Our 2-hour walking tour is an essential introduction to Zakopane, whether you’re a history enthusiast, a folklore lover, or simply looking to indulge in the beauty of the “winter capital” of Poland. We create each experience with you in our mind, taking into consideration your interests and preferences. Our trusted Local Guides know every nook and cranny of this charming town and the surrounding mountains, so they can share a lifetime’s worth of stories, historical facts, and local legends.

Imagine strolling through the historic Krupówki Street and stepping into the heart of the vibrant Goral culture, from artisan shops to cozy cafes, all while enjoying personalized insights from your Private Guide who is a master storyteller. Marvel at the intricate wood carvings of the Old Church and find out what makes the Peksowy Brzyzek National Cemetery unique.

Don’t just look at the history, feel it, as you step inside the Church of Our Lady of Czestochowa and carefully examine every detail of its wooden architecture. Zakopane boasts many examples of unique architecture of Tarta Gorals (Highlanders), such as the beautiful villa Jutrzenka. We’ve heard that many tourists miss out on Zakopane’s true charm, so we want to take you to Rownia Krupowa for an amazing photo opportunity with the carved inscription “Zakopane” and a breathtaking panorama of the city and Tatra Mountains!

We understand that 2 hours may not be enough to experience it all, so we also offer a longer 3-hour tour for those hungry for more. Don’t miss out on discovering more attractions of Zakopane, such as the unique Upside Down House, the impressive Church of Holy Cross and the 20th century Villa Oksza, which now houses the Art Gallery of local people, their customs and the city.
