When our friends who had already visited the area insisted on taking us here I tried to politely refuse. I assumed this was going to be a boring and tacky experience.
We arrived and I tried to decline the English Tour guide, but again my friends insisted - and lucky they did!
A truly amazing experience and gave me a deep appreciation for the history of the area that actually had me feeling quite emotional.
The miniatures are breath taking and helped us decide which particularly places we wanted to ensure we visited. Was very helpful to physically see in miniature scale so many buildings that we hadn't previously even known existed. We couldn't visit all of them, but the miniatures at least gave us an appreciation of them.
PLEASE believe me when the reviews suggest starting your visit to the area here!

Polecam każdemu!!! To niezwykła atrakcja oglądać okolicę Karkonoszy z lotu ptaka! CUDOWNE KRAJOBRAZY i piękny kolorowy balon! Myślę, że dla tych niezapomnianych widoków i tego podniebnego uczucia spokoju i ciszy warto było unieść się w powietrze z ekipą Balloon Expedition, która swoim poczuciem humoru umiliła każdy moment podczas tego niezwykłego dnia! Warto spełniać marzenia! Dziękuję za wspaniały lot! ;)

The Wild West in Karpacz starts with an hour’s horse drawn wagon ride. Then back to the town for a visit to the saloon. Drinks and sausages are part of tour price. You cook the sausages yourself over an open fire which was great for the children. A bank robbery will take place while you are there. Great fun for the children also. A relaxed day enjoyed by all. The town has all the attractions you would associate with the Wild West. Mulled wine and hot chocolate on a cold January day was perfect for the occasion.

The highest mountain in Czechia! Once you reach the top, you have a good feeling not only thank to the beautiful view, but also thank to you made it on your own. :-) You can also use the new cable cabin to get up.

This picturesque castle has been in ruins since it was struck by lightning in 1675. It possible to walk around the walls and to climb up the reconstructed tower for magnificent views of the surrounding area. There are well-signed parking lots from which it takes around 30-60 minutes to hike up to the castle.

Za tak wysoką cenę spodziewaliśmy się w środku czegoś fajnego, niestety spędziliśmy tam może 5 minut i były to najdroższe minuty za "atrakcję" w moim życiu. Efektów w środku za bardzo nie ma. Odradzam stanowczo !

Great tour, great guide, really worth the trip. Fascinating story behind this place, it does leave a lasting impression. It is SUPER COLD though, especially if you go there in summer during a heat wave, so make sure to take extra warm clothes with you to put on. I took extra clothing but was still freezing during the tour - I'll definitey go there again but better prepared to fully enjoy the place.

2 dorosłe osoby, senior i dziecko to łącznie ponad 70 zł za wstęp... Dziwne uczucie... Najpierw dojazd po bardzo wąskiej, błotnistej drodze, potem drogi wstęp, a dalej wejście i... i poszukiwanie Japonii... a Japonia to 3 kamienne małe repliki domków o kształtach znanych z filmów... Generalnie to jest zaadaptowany obiekt hydrotechniczny i to widać... tu jakaś betonowa śluza rodem z minionej epoki, tam jaka podrdzewiała brama... o fengshui to nie słyszeli... ale brawa za pomysł i próbę zrobienia czegoś innego...
