NoneThe bus was on time, well air-conditioned and clean, which made the journey from Krakow to Zakopane very pleasant. The seats were comfortable and the two-and-a-half-hour journey went by quickly. The views of the Tatra Mountains were particularly impressive and added a nice variety to the journey. The driver was friendly and drove calmly and safely.

Journey longer than expectedIn December 2022, I took a Flixbus journey from Krakow to Zakopane. The wintry landscape along the route was breathtaking - snow-covered mountains and valleys made the journey almost a little excursion. However, the journey was longer than expected as there were delays en route. The coach itself was comfortable, but the toilet could have been cleaner. The route is still recommended for nature lovers and budget travellers.

Seats could be a little more comfortableRoads on the way sometimes winding and bumpyOverall, I enjoyed the bus journey from Krakow to Zakopane. The route offers impressive views of the mountains, which makes the journey very pleasant. The bus was on time and clean, and the driver seemed professional. However, the roads along the way are sometimes winding and bumpy, which more sensitive travellers should be aware of.
The seats could be a little more comfortable, especially on a journey of just under two hours. Nevertheless, it was a cheap and comfortable way to get to Zakopane. For anyone wanting to explore this beautiful region of Poland, the bus journey is a recommended option.

Sometimes a bit cramped in the busThe bus journey from Krakow to Zakopane in October was very pleasant overall. The journey was on time and the seats were comfortable, which was important for the approximately 2.5-hour journey.

The only downer was that it was quite cramped in some places, especially for taller people. But overall a relaxed journey!

The bus was comfortable, with comfy seats and free Wi-Fi, which made the journey relaxing. The tickets are good value, especially if you book early. The only minor downside was that the bus can be quite crowded at rush hour, which can affect comfort somewhat. Overall, however, a good and fast connection.
