What to expect
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Dunajec Gorge, Poland
You will travel by comfortable car with your tour driver approximately 2-3 hours, each way.
Upon arrival at your destination, you will join other participants of the River Rafting Experience.
One raft can accommodate a group of up to 11 people, lead by two raftsmen – a foreman at the front and an assistant at the back of the raft. During the 2-3 hours of the raft trip, you will have an opportunity to admire 14th-century Červený Kláštor on the Slovak side. Rafters are also impressed by rugged limestone rocks reaching even 500 m in height above the water surface. The highlight of the trip, however, is a view on the most famous summits of the Pieniny Mountains, namely Sokolica and Trzy Korony.
Your raft trip down the Dunajec river ends in the town of Szczawnica – one of the oldest Polish health resorts.
You will have about 1 hour of free time to have a lunch and then return to Krakow.
Duration: 5 hours

Andrew was a great guide. His knowledge of the countryside and its' wildlife was incredible. We had a great trip. The rafting trip actually takes you into Slavakia which was a plus for me. As Andrew explained since 1997 the river has changed making it a two country trip.

The weather didn't help but the 2 crew men on the raft made no attempt to speak to speak us or welcome us on board and we felt like second class citizens our driver complained about the distance he had to drive and missed out the castle completely

Excellent tour guide, small group tour, castle tour is quite short but the rafting trip lasts 2 hours, more than making up for it! The scenery is stunning!

The castle was interesting, though not much different from others we had seen near Krakow. But the region is really pretty, with mountains, lakes, rivers and tiny villages. The rafting down the Dunjec River Gorge was particularly enjoyable. The views are breathtaking and, since the weather was cool and pleasant, we found it to be very relaxing as well. The boats men did not speak English, so you miss out a bit. But the spectacular views make up for everything. It was a fairly smooth ride, with Slovakia on one side and Poland on the other. You also cross the border for a short while. Overall, a very worthwhile fun trip.
