Good experience good kind driver would recommend
Fantastic driver really helpful
Maciek was a very good driver and shared his knowledge before we got to the Salt Mines. He looked after us very well when we got there and collected us promptly after the tour. He kindly dropped us off at the Jewish Quarter on our return. No complaints at all
Simon was a very good guide. He was on time collecting us, and he was very entertaining and informative
The trip to the salt mines was really interesting and beautiful. Milosz met us for our hotel and answered all our questions, he was very helpful.
Enjoyed the trip very much. Guide and taxi driver was great. Would reccomend
All the organization since I booked the trip, the pick up, the attention and information during the whole journey until the return back to the hotel has been very professional, on time, with a brand new and clean van and special thanks to Milo for his care and taking care of any minor detail we may request or need. I fully recommend Milo in particular and the company he is representing. Very professional and good standards.
Our guide haroune was very good and very patient great guy and a fantastic experience
Tour is great, valued of time and energy. Simon who picked me up is work smart and very kind. He guides and organised everything. His talent make everyone feel comfortable.
Excelent trip our guide gave some good recomendations for the rest of our trip outside of this one
Adam from 1000 miles was amazing he did above and beyond. If anyone is going to Krakow and wants to go on a trip contact Adam at 1000 miles
Get trip, well organised. Good communication
Great experience! A must see when in Poland!
Pickup instructions before trip were perfect and our driver Stephan was chatty, fun and very informative. He even took time to show us some additional sights on the way back to Krackow. The visit to the Salt Mines was wonderful, even if the walk back to the exit lift was rather long 😉
It was an amazing experience with loads of information about the Wieliczka salt mine for 700 years now. It’s a lot of long walk (up and down) the salt mine, out tour guides are really knowledgable, even our driver Szczepan has shared his knowledge in our tour
Brilliant experience, driver steph ( could not to do anymore than what he did and more on top.
Well organised, coach arrived on time. Guide informative and efficiently passed us onto the site guide. Would highly recommend trip. We also organised a golf buggy trip and a trip to Zakopane with Thousand Miles. Again, well-organised. Guides were informative and very helpful.
Excellent trip. Well organised, Guide took us through process until hand over to site guide. Site guide a 'mine' of information. Thoroughly recommend this tour
Nico was an excellent guide and driver. Extremely helpful with numerous tips and advice for travelers looking for a genuine polish experience. His restaurant recommendations were perfect. I would give him six stars if I could.
We had a trip to the Salt Mines booked! Niko was great! he was friendly, organised and full of knowledge of the city and restaurants. He more than happy to help when needed. We got a full clear break down of the days events and clear pick up times. The Mines are a great spectacle too! 100% recommend 👌
Niko was a great support. He contacted and confirmed trip picked us up and was very informative on route. He agreed plan when we exited. Would fully recommend him as a great asset to your team.
Olaf was a great tour guide! He was friendly and provided us lots of interesting information during our tour. He kept us updated with details for our pick up point the day before. He also provided us with some great recommendations for the rest of our trip. Thanks Olaf and Chris for being great hosts!
Olaf was great. Kept us updated with when pick up was and explained everything brilliantly and share local knowledge on the way. Definately worth the money and the salt mines where amazing and a must do!!
We booked this trip in advance of our arrival in Krakow and booked it via Hotel Jan, with Thousand Miles. I was contacted via WhatsApp the afternoon before our trip by the driver and guide Olaf who explained he would meet us outside the hotel at 8am. Olaf drove us to Wieliczka and explained what to expect during the tour and also the history of how that Saltmines began in Poland. He also advised us to stay close to our guide within the mines to hear the commentary via the head phones. The actual guide within the salt mines was very knowledgeable and explained everything in detail. After the trip Olaf met us outside and drove us back to Krakow. He gave us a running commentary as we drove through the city explaining the history of the areas we drove through. This was an added bonus to a very nice trip. I would recommend the trip and also Thousand Miles Tours to take you there
Margaret is a very pleasant and knowledgeable person. Easy to talk to and the journey was enjoyable. I would definitely recommend using again!
Margaret was punctual, professional, and extremely informative, demonstrating excellent knowledge throughout the trip. She was a credit to the company and played a significant part in making our visit to the Salt Mines such a wonderful and memorable experience.
Excellent experience. Our driver picked us up on time and showed us a few places of interest on the way their, Magic also took us to the entry queue and waited with us until we entered the Salt Mine. magic showed us another place of interest on the way back to the hotel.
Pawel was an amazing driver and wealth of information and knowledge. Would definitely recommend this trip to the salt mine with the wonderful Pawel.
Simon was an excellent guide very informative and went over and above to make our trip extra special
Great experience! Also, the guide, Niko was awesome!
We booked a trip to the salt mines with pickup at 10am, and from the moment Olaf arrived bang on time, the whole experience was fantastic. Olaf was an absolute pleasure to have as our driver and guide. On the journey there, he chatted with us throughout, recommended other places we could visit during our free time, and gave us plenty of helpful advice about what to expect once we arrived at the salt mines. Any questions we had, Olaf was more than happy to answer, explaining everything clearly and in perfect detail. The customer service was spot on, and the driving was smooth and comfortable throughout. When we finished at the salt mines, Olaf was already waiting for us with a big smile on his face. Unfortunately, three ladies who were travelling with us were around half an hour late. We really didn’t mind waiting, and in that time my family and Olaf had a great laugh and a general chat. It really showed what a genuinely friendly and caring person he is. Honestly, I don’t think we could have asked for a more polite, caring, funny and knowledgeable guide/driver. Olaf went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience, and he made the whole day even more enjoyable. We would absolutely recommend Olaf to anyone visiting the area. Fantastic service from start to finish — thank you, Olaf! 🙌 If you’re lucky enough to have Olaf as your driver, you’re in very good hands! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Olaf is such a lovely bloke, friendly and informative. Made the journey fun. Told us so much about Poland. Made us feel welcome.
Margaret our driver to the salt mine was very friendly. She pointed out several places of interest and gave us some great suggestions that have been very helpful. The tour guide at the salt mine did an excellent job.
Olaf was the best, super nice, told us stories about the history of where we were going and made us laugh!!! Great time, thank you Olaf!
Olaf was awesome! Very informative and very helpful! P.s not a snowman!! lol
Olaf was great! He was very friendly and informative. Shared insight from a local perspective. Anna was our tour guide within the mine itself and was also great. Architecture within the mine was amazing! Total tour was roughly 4 hours from pick up to drop off.
Olaf was very friendly and informative. We had many laughs on our trip!
We had Olaf as our guide for the Salt mines he was excellent on time very pleasant also very knowledgeable , he explained everything very well and was very patient even when customers were late for pick up , it went above what was expected and gave us another little tour on our ey back from the mines , I can highly recommended him and the company as I booked another trip through them - Maria Ireland
Olaf from thousand miles picked us up close to our hotel. Start to finish he was informative and friendly. The mine experience is very well organised and the tour amazing. Would recommend as a half day experience from Krakow.
Brilliant tour and great tour guide too. Olaf made the trip super easy and relaxing. Highly recommended.
Wieliczka Salt Mine Tour - amazing Trip with knowledgeable Guide. Our Hotel pick up was seamless and Olaf gave us all the details we needed to make the most of our trip. Definitely recommend!
There’s lots of steps but well worth the visit. Our driver ludvik was very pleasant and kept us informed at all times
We had a lovely fella called Ludwig was so helpful picked us up from our hotel and dropped us back afterwards and was very helpful with directions to orther places would highly recommend 👌
We booked our trip to the Wieliczka Salt Mines through 1000 Miles and were absolutely satisfied with the entire experience. We had originally booked the tour with another company, but unfortunately, it was cancelled due to organizational issues. Luckily, we then booked with 1000 Miles, and everything worked perfectly from start to finish. We were picked up on time from our accommodation in a comfortable minivan. The entire organization was very reliable and straightforward. Our driver, Haroune, was extremely friendly, helpful, and drove very safely and comfortably. The salt mines themselves were absolutely beautiful. For me, this was already my second visit, as I had visited the salt mines in April last year. Since a new part of the site has recently opened, we really wanted to see it as well. We spontaneously asked our driver if there would still be enough time to visit the new section, and he immediately helped make it possible. We were therefore able to extend our tour and visit the new part as well. Afterwards, Haroune drove us safely and on time back to our accommodation. We especially appreciated his flexibility, friendliness, and the excellent organization throughout the entire trip. Overall, everything was perfectly organized from the booking and pick-up to the tour and the return journey. We can definitely recommend 1000 Miles and would happily book another tour with them in the future!
Ludwik was a very good driver who solved difficult situations
Hariun picked us up from our hotel, smiley friendly cheeky chaps that was brilliant. Totally made us feel at ease and nothing was too much trouble. Great journey to the mine and was chatting to us throughout our journey with other guest. Totally knew what he was doing and post visit, which was great was very quickly on hand to collect us. Would highly recommend him as a tour guide and Thousand Miles was brilliant. Thank you and well done on an enjoyable visit 😁
The pick up and experience was great, the driver was sweet and wholesome, on the way to the destination the driver pointed out some tourist spots and their backstory. 😊
Very friendly and sympathic Driver. Gave us all the needed information we asked for and was on time for pickup. Would recommend Haroune as a Guide to everybody :)
It was a very good car, our driver was Haroune, he is very friendly
