Step by Step
Visiting Zakopane is a perfect opportunity to learn about
the wooden architecture of Podhale highlanders, and to see
the beautiful villas in Zakopane style, which was inspired by
the folklore of this region.
It is impossible to visit Zakopane and not go to Gubałówka (1123 metres above sea level) – the best known peak of the winter capital of Poland, as well as one of the best viewing points, from where you can see the Tatra Mountains, Zakopane and the entire Podhale region.
You will ride the funicular to the top of Mount Gubałówka and spend 1 hour here to admire commanding views of the Tatras and Zakopane.
You will visit the most popular street Krupówki, which is a peculiar market of the city and its central point. Krupówki street is crowded with tourists who visit shops and go to restaurants located along the street. On this street you can find many traditional highlander items to buy, such as clothes and souvenirs, but also to eat.
You will have some free time to spend over here.
Reviews
- MM. M.The mountains were beautiful and the cheese tasting fun and delicious! Michal was entertaining and helpful with suggestions of restaurants in Zakopane.
- PP. H.Pawel was nice and Professional. The combination of mountains, cheese tasting and thermal springs was good. We really enjoyed it. Only negative: the transport bus had small seating between rows- the bus was full and we were in the back row-any one over 5’3” will have very cramped legs.
- JJ. E.Great trip lots to do and see well organised by your operator value for money. Interesting to see old houses and customs and cheese sampling
- MM. C.Our tour guide Krystian was absolutely fantastic. He was so friendly and full of life it really made our trip. The trip in itself was incredible too. The views in zakopane were phenomenal and the thermal spa was lovely.
