Great experience - Really amazing place to visit. Just a warning for people being sold tickets off site. There is no fast pass as some ticket sellers suggest to get extra money. And be careful of the taxis outside. They will try and rip you off unless you get a fixed price

Don't miss this tour! - Wow! A must see tour. You will not be disappointed. Yes, there are approximately 830 stairs, but it is all down hill and you take an elevator at the end. The tour was well organized and our tour guide was just fabulous.

Salt mine tour - The size of the chambers and the whole scale of the mine is awesome. The guide, Evelina, was excellent. She was well informed, clear, efficient and conducted the tour very well. If you book through this company Poland tours you need to take your booking to the local pub up the road from the big official site and meet at a red and white meeting point sign outiside the pub
