Energylandia Amusement Park – Tickets and Transfer from Kraków

If you love it extreme, unique and high speed – this tour will be perfect for you! Energylandia Amusement Park offers tons of competing attractions which, according to just how stout-hearted you think you are, will put you on a razor’s edge of wild excitement. But don’t worry, whoever prefers somewhat gentler diversions and a bit more of a relaxed ride, will also find something interesting here. Let’s add to this the information that literally everyone from the little kid to the senior citizen will find something tailored to their age and preference – we doubt you need all that much more encouragement to have some holiday fun in these places, are we right?

Energylandia is the biggest amusement park in Poland, located in the picturesque  Zator – just an hour’s drive from Krakow. It provides lots of unique attractions and is a very popular destination for people of all ages. There are 18 roller coasters and the largest outdoor water park in Poland. This huge complex covers an area of 43 hectares and consists of 106 amazing attractions. A single admission ticket is enough to enjoy all the attractions without limitation throughout the entire day. It is a perfect place for those who want to take a recreational tour outside the city with family or friends when visiting Krakow.

Energylandia Amusement Park includes six main zones:

Extreme Zone with a powerful 40-metre Space Booster arm, which accelerates up to 100 km/h and creates as much force as 5 Gs! Here you will find the fastest and biggest roller coasters, the huge pendulum Aztec Swing, Mega Coaster Hyperion – Europe’s highest and fastest in its category – and Water Coaster Speed, which holds the world’s record for roller coaster performance.

Aqualantis – is the newest zone opened in 2021 stylized on the ancient city of Atlantis. The main attraction of Aqualantis is the Double Launch Coaster Abyssus – reaches a speed of 100 km/h and the family roller coaster EKIPA Light Explorers – moving at 60 km/h. Here it is worth remembering that some attractions are already available for children over 100 cm tall.

Family Zone offers further attractions: a little less extreme, perhaps, but still not for everyone. Note! It’s worth pointing out that some of the attractions are reserved only for children over 140 cm tall. In this zone, we especially recommend the house of fear – a railway ride in total darkness.

Water Park – if you have had enough thrills and adrenaline and you need something to calm your heart rate and catch your breath, then it’s worth checking out some less-extreme places in Energylandia, e.g. Water Park. It’s a zone that is arranged like a tropical island with a wealth of attractions, corners and water-based games for different age groups and representing varying degrees of difficulty!

Dragon’s Stronghold – a place in the medieval Gothic style, where you can feel like in the middle of films such as Lord of the Rings or The Witcher.

Fairytale Land – zone for the youngest fans (from 2 to 6 years of age) of carousels, swings, roller coasters, high rides and many other attractions.

You will get to know the Main Market Square – the icon and symbol of Krakow. Your local tour guide will take you on a fascinating journey back into the Middle Ages. You will walk above the ground, between the Cloth Hall and St. Mary’s Church, and then cover the same path underground, while going 4-7 meters down to the Underground Museum. You will travel back in time and experience what the Main Square looked like 750 years ago.

You will learn about the history of the Market Square, which was the setting for the ceremonial meetings of the kings and foreign envoys, and a place where cloth, salt, barrels, shoes, as well as coal, lead and copper were traded. It was also a place where you could meet witches, thieves and alchemists, where the martens were put around the neck of the condemned man, and public flogging was held at the pillory. Over the centuries, the level of the Krakow market has risen up significantly, thus after descending into the underground, you will go back a few hundred years, to the times before the city was founded in 1257. With a little bit of imagination and help from your guide you will discover the atmosphere of the medieval Market Square while walking along the underground route and listening to the colorful stories. You will see the exposed foundations of former commercial buildings, medieval roads, hygienic utensils, used more than 600 years ago, or authentic 11th-century tombs, which will allow you to learn about the burials of vampires and witches.

Would you like to taste some real Polish folklore? Join us on a day tour to Zakopane! Explore the culture of Tatra’s Highlanders, a ride to the top of Mount Gubalowka, and taste some regional products.

We invite you to visit Zakopane, the winter capital of Poland located in the heart of picturesque Tatra Mountains. The city impresses visitors with its stunning nature, beautiful views and original folklore. In the 19th century Zakopane was a sleepy village inhabited by the Highlanders who, living for years in isolation, had created their own and unique culture. The special atmosphere and wild beauty of this place was discovered by Tytus Chalubinski, a doctor who started to send his patients there, appreciating the blessings of nature. In a short time, artists and the social elite pronounced Zakopane their favourite place in Poland where they rested, created their works of art and had love affairs…

Now the town is visited by countless tourists who, wanting to experience tradition, often complain about the “tacky face” of 21st-century Zakopane. Thus we decided to invite you to see “the winter capital of Poland” and its surroundings, which still expresses the charm of the past times and the beauty of unharmed nature.

Even more, they managed to create underground chambers so large that a balloon could be erected in them (their total capacity is 2,000 Olympic swimming pools! ) and which operated on as many as 9 underground levels.
