Very Satisifed - We had Piotr who was very helpful and gave us some history on Krakow and the rest of southern Poland. He also took us to a cheese store in the countryside on our way back from Zakopane which was delicious. We were able to shop for some gifts for our family. Would highly recommend to anyone.

Fun Trip - although unfortunatley due to the weather a rather soggy experience - We were collected promptly at 08:00 by Piotr who spoke excellent English and explained the day ahead. We drove to Zakopane stopping enroute to take photos at the famous village of wooden houses and to sample some Highland cheese. Our first stop in Zakopane was at the oldest wooden church 'Jaszczurówce' followed by a brief stop at the base of the ski jumps. We were then dropped off at the cable car and had two hours at leisure to explore the town. The cable car was fun and the views at the top were beautiful. However being August it was very busy and we felt one hour and half would have been sufficient. Piotr then drove us to Dunajec where we boarded the wooden raft. The sun had been shining all day and the minute we stepped on to the raft the heavens opened. He kindly ran to get us some rain ponchos and we sailed off in torrential rain absolutely soaked and spent the remaining two hours sitting in our wet clothes. It wasn't partiuclarly comfortable but it wasn't cold and we couldn't help but laugh at our misfortune and our very animated punter who didn't speak English but kept us amused with anecdotes translated by a fellow rafter. When the rain eventually stopped we did see some stunning scenery. We were a very bedgraggled bunch and were glad to see Piotr waiting for us at the other end of the river. He showed us where we could have some tea and then drove us safely back to our hotel. It was a long day but his service was excellent and we thoroughly enjoyed our day out of Krakow.

Best day ever!!! - We booked a private driving tour that included river rafting on the Dunajec, the Treetop Walk in Slovakia, and a visit to Zakopane. We contacted other tour companies for this itinerary; only Legendary Krakow said it was possible in a very long day (11-12 hours). Maciej arrived at our hotel on time and with a very clean car. He was extremely friendly and helpful throughout our whole day (he also played great music in the car!). Maciej drove us safely to each destination and helped with all tickets in each location. He even made an extra stop to a beautiful church outside Zakopane that would have been a shame to miss. All three stops were amazingly stunning. This was one of our favourite days during a two-week visit to Poland.

Unbelievable. Must do when in Krakow - What a great day out. This is a trip everyone who visits Krakow area must do. The scenery is amazing, the water is calm but still exciting enough sailing over rocks. Safe for kids and the raft guides are super entertaining. But they only speak Polish. So if you want to understand all the awesome jokes then bring a Polish speaking translator, you will pee yourself laughing. The booking company was great and the driver Milosc really cared about us all and made sure we had the best possible experience. He was very knowledgeable and tried to make the day unforgettable. The vehicle was super luxurious and the long drives were very relaxing and comfortable. If you are in the krakow area, then you must do this tour.
