About the tour

Dunajec Gorge & Zakopane — what to know

One of Poland’s most beautiful trips: a raft trip through the Dunajec Gorge on a traditional wooden raft, steered by highlanders in regional dress. The river winds between the sheer walls of the Pieniny — calm, scenic, for everyone.

The raft trip lasts ~2–2.5 h (Sromowce–Szczawnica). Afterwards we drive to Zakopane: Krupówki, Tatra panoramas, a regional lunch. All private — the driver handles the logistics and takes you between the stops.

A full, scenic day (9–10 h), best from May to October (seasonal rafting). Bring a layer for the water and comfortable shoes. Plan: ~8:00 pickup, raft trip, Zakopane, return.
