Awesome Salt Mine! Thank you!
We paid for beat the queue to go in at 1130 & ended up queueing & going in after midday. This was caused as information telling us where to meet was confused many other people had the same issue. Once in salt mine was amazing & very interesting
Thank you for your feedback. We are glad you found the Salt Mine amazing, but we sincerely apologize for the confusion regarding the meeting point and the resulting delay. We take this seriously and are already improving our instructions to ensure a smoother, true "skip-the-line" experience for our future guests. kind regards, KrakowBooking Team
I thought it was going to be kind of lame, but then I went and my mind was blown. The altar is salt, the reliefs in the walls are salt, the tiles in the floor are salt and even the chandeliers are salt. I think we went on a morning tour and it was about half a day, so you'd still have a lot of time to wander around Krakow afterwards.The chapels, art, etc. were very awesome.
Thank you for this fantastic review! We are thrilled that the salt mine blew your mind and exceeded your expectations—the completely salt-carved chapels, floors, and chandeliers really are unique! It is also great to hear that the half-day morning tour gave you plenty of time to explore Kraków afterward. We appreciate your recommendation! kind regards, KrakowBooking Team
Very good. At the entrance there was a bit of waiting but not too long. The Fench speaking guide Pawel was very funny and provided wealth of details amd information. There are a lot of step and walking so make sure you are in good condition and comfortably shod. St Kinga's chapel was my favourite part, it was incredible to see how faith and art created beautiful statues and spaces under the ground. The sourroundings of the mine are pleasant as well with green spaces, shops and restaurants. Well worth a visit.
Thank you for your lovely review! We are thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the tour and that Pawel kept you entertained with his great humor and knowledge. St. Kinga's Chapel is truly a magical place. Thank you for the practical tips regarding the stairs and footwear—they will surely help future travelers. kind regards, KrakowBooking Team
Quite expensive but a very interesting guided tour. A bit confusing to use the voucher to get the tickets. Need to read the small print to collect the tickets
Thank you for your feedback! We are glad you found the tour interesting. We appreciate your note about the voucher process—we always want to make things as smooth as possible. We will review our instructions to ensure the ticket collection details stand out more clearly for our future guests. kind regards, KrakowBooking Team

Great experience, good guide. Recommended! Precise encounter with the tickets our in to the mines.
It was really easy to get to via train and I was text in advance so I knew where to go to get my ticket (by meeting someone outside the carpark) and they told me exactly where to find the English speaking guide! The tour itself was great and really informative! It was really pretty in the salt church down in the mines! My highlights was the lake and the salt sculptured Last Supper
This a very interesting place to visit Although the booking is a bit of skill There are no fast track tickets and they all come with a guide So buy direct from the mine itself we saved £70 by booking our own uber areas of using the ticket with Hotel pick up
Above expectations. Incredibly impressive
