Loved everything about our experience!! The tour was awesome and everything went smoothly. The only complaint I have is that I received an email with one meeting point and after we got there I checked my email again and saw that we were supposed to be at a different meeting point. We literally ran to the 2nd point only to find out we could've been picked up at the 1st spot. Regardless, we loved it and would definitely book with you again!!

The place is outstanding, understand why Krakow was one of the richest cities in the 400s, salt equal to gold, and there is plenty of it here. Excellent guide, safe route

I meant above is the meeting point after the tour. When the tour finished, it would have been better if the guide could suggest what time we should come to the parking area and a brief explanation of the parking area to remind the visitors.

The driver and guide took care of us perfectly. We were well accompanied. However, it's important to understand that the time indicated is when the vehicle or mini-bus arrives at the meeting point. It is not the starting time of the tour.

Die Abholung und der Transfer haben wunderbar funktioniert, der Fahrer hat uns toll und verständlichinformiert. Es waren mE zu viele Gruppen auf einmal in der Mine und der gide war oft sehr schwer zu verstehen , es musste alles sehr schnell gehen, zum Staunen war wenig Zeit.

Make a short trip from Krakow and visit one of the most unique attractions of Poland, the Wieliczka Salt Mine. This mine has been active since the 14th century and is one of the world’s oldest salt mines. It boasts of breathtaking salt riches and sights that have been painstakingly sculpted over the centuries by the many miners who passed through this place. The microclimate of the Salt chambers and crystal-clear fresh air make breathing easier and aids lung problems so a visit to the Salt Mine is the perfect way to keep our body healthy.

Avoid the long queues with your skip-the-line pass and follow your guide down 135 meters below ground level to explore 22 chambers carved in salt. See the amazing salt chambers, salt statues, and salt lakes, as well as the stunning chapel of St. Kinga, that’s made entirely of rock salt! Enjoy the soothing and cool microclimate inside, and end your day in the many awe-inspiring and gorgeous chambers of the mine, making this a truly unforgettable trip.
