All Krakow Tours & Excursions in 2026 - page 3

Our Kraków–Zakopane tour with Mirek was nothing short of incredible. He messaged us the night before with clear pick up details, and from the moment he collected us to the moment he dropped us off, he was exceptional. A true fountain of knowledge with brilliant humour, great stories, and the kind of warmth that instantly puts you at ease. We began at the UNESCO wooden village, where Mirek told us all about the storks — even pointing out two nesting right above us. Then came the cheese, vodka and wine tasting, arranged with absolute precision. We even got a fantastic photo of my wife and me dressed as Highlanders, which we’ll treasure. From there we headed into Zakopane, where snow had started to fall — turning the whole place into something magical. Mirek explained how unusual it was for the season, joking that ‘winter had returned’. He advise on the best the shops, local foods, and traditions before we took the funicular up the mountain for stunning views and a wander through the market stalls. We also tried a recommended selection of Polish soups, which were absolutely delicious. Finally, we arrived at the Chocholow Baths. With the cold air and falling snow, the outdoor pools were honestly one of the best experiences we’ve ever had. The mist rising from the water made everything feel dreamlike, and with so many pools to explore, we tried them all. I would recommend this trip to absolutely anyone — and if you can, ask for Mirek. He turned a great itinerary into an unforgettable day.
