Additional Information

Spend your evening and afternoon in the scenic Polish mountains.

Explore Zakopane, nestled within the Tatras. This location is widely celebrated for its unique culture that reflects the lifestyle of the highlanders in the Podhale area. It’s also regarded as Poland’s prime skiing destination. Krupowki, Zakopane’s most renowned street, teems with traditional markets that sell memorabilia and offer local delicacies like Oscypek, the smoked cheese.

In the settlement of Chocholow, marvel at the age-old wooden houses crafted by highlanders, and indulge in the massive thermal baths complex situated there. Immersing yourself in its warm waters may help unwind and de-stress. These naturally sourced waters, siphoned from roughly 3600 meters beneath the earth’s surface, are believed to provide various health benefits.

The order of attractions is flexible to the group’s preferences – you can start with Zakopane and then proceed to the thermal baths in the evening, or vice versa.

Fantastic experience - We had an absolutely fantastic experience. Michael our driver was so careful and caring towards any needs. As our drive was 2+ hours he offered to stop at several service stations with no issue and informed us of local history and how long was left of our journey. He was also very informative of telling us where to go at the thermal baths and where to get drinks/ food. We would highly recommend this service.

Amazing Tour, Thanks Michał! - This tour was amazing! The thermal baths were very relaxing and the bath outside had a DJ and was lots of fun... the views were beautiful as you could see the mountains and the forest. The drive there was also very nice as you saw a different side to the country and it is beautiful. I would like to say thankyou to our tour guide Michał who really made our experience amazing... he was teaching us about the culture and history of the country and all about the countryside we were driving through on the way to the bathhouse. He made sure everybody was happy and enjoying the journey and he was so kind and had great conversations with us! Very kind and helpful. I would definitely recommend this tour it is worth the money and Michał made the experience even better and more fun than we had expected it to be. Dziękuję 😁😁

AMAZING!!!! SO amazing - Our tour Michal was absolutely amazing. He was so charismatic and hilarious. My boyfriend and I rode in the front with Michal and we quickly became friends. The thermal baths were amazing, we went to the adults only section and had an amazing time. So many different things to do you will not be bored. Salt rooms, many saunas, many hot tubs, lots for kids to do and lots for adults to do. Would recommend to couples or family’s as well. Definitely take your trip with Michal and make it a 5 star day.

Zakopane and Thermal Baths Afternoon Experience - Highly Recommend ! - Our trip to Zakopane and the Thermal Baths was an amazing experience that myself and my wife were lucky enough to get a place on. We were on a City Break to Krakow, our first time in Poland and wanted to visit Zakopane to see more of the country outside of the city. Piotr was our driver and he was absolutely fantastic, he was safe, courteous and really friendly, with great knowledge of the area along the journey to Zakopane and up to the main town. We stopped on route to one of the Highlanders huts and had some lovely cooked cheese, it was so traditional and authentic and we never felt rushed. Piotr always kept us updated with timings and when to meet back at the minibus. Zakopane was truly breath-taking we took the cable car up to one of the high points and the view was stunning. The thermal bath experience was also great, we had a full 3 hours there so could relax and enjoy the pools, as well as come out and have a drink at the bar after before heading back to Krakow. Piotr was a brilliant guide, and if we're ever in Krakow again I will be sure to look him up and go on one of the other excursions that are on offer. Myself and my wife highly recommend

Great Zakopane & Thermal Baths tour with the driver Maciek!! - A friend and I had a great day trip from Krakow to Zakopane and the Thermal Baths. The experience was a great balance of being able to walk around at the top of the mountain and Zakopane town which is beautiful, paired with relaxation at the thermal pools. There is also a lot of facilities for fun at the pools with drinks, slides etc also available but we chose more relaxing options! Our driver Maciek was very informative, organised and friendly. It was great to hear more about the local culture and the life styles of people in the area. I was also really impressed with his smooth and relaxing driving meaning the 2 hour journey each way, through lovely scenery, was also thoroughly enjoyable. Thanks Maciek and Legendary Krakow for a great tour!
