ABOUT THE DAY

A day at the park begins and ends with transport

Energylandia is a day children remember for years. Parents tend to remember something else: circling for a parking space, carrying a backpack of dry clothes for ten hours, and wondering whether you will make the last bus while queuing for one final ride.

This package removes that entire layer. The driver drops you at the entrance and stays on site until the end of the day. The car becomes your base: the pushchair goes back there, dry clothes wait after the water zone, a toddler can nap in the air conditioning and phones can charge.

We reserve your entry tickets, so you never have to watch for a date selling out. Inside the park you walk at your own pace — we do not guide you and we do not set a route. What we take responsibility for is the journey there, the whole day on site and a return at any hour you choose.

HOW IT WORKS

From enquiry to return in four steps

01

Send your enquiry

Tell us the date, pick-up address, number of guests and the ages of the children. That is how we choose the vehicle and prepare the right child seats. We reply within two hours.

02

We confirm the package

We check the park opening hours for your date, reserve your entry tickets and set the pick-up time around them. You receive a fixed price and your driver details — with no surcharges on the day.

03

Hotel pick-up

The driver arrives at your address in Krakow, fits the child seats and helps with the pushchair. An hour on the A4 motorway, drop-off at the park entrance — no car park, no walking with luggage.

04

The full day and the return

The driver stays in the car park. During the day you can come back to the car for your things or simply for a break. When you finish, one call is enough — the car is at the entrance within minutes.

INCLUDED

What the package covers

Door-to-door Mercedes

Pick-up from your hotel, apartment or the airport and drop-off right at the Energylandia entrance. No parking, no walking with bags.

10 hours of driver standby

The package covers the return journey and the driver waiting on site throughout your day at the park. Each additional hour is charged at the vehicle rate.

Child seats and boosters

Matched to each child by age and height and fitted before we arrive. No surcharge, in every vehicle.

The car as your base

Dry clothes for after the water zone, the pushchair, backpacks and shopping all stay in the car. You carry only what you want to carry.

One driver, the whole day

The same driver from morning to evening, reachable by phone. We do not hand you over to another shift and we do not interrupt your day.

Return at any hour

You leave the park when you are ready — after the last ride, or three hours earlier if the children run out of energy.

Energylandia entry tickets

Reserved in your name as part of the per-person fee. No hunting for availability on a busy summer weekend.

THE DAY

What a day at Energylandia looks like — a sample plan

08:30 - 09:00

Pick-up at your Krakow hotel

The driver fits the child seats, helps with the pushchair and loads your things. Still water in glass bottles and WiFi on board.

09:45

Arrival in Zator

Around 55 km on the A4 motorway and local roads. Drop-off at the park entrance — no hunting for a space, no walk across the car park.

10:00

The park opens

You go in with the first wave of visitors, when queues for the headline rides are at their shortest. The driver parks and waits.

13:00 - 14:00

Break — optional return to the car

A moment for lunch, a nap for a younger child in the air-conditioned car, or simply dropping off souvenirs and shopping.

14:00 - 18:00

Water zone and the rest of the park

After the Water Park and Aqualantis you come back to the car for dry clothes. Wet things go in the boot, not in a backpack.

Until closing

The last rides

Stay as long as you like. Closing time depends on the season — we check it for your date when you book.

One call

Back to Krakow

You call the driver and the car is at the entrance within minutes. Home to your hotel — usually with two sleeping passengers in the back.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION

What to know before you go

Opening hours

The park usually opens at 10:00, and closing time depends heavily on the season — from early afternoon out of season to late evening at the height of summer. On some dates the park is closed. We check the Energylandia calendar for your date and set the pick-up time around it.

Entry tickets

We reserve tickets in your name — they are covered by the per-person fee added to the package. That way you do not have to watch allocations for a specific day, which sell out well in advance during the summer holidays and long weekends.

Park zones

Energylandia in Zator is divided into zones: Bajkolandia for the youngest, the Family Zone, the Extreme Zone with the Hyperion roller coaster, Dragon Zone with the hybrid Zadra, Sweet Valley, and the water section — Water Park and Aqualantis.

The water zone

You will need swimwear, towels and flip-flops for the water section. Leave a second set of clothes in the car — the driver is on site, so you can go back for them instead of carrying wet things for the rest of the day.

Pushchair, bags and shopping

Anything you would rather not carry stays in the boot. Take the pushchair or leave it, depending on how the day is going. After shopping in the park, a short walk to the car is enough.

Address and access

Energylandia, al. 3 Maja 2, 32-640 Zator. Around 55 km and an hour from central Krakow; from Krakow Balice airport it is closer, roughly 45 km. We also collect from Katowice, Wadowice, Oswiecim and Bielsko-Biala.

Ride restrictions

Some attractions have height or age limits, and a few require an accompanying adult. The park publishes current requirements — it is worth checking before you travel so you know what younger children will realistically be able to ride.

Weather

Some rides are suspended when the weather turns. Because the driver is waiting on site, you can head back early without consequences — you do not lose your transport and you do not wait for a return coach.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How far is Energylandia from Krakow?

Energylandia is in Zator at al. 3 Maja 2, about 55 km west of central Krakow. From Krakow Balice airport it is closer — around 45 km — because the airport already sits on the western side of the city.

How long is the drive from Krakow to Energylandia?

About an hour by private car, on the A4 motorway and then local roads. On summer weekends the final approach to the park can add fifteen minutes or so because of traffic at the entrances, which is why we leave with a margin.

How do you get to Energylandia without a car?

There are three options: a private transfer with a driver (about an hour, straight to the entrance), a tourist coach with a meeting point in central Krakow and one fixed return time, or a train to Oswiecim or Zator with a change onto local transport. With small children, a pushchair and things for the water zone, the first option is usually the only comfortable one.

Does the driver wait at the park all day?

Yes. That is the heart of this package — the driver stays in the Energylandia car park from the moment you are dropped off until you call for the return. They do not leave for another job and you are not handed over to a different shift.

Are child seats included in the price?

Yes, child seats and boosters are included with no surcharge, whichever vehicle you choose. We match them to each child by age and height, which is why we ask for those details when you book. The driver fits them before arriving at your hotel.

Can we leave our things in the car while we are in the park?

Yes, and it is one of the main benefits of this arrangement. Backpacks, a second set of clothes, the pushchair, shopping and anything else you would rather not carry for ten hours stay in the car. The vehicle is locked and the driver is with it.

What time should we leave Krakow for Energylandia?

Leaving between 08:30 and 09:00 usually works best, so you are at the gate for opening around 10:00, when queues for the headline rides are shortest. We set the exact time for your specific date, because the park calendar changes with the season.

How much does a transfer to Energylandia with a driver for the whole day cost?

The larger the group, the lower the transport cost per person.

Do you sell Energylandia tickets?

Yes. You do not need to check availability or watch allocations that sell out early in peak season.

Do you collect from Krakow Balice airport?

Yes. It is around 45 km and roughly 45 minutes from KRK airport to Zator. We monitor your flight number and the driver waits in arrivals with a name board. It is a convenient option for families who want to start their stay with a day at the park.

Can we travel to Energylandia from Katowice or Pyrzowice airport?

Yes, we cover the Silesian side as well. It is about 55 km from central Katowice to Zator and about 85 km from Katowice Pyrzowice airport. The principle of the package stays the same: the driver waits at the park for the whole day.

What if we want to return earlier than planned?

You leave whenever you like — one call to the driver is enough. With small children this happens often, which is exactly why this package works better than a coach with a single return time. A shorter day does not mean a surcharge.

Can we combine Energylandia with somewhere else nearby?

Yes. The driver is at your disposal, so on the way there or back you can stop in Wadowice (about 15 km), Oswiecim (about 20 km) or at the neighbouring parks in Zator. Just mention it when booking so we can size the package correctly.

How much time do you need at Energylandia?

Families typically spend between six and ten hours in the park. With children of different ages and the water zone included, a full day is a realistic minimum — which is why the package is built around 10 hours of driver standby.

Will a pushchair fit in the car?

Yes. The Mercedes V-Class has a boot that takes a pushchair along with the whole family hand luggage. If you are travelling with two pushchairs or more equipment, mention it when booking and we will arrange the right configuration.

Can we change after the water zone?

There are changing facilities in the park, and you can keep dry clothes in our car and come back for them at any point. That way wet things end up in the boot rather than in a backpack you carry for the rest of the day.

Which vehicle will we travel in?

You can choose a Mercedes V-Class (up to 7 guests, the most comfortable for families with a pushchair), a Mercedes E-Class (up to 3 guests, business class) or a Mercedes S-Class (up to 3 guests, our flagship saloon). All are air-conditioned, with WiFi, water and snacks on board.

Is the price fixed?

Yes. We confirm the price when you book and it does not change on the day. A surcharge only applies if you decide to extend the day beyond 10 hours, in which case the vehicle hourly rate is stated openly in advance.

When is the best time to visit Energylandia?

Weekdays outside the school holidays and long weekends are the quietest. July and August can be very busy, but the park runs its longest hours and the whole water zone is open. The right date therefore depends on what matters more to you: shorter queues or the full offer.

Can we reach Energylandia from Zakopane, Wroclaw or Warsaw?

Yes, we cover longer routes too, although the day becomes correspondingly longer: about 130 km from Zakopane, about 240 km from Wroclaw and about 320 km from Warsaw. Over those distances we usually suggest a longer standby package or a night near Zator.
