Overview

Escape Krakow for a full day in the spectacular Tatra Mountains and discover Zakopane, Poland’s mountain capital.

Your adventure begins with convenient pickup from your accommodation in Krakow. Sit back and enjoy the scenic journey towards the mountains while your driver and tour leader take care of the details.

Visit the traditional village of Chochołów, famous for its beautifully preserved wooden Highlander houses, and stop at a Highlander hut to taste oscypek, the famous smoked sheep’s cheese.

See Wielka Krokiew, Poland’s famous ski jumping hill, before continuing to Zakopane. Take the Gubałówka funicular and enjoy panoramic views of Zakopane and the Tatra Mountains, weather permitting.

Then enjoy free time in Zakopane. Explore Krupówki Street, browse local shops, try traditional food or simply enjoy the atmosphere.

At the end of the day, relax on the journey back to Krakow with drop-off at your accommodation.
