He gave us a lot of recommendations for restaurants, bars and activities for Zakopane and also for Krakow! The trip was well organised, from the beginning till the end, the bus was amazing (we had a little surprise as well) and all the activities were included in the price! The cheese and vodka tasting is really good, Zakopane is an amazing place to see and ski and the Thermal Baths are a nice place to spend your weekend. Totally recommend! ☺️”

“We walked to a meeting point as the transport did not pick up from our hotel. We were expecting a coach or minibus (previous day had been to Auschwitz on minibus) but was picked up by a car/van for 6 people. The tour guide checked us in but as the other passengers had already been picked up at their hotels (i assume) there was only a seat in the back of which my wife had to climb into and one in the the next row where I sat (we couldn’t sit together on a 2 hour road trip) which was disappointing. We both had to sit with strangers but fortunately…”

“We've done food tours in Lisbon, Barcelona, Iceland, Amsterdam and now Krakow. Piotr was our host and met us on time at the agreed location introduced himself and we were away to the first location. I don't want to spoil the tour with the exact things eaten in terms of flavours etc. We had a whole host of meats, cheeses, bread, beer and vodka. We had Zapiekanka, perogi sweet and savoury. We were stuffed.. then we went to a restaurant for a 3 course meal!! So much food. By far the most we've had on a food tour. All delicious and tasty and Piotr did a great job of explaining…”
An interactive Polish Vodka Museum tour in Warsaw’s Praga, then a 4-vodka tasting and cocktail bar add-on option.
“Amazing experience! An interactive guided tour that allows you to learn the history of Polish vodka. Our guide, Wojtek, was excellent—very kind, knowledgeable, and explained everything clearly. The vodka tasting at the end of the tour was also a truly unique experience. In my opinion, this is one of the must-visit museums in Warsaw. It is ideal for families and children as well. The museum is housed in the building of the old factory, which is beautifully restored and very well maintained—an outstanding job has been done. The building also features a restaurant, a café, and a gift shop offering vodka and other products.”

“This tour was so awesome!! Our guide, Mike, was the best tour guide we have ever had on any tour we have done in the past. He was so informative and fun. The food places he took us to were so delicious. I thought it would be just small tastings, but there is enough food to make a meal. We were exposed to so many traditional polish food—pierogi, borscht, cabbage rolls, polish vodka, sausages and cheeses with horseradish and cranberries, honey cake, Polish beer, and traditional Polish doughnuts. He also gave a lot of Warsaw history along the way. Highly recommend!! 12 out of 10”
Every kind of day out, and the best of each.
