Overall a great experience, we had a super guide and it was an amazing tour. But be aware of the way they sell the tickets on the site, because there is NO fass track as they say there is, we did pay a lot of money for that. And it was not an option when you are there. We booked with pickup and return service. Next time I would only book the tickets, and take a taxi out to the Mine.

Piotr was our driver who met us on time and had text me first with his details and vehicle registration. Piotr was friendly and happy and it was really lovely trip to and from the Salt mines. I would highly recommend Piotr for your driver. He was also kind enough to take us to our apartments rather than the place where we had initially met him. Thanks for a great experience 5*
Peter was awesome! On time, friendly and a smooth ride
Excellent tour, guide was very salt positive and informative! Driver Andriano Borowiec was super friendly and even gave recommendations for dishes to try while here in Poland
MAX SZKATULA was an absolute legend! He made us feel at ease with his friendly nature, he gave lots of interesting facts about krakow as we traveled with him and to top it off he was funny! Defo recommend MAX SZKATULA for any travel or tours. Great guy
had a transfer to the Salt Mine – such an incredible place! Who would have thought that an entire city of salt could exist underground? Huge thanks to Bohdan for the transfer, everything was fast, professional, and with a friendly atmosphere.
Salt Mine was an amazing experience. Very efficient tour. Our tour guide was top class Our driver Peter was punctual and informative and polite
Would highly recommend Peter he picked us up from hotel on time and was there to meet you at the end of tour to bring back to hotel. Amazing service, very efficient and reliable. Will most definitely use his service again. His English is excellent 👍
The mine was grand and the ride was comfortable and efficient, the driver was good at driving and kindness. Also he gave us some interesting information about the seesight

Great experience. Service provided by GR8WAY was very good. Special thanks to our driver Karol who was excellent, knowledgeable and very friendly.
On time perfect driver and waited on us at end of trip as trip over ran time expected fully recommend and the mini van was clean and fresh 10/10
Our driver (Austin) was considerate and thoughtful which made for an easy and relaxed transfer. He communicated well and was on time with the collection and made sure we were comfortable finding him after the tour of the salt mines. And thanks Austin for coming back to return our hat we left in your car!!! The salt mine trip was awesome - unmissable if you're visiting Krakow - thoroughly recommended.
It was an amazing experience going down to see Salt mine and all beautiful chambers with sculptures. Our driver David was great he got us there at perfect time and explained everything.
Filip, our personal driver, is a lovely young man. An excellent driver with perfect english, we had interesting conversations with him. As we drove along the route to the mine he pointed out various points of interest. He walked us to the tour staging area. We would highly recommend this tour, and our driver.
Once again, our driver, Dawid, was at the hotel promptly and greeting us with warm handshakes and friendly smile. While driving to the salt mines, we had bottled water available and awesome conversations! Once to the site, Dawid escorted us to meet our tour guide and told us where he would be parked when we were finished. The tour guide knew her job well. She answered all our questions and went into specific details that were great! The ride back to hotel, Dawid once again provided us with water bottles and great conversations! Excellent!
Peter was our driver back from the salt mines. He was a good driver and friendly. He spoke English quite well so we enjoyed the ride even though we got stuck in traffic. Thank you Peter.
We arranged this tour through our hotel as it suited our needs the best. Michal was timely, professional and very friendly. The vehicle was comfortable and clean. I’d strongly suggest using this company if you require a personalized service.
We had a great experience with Adrian Kotaba as our driver to and from the Salt Mine. Adrian made sure we knew exactly where we were going even making certain we were in the correct line for entering our tour. He also gave us some history of the town as well which we all enjoyed learning. Next time we visit we will be calling Adrian for all our transport needs. Highly recommend
The private transport by Gr8way and Bart specifically was fantastic. He was knowledgeable and accommodating. He even called a restaurant to make a reservation for us. Highly recommend his service.
Collected from hotel on time by driver Bart, who took us to the salt mines in a comfortable, air conditioned Mercedes playing great music on our journey. (Sorry about our singing though) 🤣 Thanks Bart for keeping in touch during our visit & finding us when we came out the wrong entrance
We took a ride with Dominika, and it was a very nice tour. Mrs Dominika was very welcoming and communicative and we were very content with the tour, thank you very much!
Bart our driver was so helpful,very polite and nothing was too much trouble,would highly recommend to anyone
Incredible destination. Bart our driver had organized everything to make our visit go as smoothly as possible. He speaks perfect English and it was a real plus for us who are a French family. The vehicle that transported us was very comfortable. I can only recommend this company and especially this driver who is always smiling, available and very attentive.
We booked the salt mine tour for seven of us and Max was our dedicated pick up driver. He went above and beyond looking after us and gave us lots of information on the way about buildings, the area, things to do in Krakow etc. He was extremely pleasant and helpful, he showed us exactly where to go when we got to the salt mine, where he would meet us when the tour was finished and couldn’t have been a better host!! Well done Max!!
Great trip, and looked after very well by our driver Max who picked us up and dropped us off from our trip
This tour was amazing and must see. Be prepared to walk. Our personal driver Wocjec was also extremely friendly and accommodating.
The trip was very enjoyable - our driver Wojciech was helpful and friendly. The mines were amazing and the tour guide was fantastic. All in all a great experience and would recommend.
Excellent service can not fault anything -had a wonderful day Marcel our driver for the day was great - door to door service 😀
Picked up by Marcel, private hire, the trip was well planned and would recommend it if you go to this area . Marcel was an excellent driver and very thoughtful and helpful , 👏
Krystian, from the Gr8way company was simply outstanding, he arranged my combined trips from Auschwitz-Birkenau & Wieliczka Salt Mine tour, couldn’t say enough about Krystian or the company so helpful, no stress. Because of the service they gave . I’m going back . So much to offer.
The salt mine was very interesting with a superb guide leading us. Special thank you to James for a making the journey to and from so comfortable. Overall a five star experience.
The driver was right on time and very friendly. He even stopped and showed us some herritage from a transfer-concentration camp in Krakau on our way to the salt mines. We said we wanted to visit the Schindler Fabriek during our stay and he even showed us where it is! He gave us some extra information and was very open to answer our question. And it was a very nice car! :) The salt mines where very impressive and exciting to see! I would definitely recommend it!
Bartek picked us up and took us back to our hotel. He was very nice and text beforehand to update when he would arrive.
Very courteous service. They are very nice to serve guesses. This is my experience for the trip in poland.
Driver Peter was well on time, made sure we could participate earlier. Afterwards we had to send a picture via whatsapp so he knew which exit we were at, we could wait there for him. A perfect experience!
Artem led us to the salt mine in Wieliczka, near Krakow. He looked after us from the beginning with kindness and patience. We had the wrong meeting point and he phoned us to understand where we were, giving us directions until we reached him. We travelled very well, comfortably, his Guide is expert and pleasant, the music in the background pleasant. Once on site he accompanied us until the start of the tour in Italian. Since the exit from the mine was at a different point from the entrance, he sent us a message and the meeting point, to facilitate our return. In short, a nice guy, punctual and patient, I think there is nothing better😉
Excellent contact with our driver and escort Max Szkatula Comments on Krakow relevant and interesting We are French and Max English speaking but he made sure we understood everything he said Pleasant and smiling and punctual Comfortable car Moreover we really liked and enjoyed the excursion itself 1st time we visited such a thing without equal for us To advise absolutely
Thanks to Dawid Salawa excellent driver very friendly and helpful. Clean car and flawless driving
Everything worked perfectly. A bit nervous when I didn't get confirmation quickly - but nothing was missed and no problems at all - they picked us up in good time in a new and fresh car. The driver went with us to the meeting point to make sure we got to the right place. We agreed that we would contact them when we were done - perfect as we could decide for ourselves if we wanted to look around before we went back to Krakow.
