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!

The experience was amazing. Our guide was a lot of fun. We took a ride on the quad bikes through the mountains and ended with a bonfire with food and drinks. We would love to repeat the experience.

Brilliant tour guide, absolutely loved every minute of it. So much fun, would suggest it to anyone visiting Krakow. From pickup to drop-off, there were fun laughs. The quad bikes were excellent. The hut and food were so good, lots of laughs, and the thermal baths were outstanding, with the tour guide with us all the way, making it so easy and relaxed. Magic was tremendous!

Morning departure from Zakopane

Most snowmobile tours begin in Zakopane at a designated meeting point or your hotel. Meet your driver, board a comfortable AC minivan, and enjoy the drive toward the Tatra Mountains.

Stop at Zakopane village

Stroll through Zakopane’s charming streets lined with cottages and souvenir stalls. Observe the village’s wooden architecture houses and try the famous smoked sheep’s milk cheese, oscypek. In winter, the snow-covered peaks make every corner a picture-perfect backdrop.

Snowmobile adventure in the Tatras

Gear up with helmets and gloves before your guided snowmobile ride through the majestic Tatra Mountains. Follow expert-led routes across snowy valleys and forest trails for the perfect mix of speed, adrenaline, and alpine beauty.

Highlander flavours and bonfire break

After your ride, stop to taste freshly grilled oscypek with cranberries. If you’re travelling in winter, warm up by the bonfire and sip mulled wine before continuing your adventure.

Relaxation at Chochołów Thermal Baths

Pick the thermal baths combo to end your day with a soothing soak in the mineral-rich waters of Chocholow thermal baths to recharge your muscles. Enjoy jacuzzis, saunas, and panoramic mountain views just a short ride away from your just-finished snowmobile adventure.

Settle back in your comfortable vehicle for the scenic return to your hotel. Expect to arrive in Zakopane by evening, relaxed and recharged after a day of adventure and alpine beauty.

Things to know before booking your snowmobile tours

  • Know your ticket options: Zakopane offers a wide range of snowmobile tours. These include a 4-hour snowmobile ride featuring visits to a traditional shepherd’s hut, cheese tasting, and a cozy bonfire meal. For travelers seeking a full-day adventure, there’s a snowmobile or quad ride combined with a 3-hour entry to Chochołów Thermal Baths. For those coming from Krakow, full day tours include snowmobile rides, thermal bath access, visits to traditional wooden villages, and tasting of local grilled cheese.
  • Tour duration: Most snowmobile and thermal bath tours last between 6 and 10 hours, starting around 8am–9am and ending by early evening. If your ticket includes Chochołów Thermal Baths, factor in at least 12 hours in total, including travel time.
  • Equipment & inclusions: Your tour includes snowmobile gear (helmet, gloves, and balaclava) and 2.5–3 hours of thermal bath access. You’ll also enjoy local touches such as highlander cheese tasting and optional bonfire meals.
  • Snowmobile vs quad ride: If you’re drawn to snowy thrills, go for the snowmobile tour, perfect for gliding through powdery white trails in the heart of winter. Prefer off-road excitement year-round? The quad tour is your match, built for rugged mountain paths, rocky slopes, and muddy terrain.
  • Snowmobile fee: While your ticket includes a snowmobile ride, the guided ride fee is not included and must be paid directly on-site before the activity begins. The fee is 400 PLN per two-person vehicle.
  • Driver requirements: For safety reasons, participants under 18 cannot drive and must ride with an adult.
  • Weather & conditions: The tour operates in most weather conditions. In case of insufficient snow, the snowmobile experience will be replaced with an equally thrilling quad bike ride.
  • Accessibility & restrictions: This experience is not wheelchair or stroller accessible. Pregnant guests and those with medical conditions should consult a doctor before booking. Children must be accompanied by an adult at all times.
  • Booking tip: Plan your visit and book tickets 2–4 weeks in advance during the peak winter season (December–March), as snowmobile tours and thermal bath slots tend to sell out quickly

Visitor tips

  • The Krakow to Zakopane route can get crowded on weekends, holidays, and during the winter ski season. Find the best ways to reach Zakopane, and leave Krakow before 7am or return after 7pm to avoid traffic.
  • Visit the Chochołów Thermal Baths after sunset for a quieter experience. The pools glow beautifully under soft evening lights, and the atmosphere feels calm and relaxing after a full day outdoors.
  • Bring local cash, as smaller cafés, market stalls, and cheese vendors often do not accept cards. Having some Polish złoty makes it easier to buy snacks or souvenirs on the go.
  • Explore beyond Krupówki Street to find traditional eateries and craft stalls where locals shop. Prices are often better, and you will experience a more authentic side of Zakopane.
  • Try local flavours like kwaśnica soup and grilled oscypek cheese with cranberry sauce for a true taste of highlander culture.

Most snowmobile tours last around 1 hour. However, the day trip from Krakow itself can take about 2 hours each way featuring stops at thermal baths like Chocholow if they are included in your ticket. Keep aside at least 6-8 hours to a full day depending on your ticket.
