Popular Tours in Chochołów

This was a really enjoyable trip and it was extremely interesting with a thoughtful range of activities. Our guide Casia was delightful, informative and engaging. Her commentary was excellent and her knowledge of the area and its history was substantial. I appreciated her subtle sense of humour throughout the trip. Despite heavy traffic on the road to zakopane, the ride was comfortable and the scenery beautiful. The range of houses passed on the journey became even more interesting as the first major stop allowed us to look inside an old wooden house, with its original decor from times gone by, and we observed an artist doing some of his wood carving in one of the rooms. Zakopane itself was pretty and I was delighted that the substantial number of visitors to this mountain resort are Polish. The funicular and chairlift were splendid and although I don't like heights I felt perfectly safe. We were blessed with a beautiful September day and our fantastic guide kept the sun shining.

Relaxing coach ride, great scenery, informative stop at Chocholow en route. Our guide Kassia was very nice and we enjoyed our free time in Zakopane, first eating lunch and then watching an unexpected parade through the town. We then met up with our small group again and were guided to a church and cemetery before a trip on the funicular to soak up great views of the Tatra mountains. After a short walk along the mountain top (which was spoilt a little by vendors and crowds) we took the 6-person chair lift down the mountain and back to the coach. All in all, a great day and wonderful to see the different faces of Poland.

We had thought about getting the train from Krakow but decided on a guided tour . Very glad we did as we stopped at the Wooden Village and the cheese vendors on the way to Zacopane . Our guide was very informative during our walk through the town . Our trip included going up the mountain in the fenicular railway and coming back down on a chair lift . I’m not good with heights so he sorted it for us to go up and back on the fenicular instead of the chair lift . We stopped off at the oldest chapel in the town on the way back . Definitely worth the money

They leave on time. Our tour guide name was Catherine, called Kasha (not sure if I spelled it right). It was amazing that she speaks in fluent English. She was very nice, very friendly, and very energetic along the whole trip (I know, because at the end we were kind of tired, but she was still energetic and even on the way back to Krakow city center she still manage to point out to us of all the historical buildings).

We had a great day out to Zakopane and the Tatra mountains last week. It was everything we had hoped for (except for the rain we encountered). There were only 4 of us on the trip but our guide, Kasza, gave us a great commentary in her perfect English, explaining everything we were seeing and giving us important contextual information concerning the history and geography of Poland, which was fascinating.
