication ahead of the pick-up point from our guide and driver Pawel. There were 7 of us in his spacious, immaculate vehicle and three different variations of the tour represented by all 7 passengers. Pawel was courteous, patient, accommodating throughout the day. He had excellent local knowledge and entertained us with facts and anecdotes as we headed towards Zakopane. We had a comfort stop, a stop off at a UNESCO village famed for its wooden houses and we got into one to observe a wood carver at work and another stop at a shepherds hut to sample smoked cheese and vodka! We were brought to the funicular railway in Zakopane and Pawel sorted out our tickets. We hadn’t opted to attend the thermal spa but those who did were given time to enjoy the sights at the magnificent viewpoint overlooking the Tatra mountains before Pawel drove them to the spa. Had we gone by train we would have missed out on so much. The price seemed expensive compared to public transport but we had a wonderful day full of rich experiences and made new friendships with our fellow passengers. We’ve always enjoyed escorted tours on previous holidays in Europe and this one was up there with the best days out at around £67 per head. It was approximately 12 hours from start to finish, in a very comfortable vehicle with an excellent guide. In context, Thousand Miles charged us the same as some golf buggy tours around the Old Town which lasted 1.5 hours! And the same price as a 30 minute trot in a horse drawn carriage around the square! Definitely recommend this trip with this company.

Despite the rain, it was a magnificent day. Olaf is a wonderful person and a true professional; magnificent work.

Absolutely lovely full day out. Mirek our tour guide was wonderful, so knowledgeable and explained in very clear english the history surrounding our trip, from visiting the wooden village to the vodka and cheese tasting to the wooden church and then onto Zakopane. A big special thank you to him.

AMAZING EXPERIENCE – WOULD 100% RECOMMEND 💗 Our tour guide Fabian and driver Michael were both absolutely lovely – nothing was too much trouble. They contacted us the night before the trip with our pick-up location, time, and a description of the vehicle, which was incredibly helpful. Our stop was extremely busy that morning, but knowing exactly who and what to expect meant we felt calm and organised. The vehicle was a smaller bus rather than a large coach, which made the experience feel much more personal. It was also ideal for anyone who suffers from travel sickness. After booking, the company contacted us via WhatsApp, where I shared our hotel details. They were brilliant at picking everyone up right outside their accommodation. They even rang people to make sure no one missed the tour and were happy to wait if needed – something you definitely wouldn’t get with a large coach. Little touches, like a great music playlist, really helped us relax and enjoy the journey. When the music changed to local Zakopane-style tracks, it added even more to the experience. The tour itself was unreal, and I would absolutely recommend it – Zakopane is stunning 😍 We were aware beforehand that Zakopane would be busy, especially after seeing posts online and knowing December is the busiest time of the year. However, despite this, everything was very well managed. The cable car queue moved surprisingly quickly, as did the shops and market stalls. Fabian was really helpful in explaining things along the way, including advising us that as tourists, if items don’t have a visible price, prices can change each time – so it’s best to only buy from stalls with clear pricing. Restaurants were understandably very busy, so if possible it’s worth booking a table in advance. That said, we were still able to find food after a short wait and a walk around. The bus journey included three well-timed stops, including a toilet break, exploring the town and its architecture, and a visit to a shepherd’s hut where we enjoyed vodka and cheese tasting. Fabian and Michael ensured everything ran smoothly and that everyone got to enjoy these experiences without any stress. Fabian shared helpful information about the culture and expectations, delivered in a way that was informative without being overwhelming. At each stop, he walked us off the bus, clearly explained directions, and set clear return times. Once we arrived at our destination, he also sent messages with recommendations for places to eat and useful tips, along with reminders of when to return to the bus. He did the same when we arrived back in Krakow. There were also multiple buskers around Zakopane, which added to the atmosphere and gave the place a real Hallmark movie vibe – such a beautiful way to end our trip. Overall, it was an incredible experience that we genuinely can’t stop talking about 😊

Brilliant day trip and well looked after by Paweł and the team. Loved the visit to Zakopane and the cheese & vodka were nice surprises!
