Great day trip from Krakow - The train ride up to great views of the surrounding area. Plenty of bars and restaurants. The tour also included plenty of stops for photos.

A day well spent. - All the stops were a nice experience. The train ride up the mountain and the views were exceptional. The cheese tasting and the little shop were great too. Vodka was given but I don’t drink.

Excellent trip to Zakopane and Tatra Mountains - Excellent trip with Matthew as our friendly, knowledgeable tour guide in comfortable small coach. Tatra Mountain region is very different from Kraków - picturesque wooden 'Alpine' houses and great views from top of Funicular. Zakopane is very 'touristy' but pretty, and would be a great ski resort in winter. So glad we did this trip out of Kraków!

Pastoral landscapes amidst Zakopane's intense trade. - Tour very well organized and conducted by Lukas, who was very kind and attentive by the way. Zakopane is a village located in the valley of the Tatra mountains, frequented by mountaineers and skiers. The views are wonderful and there is intense local commerce, from luxury groceries to cell phone-cover shops, which can be a little too noisy. There are many stores of equipment for mountaineering. It is possible to climb up to Gubałówka on foot, but it is quite steep.

Long drive but worth it... - Long drive but worth it the scenery from the mountain top was spectacular. Our Driver Mike was most helpful and provide us with information throughout the tour.

Loved the Countryside - The most enjoyable parts of my Zakopane/Tatra tour were visiting small villages and traditional sites, the stave chirch. I enjoy History and culture while I visit. Our guide seemed to have a genuine interest in the old ways of the people. The countryside reminded me of my home area in the U.S.

Zakopane and Mountain trip - The day was enjoyable. Unfortunately, it rained all day, which impacted the wonderful views we would have had otherwise but that can't be helped. The cheese making was fun . Zakopane is worth exploring further in better weather. The village with the wooden houses is very cute to see. Our driver/guide, Maciek, was wonderful. Explaining lots of things and giving us plenty of information. I would recommend him for sure.
