Stand by fo queues, Plenty of steps to descend, plenty to see. There is a small lift to get you back, very small lift but it's fast. Very impressive overall imo. The guide was very good and got the travellers involved as we went round. 5 star experience for me.
Excellent tour. Driver very good, friendly and informative. Most helpful
A really informative and enjoyable tour of the Salt Mines. Special shout out to our driver Jerry who was able to give us a historical tour of Krakow on our journey to and from the Salt mines, he really made the trip.
Really enjoyable experience exploring a fascinating salt mine with historical relevance. Very spacious and not claustrophobic at all, but be prepared to go down about 400 steps at the start. Pick up and driver were very punctual and professional.
Excellent allround and really nice guy on top of tour
This tour was very informative. The salt mines are beautiful! Would recommend this tour to anyone that doesn’t have issue with walking down so many stairs.
Great trip to a fascinating place. The miners carvings are breathtaking. Just be aware it’s a lot of stairs and walking.
Used My Krakow Driver. Excellent service. Got a great discount. Tour was great - well worth it.
Well organised, with smooth communication. Tour was great, very smooth experience for transfers. Recommended!
Great service we were picked up on time by a very friendly and knowledgeable Tomas. Everything ran like clockwork. Make sure to wear trainers or shoes with a grip as some of the floors were uneven
It was quite rushed, barely time to really take in the experience. Towards the end. The guide didn't explain well enough where to wait for the Museum tour (included). I missed it because the waiting area was in an entire different place.
The Salt Mines are definitely worth a vist. Absolutely stunning. Having Tomas as our driver made the travelling so easy. He picked our group up from multiple hotels, and dropped us at the airport after our tour, keeping hold of our luggage while we were in. Very friendly driver and bizarrely used to stay 5 minutes from our house! Small world. Also used My Krakow Driver for our initial airport to Krakow transfers & again dropped out group at 3 different hotels. Price very reasonable. Good communication and very reliable. Whst more can you ask for?
An interesting and unique experience. It does involve an LOT of stairs and walking. Our driver was friendly and full of information about the visit and Krakow history.
Very pleasant driver. Good communication . GreatEnglish speaking guide. Lots of descending steps but really worth it! Beautiful carved salt sculptures. Really tight Elevator to ascend but was very fast ascent. Pick up and drop to hotel or town square.
The driver who took us there, Thomas, was excellent and made sure that we made it into the entrance without problems.
Interesting and informative.we chose a private car to take us to and return from. Our driver was excellent, timely and provided a lot of useful Information
Great tour in comfort ***** After airport transfer We booked the Saltmine Tour which was all sorted with My Krakow Driver 👍
Really great trip. Really surprised by how impressive the Salt Mines were. Our driver, Thomas, was excellent. He was really friendly and patiently waited as some of our group were quite late getting back to the bus. I'd highly recommend this trip.
Wonderful experience with this guide. He was on time and gave us perfect information about the Salt Mines. During the drive we learned so much about the way of life in Poland. Highly recommend
Excellent communication, always on time and very supportive. Comfortable and always clean car :) Highly recommend Hubert and his service. Both for Wieliczka trips as well as taxi support in Kraków
Very nice trip, well planned with tickets in to the salt mine. Nice car and a good driver with timely manner. Good taxi service to the airport also.
Wasn't sure what to expect at the salt mines but thought this trip was excellent. I couldn't believe how much there was to see. Driver and guide was excellent.
The trip was very well organized! Very professional, comfortable, everything on time and we didn't have to worry about anything. I recommend it to anyone visiting Krakow. Thank you, Hubert!
The mines are beautiful and our guide very nice and at the same time prepared and a maximum professionalism. Wonderful Viator organization, you book and don't think about anything anymore, they do everything and you guide step by step. Very good.
The salt mine is a must-see attraction. Really suggestive place. Very interesting
Everything worked out fine. The driver was on time. Many steps down in the mine and long distances. Visitation was worth it.
Highly recommended, few people the option to pick you up and I return to the accommodation very comfortable and the two very attentive and helpful boys.
Friendly drivers and picked up neatly on time. The visit to the salt mine is a fun experience.
Driver very nice and helpful. He was able to meet our needs both on the way and on the way back. The tour to the mine???...... just great!!!
Everything was as contracted. Very friendly and helpful driver. The guide in Spanish explained many interesting things
Did not receive complete information from Viator about how the guided tour would take place. Otherwise good. Awesome experience. The pickup from the hotel worked well.
We met Hubert at the airport, on the way to the hotel he offered us some tours of Krakow, including the one to the mine. We preferred to do the tour he proposed because it was cheaper than one already booked. I highly recommend.
Our visit to the salt mines near Krakow was truly amazingly beautiful and incredibly interesting. The underground rooms, impressive chapels and detailed salt sculptures wowed us time and again. It is almost impossible to comprehend what humans have already managed to create underground hundreds of years ago. What made our experience extra special was our taxi driver. He was incredibly friendly, spoke good English and arranged everything perfectly for us – from the tickets to the pickup afterwards. Thanks to him, everything went smoothly and stress-free, allowing us to fully enjoy this unique sight. An absolute must for anyone visiting Krakow!
