“Tour was brilliant, tour guide Joanna was amazing, driver Matthew was lovely - not a lot of room on the bus, at 5’9 I could not fit my legs in comfortably. All of our group (even the smaller people) struggled to get comfortable- was a lovely bus but just not enough room in between seats to get comfortable. Would definitely recommend the tour”

“The tour was absolutely beautiful. We were picked up from our hotel on time, and our driver Lukasz was very kind and provided us with interesting information throughout the drive to Zakopane. What I personally found very important is that Lukasz is a calm and excellent driver. We all felt very comfortable and safe during the entire journey. During the tour in Zakopane, we admired the traditional wooden houses, tried the local cheese (Oscypek), and learned a bit about the region’s history. At the main stop, we had three hours to explore Zakopane on our own. The cable car ride was included in our tour, and we went up to…”
