This is the perfect opportunity to learn about the Highlander culture of Zakopane and the surrounding Podhale region. We will take you to one of the oldest houses in Zakopane, once owned by one of the most famous highlanders. From there we will continue to a local cheese hut (Bacowka) where we will explain more about highlander culture and also sample different forms of the renowned smoked sheep's cheese.
The horse carriage ride takes place in the beautiful Koscieliska Valley, one of the most beautiful valleys in Tatra Mountains and great for outdoor activities. We offer a horse carriage ride all year round (in the winter, you will be in a sleigh) into the valley. The stop is at Hala Pisana glade where you have a moment for a rest and pictures.
On this tour we would like to introduce you to a completely different Zakopane that you may not have heard of. Not many people know that below the Tatras lived many Jewish families who worked here and had a big part in creating the town that we know today. There was a vibrant Jewish community with a synagogue, shops, workshops and even a cemetery here. Nowadays you can however barely find any signs of their past here but our guide will help you discover this lost world and rich cultural Jewish past.
We are very excited to announce our All Saints' Day tour in Zakopane this year. We will combine our famous Highlander and Cheese-tasting tour with a special visit to the famous Pęksowy Brzyzek Cemetery. This is by far the best way to truely get to know the local life in Zakopane.
