Superb - The whole journey from start to finish through the mine was brilliant. We did not expect the refreshments and toilet stop part way through which made for a more comfortable trip. Our guide was excellent, his English was impeccable and his jokes and humour added to the whole experience. The only downside was the long walk back through tunnels from the end of the tour to the lift. When we exited the lift building we had no idea where we were and had another walk back to meet our transport at the starting point.

Amazing have to see it too belive it .... - We would definitely recommend the Salt Mines it was really interesting and unbelievable how hard these people worked all those years ago to create the mine. Our tour guide was very informative and answered any questions people had, and it was great value. You will definitely get your steps in on this trip, but it is certainly worth it! At least your exit is only a short trip in the mine lift....

Great Complement to Krakow City Tours! - Our combined Auschwitz’s + Salt Mine tour got cancelled last minute the night before which was very frustrating but, as we came to understand, the cancellation was probably due to the heavy rains in Central Europe during the week we were here. We were able to book just the Salt Mine tour last minute and it all worked out great. Viktor was an amazing tour operator and driver - as a born and bred local, it was nice to get his perspective on Krakow vs. other Polish cities. We felt very taken care of. The salt mine tour itself was so fascinating in terms of the history, economics and artistry - at ~400 ft below the ground! It was the perfect complementary activity to all of the Krakow city activities. Highly recommend as part of any Krakow trip.

Great tour. A lot of walking - Really interesting trip. Wonderful guide, who was very informative. Amazing chapel. Seniors and families with young kids take note: You start the tour by walking down about 55 flights of stairs and you walk underground for about 2 hours.
