Beautiful Zacopane and the Tate’s mountains - From the moment we were picked up in a super comfortable roomy vehicle, our guide Mariusz was fantastic, he gave us so much information along the way to Zacopane and we stopped off several times, once to look at some beautiful wooden houses and was able to go inside one and heard about local tradition and looked at the magnificent buildings and quality of the wood. The houses were beautiful and very ornate, there was a lovely gift shop also. Next we went to a shepherds hut and tasted a few shots of Wodka and tasted some local cheeses and this was lovely. Again there was a lovely gift shop selling beautiful locally made slippers etc. After the shepherds hut we drove to the most beautiful little decorative church in a beautiful rural spot. The church was so beautiful and interesting, like you’d never see here in Uk. We then drove to Grublowska Zacopane where we was given our tickets to the funicular railway and were given several hours free time to explore the mountain and town. Our guide gave us lots of lunch recommendations which was great and we had plenty of time to explore. The funicular was perfect and well organised no queuing and got straight on to the top and the views were fantastic and breathtaking. I have to say though the restaurants up there were mainly pizza and burgers but there was plenty of drinks available both soft drinks or alcohol with lots of choice and the local beers were fabulous. When we had soaked up the Mountain View’s and enjoyed drinks, we went back on the funicular to go down to walk round the town. Lovely restaurants along the Main Street, ice cream, cakes etc. we ate at Stoliky restaurant on the bottom of the main road opposite the beautiful church and we had the best lamb pierogies 10 which we shared with potato cakes and a mushroom sauce which was so delicious and really reasonably priced and good service. The street had lots of shops but all the stalls from Groblowska along the street to Zacopane pretty much sold exactly the same merchandise. There was a lot of proper shops along the main road which were nice although we didn’t walk the entire street only a quarter of it. After our visit the guide took us back to hotel or surrounding areas. I could not fault this company and trip as it was wonderful and Mariusz is a credit to the company as he is very polite, friendly and super knowledgeable and I would recommend you book through this company.

Trip to Poland - I had an amazing experience with this tour company during my stay in Krakow! They organized everything perfectly – from a breathtaking trip to Zakopane with its stunning mountain views, to the deeply moving and educational visit to Auschwitz-Birkenau. The Wieliczka Salt Mine tour was fascinating, and the shooting range was an unforgettable adrenaline rush.
Everything was well-coordinated and punctual. The guides were knowledgeable, professional, and friendly – they really enhanced the whole experience. Transportation was comfortable, and I appreciated how easy they made everything. Highly recommended for anyone looking to explore the best of southern Poland without any hassle!
