Escape to the Polish mountains for a day of adventure, relaxation, and Highlander traditions with round-trip AC coach transfers and an English-speaking tour lead.

Step into a traditional Bacówka to taste smoked sheep’s cheese (oscypek), sip Polish vodka, and learn about the centuries-old craft of Highlander cheesemaking.

Ride a glass-roofed cable car to the top of Gubałówka and take in sweeping views of the Tatra peaks before strolling through Zakopane’s charming streets.
