Well worth a visit

We had a very enjoyable tour exploring Zakopane and Tatra Mountains. A lovely way to escape the city for a day. Communication from this company was very impressive. Our tour guide Michael picked us up on time, he was friendly, knowledgeable, entertaining and provided us with an amazing day out. We would highly recommend this tour.

Make sure you book the right number of guests as I thought I’d selected 4 guests and paid what I thought was the rate only to be asked on the day to pay an additional £55. Patrick our guide was great, plenty to do and see - great full day out.
