Highlighted reviews from other travelers
This trip was amazing! Krzysztof was an amazing guide. It was the highlight of our holiday and ran so smoothly from beginning to end! Zakopane and the cable cars is a must on your trip and the thermal baths were great fun!
Mike was above and beyond! Very kind and knowledgeable throughout the trip — at the end during the hotel drop offs it was raining a lot and he was very attentive. I recommend this trip and with Mike for everyone!
