Here’s an overview of your activity

Zakopane, the skiing capital of Poland, is located in a valley surrounded by Tatran peaks, alpine meadows, and clear mountain streams. Would you like to visit it?

On this private day trip, you'll get a chance to see some fabulous mountain landscapes and also to get to know the rich culture of the Tatra Highlanders. Visit Zakopane and see its old wooden architecture built in a unique style. Jaszczurowka is one of the best examples of the local Zakopane style in arts and architecture, and you'll find out how it was built only from wood without using any nail.

During this tour, you will see the Gubałówka hill with a spectacular view of the Tatra mountains. You will get there by cable car. In the center, you will walk through the main Kropowki street with numerous regional products, the local market, and many restaurants. You will also taste Oscypek - traditional smoked sheep cheese. Oscypek is usually produced in Bacowka, a shepherds shelter and you will have the chance to see a couple of such mountain shelters.

Zakopane and the Tatra Mountains is a perfect place to visit during all seasons. So, join me on this private day trip, and I will show you the beauty of South Poland!

Any other request? Let me know, and I'll personalize your experience to make your wishes come true.
