Prices per adult in euros, read on GetYourGuide’s booking calendars in November 2026 for the dates shown. Most were shown as reductions from a higher list price, and prices move by date: Best Krakow’s meeting-point day was €104.37 for 16 January 2027.

Map of the Kraków to Zakopane day-tour loop in southern Poland: Kraków (plac Matejki) to Chochołów 97.6 km by road, Chochołów to the Gubałówka funicular in Zakopane 19.4 km, Zakopane to Chochołowskie Termy 17.2 km, and back to Kraków 100.5 km
What the full day covers by road: Kraków to Chochołów 97.6 km, to the Gubałówka funicular in Zakopane 19.4 km, to Chochołowskie Termy 17.2 km, and back to Kraków 100.5 km.

So the honest price of the day most people mean is about €85 to €97 a person. The ~€22 figure in the listings’ headlines is real, but it buys either the ride and the guide without the two tickets, or a day that starts in Zakopane.

On a transfer-only option, or on your own, you buy the two tickets yourself. The operators’ own prices for November 2026:

TicketPrice
Gubałówka funicular, return, ticket office42 złoty (34 reduced)
Gubałówka funicular, return, online37 złoty (29 reduced)
Chochołowskie Termy, 3 hours, Monday to Thursday95 złoty
Chochołowskie Termy, 3 hours, Friday to Sunday, and 11 and 12 November115 złoty
Chochołowskie Termy, saunas supplement40 złoty
Towel hire at the baths10 złoty

Sources: PKL, low season 1 October to 18 December 2026; Chochołowskie Termy, low season 1 September to 24 December 2026; adult prices. Reduced funicular fares are for ages 5 to 26 and over 65.

At the European Central Bank’s rate of 2 November 2026 (4.4185 złoty to the euro), the funicular and a weekday pool ticket come to about €30 bought online, €31 at the office, and €34 to €36 at a weekend. Take that from the full-day price and the transport, guide and tasting cost about €55 to €65 a person, against a transfer-only option at €21.75. The transfer-only route works if you are happy to queue for both tickets and to watch the clock at the baths yourself; the full option saves the queues.

Doing it without a tour

By bus, Szwagropol charges 37 złoty each way between Kraków and Zakopane, about two hours ten minutes; Koleje Małopolskie’s early Luxtorpeda train costs 26.50 złoty (November 2026). With the bus both ways, the funicular bought online and a weekday pool ticket, the day comes to about 206 złoty, about €47, before getting from Zakopane to Chochołów, 17.8 km by road, and without the Chochołów stop and tasting. Krakow to Zakopane by train or bus has the timetables.

Prices, ratings and review counts from the listings (GetYourGuide checked November 2026). The card prices are each listing’s lowest option; the option prices are in the table above. Operators price by date and season, so treat the figures as the shape of the market, not a quote.

Private days and winter extras

A private day costs four to five times a shared one: €364.81 a person for Thousand Miles’ private day with hotel pickup and €407.86 for ExploreCracow.com’s private VIP day, whose guide can speak English, Spanish, Polish or Portuguese (24 November 2026). In winter, the snowmobile days, such as Krakow: Zakopane Snowmobiles, Bonfire & Hot Springs Tour (Krakowdirect), add a one-hour ride and a bonfire to three hours at the baths; the machine itself, 400 złoty for up to two riders, is paid in cash on site, on top of the tour price.
