    It's a must trip absolutely fantastic, prompt pick up and return, the guide in my opinion walked to quickly my partner and I were on occasions left behind as my partner does struggle to walk fast, then dropped further back taking photos, but still well worth it

    Exceeded my expectations! The queuing system by language into the attraction could’ve been clearer but the guides were proficient historians and the chambers were incredibly well constructed. Would highly recommend as a must-do experience when in Krakow.

    Given a pick up time not where I asked a little walk from where I was staying . Time for pick up was 12.50 which I acknowledged the night before . At 12.00 while I was in my room I checked my ticket to get into the mine and that said 11.45 so I panicked rang the number but was told I needed to speak to the tour operator which I didn’t we went to the pick up for 12.50 . Other people had experienced the same Please please inform people if the time changes in future

    The mines are definitely worth a visit. Very clean and dry inside I thought they would be damp. Only thing that wasn’t good and happens a lot from what you read in the reviews is they change your time. We should have been picked up at 11.25 and they changed it at 19.30 the evening before to pickup at 14.25 which was very annoying as we had to rearrange everything we had planned.

    This was not a hotel pick up. Driver was awful, poor English and he stopped off to get food for himself on the way. Journey took 90 minutes, we ended up getting an uber back which took 20 minutes. Apart from transport the salt mines were very good
