Awesome guide/driver - The trip, itinerary and scenery were great but our guide/driver Matthew took it up a level and made it even more memorable. Throughout the journey he would share his knowledge on the locations as well as Polish history, customs, culture and mythology. Very engaging and happy to answer all our questions. He was also very flexible with the itinerary and never rushed us, offering loads of tips and suggestions when we were off on our own exploring. Thanks Matthew for an amazing time.

Had a great day, thank you to our tour guide Mike! - Great day out, would highly recommend this trip if visiting Krakow. Mike was our tour guide, really friendly person with lots of knowledge about the areas as well as places along the way giving a bit extra information. All of the stops were really interesting, cheese and wine tasting also very nice! Lots of recommendations on ways to spend time once in Zakopane and places to go for food. I'd say 3 hours in Zakopane was plenty, lots of shops to look around and lovely little market. Would recommend the cable car also, we spent a little over an hour up here which was definitely worth the price paid. If you do go up to Gubalowka on the cable car, I'd recommend to take cash as we found a lot of the stalls don't take card. Overall, a really enjoyable day out! If you're in two minds whether to book it or not, just do it. You won't be disappointed.

Superb - Although we had some very bad weather on our Wednesday trip our guide Mathew more than made up for that and his a credit to your company. Keep hold of him as he is a winner. Polite knowledge able and with a good sense of humour too. Great day I would recommend to friends and probably do the trip again without the rain. Thank you a pleased customer. Kevin

Great day! - Lovely day trip out. Everything in itinerary happens as promised. Our tour guide Mateusz was amazing, so knowledgeable and was able to answer any questions we had. The whole day was great and the journey from krakow to Zakopane didn’t feel that long as we had 2-3 stops along the way! Fully recommend this tour was well informative and great.

Great day out - Such a fun day out and consistent with everything the ad promised. All the info before the trip was helpful and it was easy to book. The destinations we visited were lovely and Matthew our guide was great at explaining everything and answering all our questions. Cheese and quince vodka were fantastic and the restaurant Matthew recommended was a great meal. Would recommend!

Incredible - Incredible experience. Our guide was Caroline and she was so so lovely and made our experience so much more straight forward than if we done it alone. This tour is 110% worth it and I would do it again in a heartbeat. My favourite day of the holiday without any hesitation! Journey from Krakow is around 2 hours however en route up to Zakopane you have a toilet break and have 2 stops (cheese tasting and Wodka) before reaching Zakopane so it flies by!

Honest review. Great for a short trip - The organisers reached out the day before. We were told exactly what will take place and what time the driver would be here. Dawid was our guide and he was brilliant. Informative but also let us have a walk around take pictures and! Provided us with a car seat for the little one. It was great.
