15 Food & Drink Experiences in Poland: The Price and the Catch

Krakow: Zakopane, Thermal Springs, Cable Car, Local Tasting - The morning ride from Krakow to the Tatra foothills

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 5,419 reviews · 11 hours · from $16Our pick

Review of Krakow’s Zakopane day trip with Tatra views, oscypek tasting, Gubałówka funicular, and Chocholow thermal baths.

“We booked the Zakopane day trip from Krakow with some hesitation — but it exceeded every expectation. The village of Chochołów was absolutely postcard-perfect. The smoked cheese tasting in the shepherd’s hut was delicious and felt wonderfully authentic. Zakopane is a true gem, and the ride up to Gubałówka offered breathtaking views of the Tatra Mountains. Enjoying tasty local food with that mountain backdrop made the experience even more special. The thermal baths were the highlight — the perfect, relaxing finale the day. The small group and modern, comfortable van made everything feel smooth, personal, and very well organized. And a very special thank you to our driver, Daniel. He…”

Taste 13 to 14 Polish dishes, vodka, beer, and local treats while exploring Krakow’s Kazimierz with a small group guide.

“The food tour is a must do when you visit Krakow! You learn so much about the history as get to taste so many delicious eats. Even though it was freezing outside, I truly didn’t think about it much because it was such a wonderful time. Try to book with Conrad! He was such an amazing and personable guide. I was impressed with his breadth of knowledge, his patience in answering questions, and especially with his ability to remember the names of all 15 of us. He made sure to address us all personally and check in to see if we were enjoying ourselves. I would absolutely do the tour…”

Make Polish pierogi in a small Warsaw class, enjoy a family-style meal, and taste Polish liqueurs for a hands-on cultural experience.

“We signed up for the class as an early Mother's Day gift from my sister's children who are half-Polish and desperately miss their late Babcia's Cooking. Patrycya gave us a little background history on pierogi and then instructed us in making four varieties of Poland's favourite dish. The class was limited to a small number which enabled Patrycya to provide one on one instruction where necessary. After the pierogi was made, we were rewarded for our efforts by eating the fruits of our labour. Delicious! We can't wait to try our newly learned skills when we return to Australia. Highly recommended. Thank you, Patrycya.”

I can’t say enough about the experience from start to finish. The history was not overwhelming, yet interesting. Polish beer, shots of polish flavored Vodka, and the food was amazing. I absolutely recommend this tour.”
