Amazing Experience of visiting a mine 135M deep. - A great experience. Peter picked us up from our hotel at the specified time. He was very informative about Krakow and even showed us some of the sites around the city. He also shared with us some places to visit, eat and drink. The trip to the Salt Mine was more enjoyable by the fact Peter shared his knowledge of Krakow with us. Once we arrived at the Salt Mine we joined a group of about 30 people with a tour guide. Although we enjoyed the tour it seemed to be a little rushed. The tour guide would speak about an exhibit and if you was towards the end of the group by the time you got to that exhibit they would be talking about the next exhibit. The icing on the cake was when we got to the large chapel with its chandeliers. Lots of sculptures, chambers and chapels made from salt.

Salt mines tour with family - Our trip to the salt mine was very interesting and the mine was incredible. The salt mine guide was informative. The whole trip was made all the better by our driver and guide, Jerry. He was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful can’t recommend him enough. He was so good at ensuring we saw as much of Krakow on the way to and from the salt mines. Really good and recommend this tour. Great communication and on time.
