Very nice, large and well-organized spa. Everything very clean, warm and relaxing pools, bar right by the pool and ample space even for children. Friendly and helpful staff and lifeguards. Lots of showers and comfortable facilities. The only small note is that to get to some pools you have to go outside and in the cold, but nothing problematic. Really pleasant experience, recommend.

Amazing experience in Zakopane!
The tour was absolutely wonderful, with beautiful landscapes and great organization. The guide was truly excellent: knowledgeable, friendly, and very professional, which made the whole experience even better.
The only thing that did not go as expected was the snowmobile payment: in the app it was shown as included, but in reality it had to be paid separately (400 PLN).
Apart from this issue, the experience was really amazing and highly recommended.

This trip was run by Fun Tours Cracow. The pickup was at 08:50hrs and the lead guide was Katrina. Her and the rest of the team were brilliant. Very funny, knowledgeable with the facts about local area and organised. We unfortunately didn't get to do snowmobiling as the weather was unusually warm and sunny for December, however the quad biking was fantastic. The thermal spa's were great. We stuck to the -1 level which was adults only and had a swim up pool bar which was the perfect way to end the day. We would definitely book with Fun Tours Cracow again!
