    Everything from knowing the vehicle and driver that was coming for us to the great laugh we had with Kuba. Only disappointment was the thermal baths but nothing to do with yourselves. We had been to thermal baths in Budapest that were so much better and hotter. The Tetra mountain was fantastic. If we return to Krakow we will definitely book with yourselves again
