Wow! - An excellent experience with a couple of ‘Wow’ moments. Met at the entrance by our English speaking guide Nicholas who was in charge of our group of around 35. Proceeded down the steps, 380 of them but fairly easy even for elderly people if you are able to walk OK. Lots of information coming from Nicholas along the way, explains the history etc. keep close to your guide otherwise you may miss some information. Having done no research I was astonished at the sight of the cathedral and could easily have stayed longer in the quiet gallery. Passing through the various chambers we were given sufficient time to take photos but bear in mind that there are other groups on your trail too so you do need to keep up. An excellent tour that I would probably do again if I am back there.

Moving and worthwhile - Amazing history with fantastic photographs. The guide Marta told the story very well and was able to explain very clearly as well as answer questions. Nice touch at the end of the tour to do a 20 minute walk around the outside too.

Great day out with no hassle! - Booking was very easy. Communication prior to pick up was excellent. On the day of the activity we were picked up at the hotel at the time specified by Wiktor, who provided us with clear instructions, and was waiting for us when the activity ended. Wiktor was friendly and efficient would definitely book with them again.

Well worth a visit. Would recommend this trip. - Picked up by our Legendary driver Mateusz in a nice clean Mercedes van. Another stop to collect a few others and then a nice steady drive the 20-30 mins to the Salt mine. All the pick up and transport was excellent, punctual and with excellent directions of how to find our driver. The salt mine itself was fantastic. Such a worthwhile visit. The scale of the caverns, the carvings, the preserved timbers is amazing. The guides are all excellent with excellent knowledge and language abilities (English in our case). The trip involves some walking (probably walking for the majority of 2 hours, but this is in short bursts as you enter a new area and then stop for a brief talk). The walking should be nothing too strenuous for a reasonably fit person. Definitely worth a visit. Mateusz was excellent and very engaging.

Interesting salt mine tour - Salt mine is stunning. Although there were many groups visiting the salt mine, it was well organised and smooth. Totally worth visiting! We got back to the city around 2:30pm, still got plenty of time to visit other places. Our driver Kamil was very helpful and communicative, he dropped us off at places near the next destinations.
