Kraków to Zakopane Transfer — Minibus for 6 Passengers

Zakopane is Poland's winter capital and the gateway to the Tatra Mountains — Krupówki street, Gubałówka, Kasprowy Wierch, thermal pools and hundreds of kilometres of trails. It is only about 105 km from Kraków, but on the busy road south every kilometre can drag. A private transfer from Kraków to Zakopane is the calmer way to get there: a minibus for 6 passengers — a comfortable Volkswagen Multivan with captain's chairs and air conditioning — picks you up from your hotel, the station or any address in Kraków and takes you straight to your accommodation in Zakopane.

Minibus for 6 passengers — comfort all the way

We drive a Volkswagen Multivan — a minibus in which six people travel truly comfortably. Wide captain's chairs give you plenty of room to relax on the way, and air conditioning keeps the temperature pleasant in summer heat and in winter alike. Travelling with unusual luggage — skis, a snowboard, a pushchair? Let us know when you book and we will be ready.

How long is the drive from Kraków to Zakopane?

The route is about 105 km along the Zakopianka road (DK7) and usually takes around 2 hours. On weekends, during winter holidays and in summer, traffic leaving Kraków and approaching Zakopane can be heavy, so the journey may take longer. Your driver knows the road, and you don't have to watch a timetable or change vehicles.

Price of the Kraków – Zakopane transfer

The price shown in the table above is fixed and given in advance — no surprises on the meter. It covers the whole minibus, not a single seat, so the more people travel together (up to six), the lower the cost per person.

A private transfer instead of a shared bus or a train

Unlike shared buses, you travel privately: no waiting for the bus to fill up, no stops to collect other passengers and no carrying luggage from a bus stop. We pick you up at the address you give when booking and take you to your address in Zakopane — a hotel, guesthouse, apartment or the lower cable-car station. Flying into Kraków?

• anyone who doesn't want to drive the mountain road themselves — you can rest on the way.
