Description

Begin with a comfortable pickup from your chosen location in Krakow. Be greeted by a professional, English-speaking driver who will ensure your journey is smooth, safe, and enjoyable.
As you travel through the scenic Polish countryside, admire the changing landscapes on your way to the breathtaking Tatra Mountains and the charming town of Zakopane – the winter capital of Poland.
Upon arrival, embark on a 1-hour traditional sleigh ride (kulig) through the snowy streets and picturesque surroundings of Zakopane. Wrapped in warm blankets, glide across sparkling snow while taking in the magical atmosphere of this unique Polish tradition.
After the sleigh ride, be welcomed to an outdoor highlander-style celebration. Enjoy live highlander music, energetic folk tunes performed by musicians in traditional outfits, and taste Oscypek cheese, a famous smoked delicacy made only in the Tatra region.
Sip on traditional Polish alcohol and taste authentic spirits that warm you up in true mountain style. Enjoy a bonfire feast with grilled sausages and other hearty snacks by the fire.
Once the celebration comes to an end, your driver will be waiting to take you back safely and comfortably to your hotel or apartment in Krakow. Relax on the return journey while reminiscing about a day filled with culture, flavors, and magical winter memories.
