How to get to Zakopane from Krakow Balice airport?

The cheapest way is to take a fast train from the Balice airport directly to the railway station in the city centre: a rail bus reaches Kraków within 15 minutes. It starts off from a stop situated some 200 metres from the passenger terminal. Passengers may take a shuttle bus at the terminal or they may also choose to go on foot to the rail bus stop, as it is at a walking distance (only 330 steps). The fare is 4 PLN (1 Euro).
Next to the railway station you will find a bus station with frequently bus connection with Zakopane. We recommend the buses belong to the Szwagropol company. The fare is 20 PLN (5 Euro). It takes two hours to get by bus to Zakopane. We do not recommend to go to Zakopane by train - it takes even 4 hours and costs at least 25 PLN.
The easiest way is to book a private transfer from the Krakow Balice airport directly to your hotel in Zakopane - see the price list above.

Our clients comments:

  • Hello, I used your services for transport in February and was very impressed with the service. I am looking to come back to Zakopane next February and will use you again. Many thanks, Robert
  • Hello, Just a quick note to say thank you for the excellent transport service you arranged for us. I will recommend you to all of my freinds. Best Regards Walter
  • Hello, I must thank you for the excellent service we received from you and from the driver who picked us up at Krakow Balice airport. It is good to know we can rely on you for good service. Best Regards Walter
  • We have booked private transport fron the airport in Krakow to the Hotel in Zakopane (return) and it was all very professionally arranged. There were 4 of us - all with big cases and we had 7 seater with personal panel for air con in the back. The gentelman who picked us up was already waiting for us with our name on display, helpped us with cases and even allowed for a cigarette brake on the way. He kept us updated all the time when there were any troubles on the road and when there was possibility of alternative routes that would take us around any traffic we were kept informed (probably so we don't think that they try to kidnap us:)). On our way back different gentelman arrived in the same car allowing plenty of time to pack our cases. We were dropped off to the airport with plenty of time before our flight which allowed us to check in and have something to eat before setting off home. When it came to paying we didnt have to pay any money upfront while booking. We paid the driver when he dropped us of to the hotel for that part of the journey + little deposit for the way back. Originally, we though the deposit was to secure the journey back but as we found out no other cab firm could match the price anyway.
    I would definitely recommend the Altius Travel agency and I would not hesitate to book with them again. They are very professional and friendly company and everything can be arranged via e-mail. They also offer other services and it is all displayed on their web page: www.discoverzakopane.com. I would definitely try them if i were going back to Zakopane.
    Brilliant service- Thank you Barbara for all your help! :)
