From Kraków: Full-Day Trip to Zakopane with Chochołów Thermal Spa, Cable Car & Transfers

We had a wonderful day trip. Let by our guide Michal who was excellent throughout. The spa was huge, with so many pools to choose from, both fun and relaxing. The cheese was very tasty, and the vodka was so nice we bought some to take home as well. The town of Zakopane was lovely to walk around, and we ate at Karczma Zapiecek thanks to recommendations from Michal. Michal really made it a memorable trip, he was really fun and insightful throughout, giving us recommendations, making sure we knew exactly what we needed to do at every location, and made sure we didn't lose track of time and making sure everyone made it back safely.

Booked the full day trip to Zakopane and Thermal Baths and had Mirek as our guide. He was absolutely amazing and great fun. Ran on schedule with updates the day before on pickup times etc. Had time to ourselves when we arrived in Zakopane after a few stops on the way for vodka and cheese tasting. If you're thinking about booking I definitely recommend! Highlight of the trip. Thank you Mirek and driver Matthew !

Fantastic fun filled day. We were kept well informed both before and during the trip of important information by Niko, our guide for the day. A must for anyone visiting Poland.

When I woke up the morning if this trip I actually wanted to cancel because I was so tired from a busy first 2 days in Krakow. It was an early start and a very long day so I was not looking forward to going but I am so thankful that I sucked it up and went. We had an absolute blast. Learning about the traditions of the highlanders, tasting traditional cheese was so interesting. Zakopane is beautiful, the market stalls are reasonably priced in my eyes and the food was lovely so much to do and see. I was worried about the cable car but it isn't scary at all. It is large, modern and feels incredibly safe. The thermal baths, Amazing!! Could've stayed here all day with the help of the music and the swim up bar. Pick up location was a 12 minute walk our apartment so not far at all. It is a long bus journey but it doesn't feel like it, comfort stop, traditional house stop, cheese, vodka stop, Magda's facts and music really breaks up the journey before Zakopane and it isn't much distance to thermal baths from there. The bus itself was clean and comfortable. Has air conditioning, charging ports and the seats are comfortable enough. Big thanks to Andrew for driving us safely and Magda our guide who is knowledgeable, engaging and very funny. I like the group chat where we could keep in touch if we needed help or requests songs for the jorney back. I especially enjoyed the extra recommendations from Magda on good places to eat and visit in Zakopane and again when we arrived back to Krakow. All in all a fabulous trip, well organised that I highly recommend.

I can’t recommend the Kraków–Zakopane tour highly enough—it was genuinely one of the highlights of our trip. From the very beginning, everything ran smoothly. We received a message the evening before from our guide, Mirek, who was absolutely fantastic. He was warm, engaging and ensured everyone was getting what they wanted from the various stops throughout the day. Mirek was knowledgeable, well organised, and explained everything clearly throughout the day. Information was shared through WhatsApps with great recommendations for shops and restaurants. More importantly everything ran to schedule with plenty of time to relax at each stop. Overall, it was a fantasticly planned and thoroughly enjoyable experience from start to finish. If you’re considering booking this tour—go for it, you won’t regret it!
