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…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 904 reviews · from $51

Review of Krakow’s Zakopane day trip with Gubałówka cable car, Chochołów cheese tasting, mountain views, and thermal baths.

“Excellent trip from start to finish! Joanna the guide was very knowledgeable, informative, fun and friendly, as was Matthew the driver. Loved every aspect of the trip especially being on top on the mountain at Zakopane and in the hot springs! The only issue we had was that the minibus is very small/narrow inside and we were cramped on the back seat! It was fine but feel that they need a more spacious bus! It was still an amazing day and I’d highly recommend this trip to anyone! Tip - don’t sit on back seat if you can, we were last pick up so had no choice! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 Thank you…”
