Description
Experience the thrill of snowmobiling while admiring the stunning, snow-covered Tatra Mountains and valleys. Feel like you're in a movie as you zip along trails on the latest snowmobiles (rental not included). Enjoy a bonfire feast with traditional Polish delicacies.
The adventure starts with a hotel pickup, followed by a visit to a traditional shepherd's hut (bacówka) to taste oscypek cheese with cranberry and learn its history. A guide will accompany you, sharing fascinating stories throughout the day.
Next is the main attraction—snowmobiling, led by an experienced guide along a route suited to your skills. Midway, you'll gather around a traditional mountain bonfire for a warm meal.
**Note:** SNOWMOBILE RENTAL IS NOT INCLUDED. A fee of 400 PLN per two-person snowmobile applies. If there's no snow, the tour will use quads.
After the excitement, relax as you're driven back to your hotel.
See you on board!

Amazing Trip with Paweł !!
This trip was amazing! Paweł, our guide, was attentive, on time, and just an all around nice guy to spend the day with!! The quad riding was incredible - Kasper our quad master was great! After that adrenaline rush (through the forest and river), Paweł took us to a barbeque at a Shepard's hut where we tried the oszepek cheese and kielbasa cooked on an open fire. He then took us to the Thermal Pools and explained all the details - then left us to soak in the most wonderful pools. This was such an amazing trip and memory for us!!!! Highly recommend!!

Dear Guest,

Amazing Experience!
Kamil was the best!! It was such a beautiful day, and he was so flexible with us. We had such a great time and did the quad bikes which was beautiful. Highly recommend! Just note that you have to pay 400pln per quad bike (2 people can fit on 1 quad bike) but very worth it. The food was also very good.

Highly recommend this day trip if visiting Poland!
We ended up on a tour just the 3 of us as the other people dropped out which meant more room for us in the lovely air conditioned Mercedes MPV. Our driver/guide was Mikel and he was fantastic. So pleasant and friendly to talk to and very informative. Best guide we’ve had on the trip so far by a mile. The trip itself should not be missed. We paid the 400pln for the quad bike experience and I really recommend doing that.
Operator response
Hello,
Thank you for your wonderful and detailed feedback. We’re very happy to hear that you had such a great experience. It’s great to know that Mikel made the day so enjoyable and informative—we will gladly pass your kind words on to him.

Great tour
This was a lovely trip together.
Paweł was a very informative and lovely tour guide. Though there were only two of us on the tour it was still fun and cheap. Including the quads we had roughly three hours. It was a little chilly but the atmosphere was somewhat nice. Evening I'm sure would be better with the fire and a bigger group but it was nice learning and chatting with Paweł. It would be best for bigger crowds for more of an atmosphere and intermingling with others
I would highly recommend and would love to go again
Operator response
Hello,
Thank you for your thoughtful review. We’re glad to hear you still had a great time, even in a smaller group setting. We’ll gladly share your kind words with Paweł—he’ll appreciate them. It’s great to know you enjoyed the quads, atmosphere, and conversations throughout the trip. We’d love to welcome you again.
Kind regards

Quad bike with Bonfire
The experience was nice. Paweł was a tour guide, he picked us up right from our hotel which was very convenient. The whole trip was smooth and well planned. Quad bikes were a lot of fun and the barbecue was tasty.
