A perfect tour - We were late and Irina was nice enough to wait for us and take us on a perfect tour of the castle. The history of Poland was explained in detail. It was a must tour. Thank you!

Well worth a visit. - The salt mines are extraordinary and well worth a visit. The tour was well organised. Our driver, Kamil, was lovely and full of lots of interesting information. The guide around the salt mine was also excellent.
There are 800 steps down with a lift back up. I’m 62 and not particularly fit but I found it fine.

Exceeded my expectations… - The trip to the saltmines exceeded my expectations.. Jarek the tour guide contacted the day before to confirm time and pickup point. On the way to the mine Jarek took us for a little sightseeing and explained the history behind it, also he took us again on the way back . Also such a nice touch , Jarek sent through some restaurants and info on certain sightseeing venues that are free at certain times of the week !! trip was well worth it… fabulous ⭐️

Excellent guide above and beyond. - What a find.!!! We were let down by a company we had booked with prior to our holiday.
Had a look on Trip advisor and contacted the above company.
Our driver Marcin Spinda what an absolute Gent so wish we had found him on day one.
His knowledge of the area was fantastic!!
I really can’t praise this guy enough.
We are hoping to return to Poland and Marcin will certainly be getting a telephone call
