Opzioni del tour
Itinerario
Inizia il tuo tour nel centro di Cracovia, ammirando la bellezza della città lungo il percorso.
La miniera di sale di Wieliczka è uno dei monumenti polacchi più preziosi e affascinanti. Il primo sentiero turistico di Wieliczka è stato istituito già all'inizio del 19° secolo. Un paio di secoli dopo la miniera di sale è stata designata come uno dei primi siti del patrimonio mondiale dell'UNESCO (1978). Il percorso sotterraneo si snoda attraverso numerosi cunicoli, gallerie e camere, dove sono state conservate tracce dell'attività mineraria, oltre ad esempi d'arte, e composizioni a tema relative alla storia della miniera e alle sue leggende. Wieliczka è il più grande museo del patrimonio minerario del mondo... Inoltre, il microclima della miniera ha un effetto benefico sui visitatori che soffrono di asma e allergie. Il tour inizia con una discesa di 64 metri tramite scale. Verrai quindi condotto attraverso una serie di camere e ti verranno mostrati laghi sotterranei, santuari e monumenti di sale. Il viaggio termina a quota 135 metri sotto la superficie e il ritorno in superficie avviene tramite ascensore.
La Cappella di Santa Kinga è un santuario sotterraneo mozzafiato ricavato interamente dal sale, situato nelle profondità della storica miniera di sale di Wieliczka. Dedicato a Santa Kinga, questo straordinario spazio presenta intricate sculture di sale, lampadari di cristallo e dettagliati rilievi raffiguranti scene bibliche. Luogo di culto e capolavoro di artigianato, la cappella è considerata uno dei punti salienti della miniera e un simbolo del patrimonio minerario secolare.
Dopo aver visitato la Miniera di Sale e una giornata piena di emozioni, il tuo autista ti riporterà al centro di Cracovia (ovviamente, se hai scelto l’opzione di trasporto).

I got a text saying to meet outside of a hotel kiss n ride at 08:00. I waited there from 07:50-08:10. I then walked to the bus station platform G5 as instructed at the guide. I waited there from 8:35-8:55. I looked forward to this my whole trip and it’s extremely rude and unprofessional.
Pick up was at hotel and she was on time. Tour guide/ bus driver was a nice young lady but not what I would have described as a tour guide. No need to book a lunch. Waste of time and money. It's also not clear from the description on the tour that the tickets into the salt mines aren't included. So be very aware of this Whilst we thoroughly enjoyed the salt mines, they are impressive. Well worth the trip.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us! We are happy to hear that you thoroughly enjoyed the Wieliczka Salt Mine and found the incredible underground site well worth the trip! It’s also great to know that your hotel pickup was right on time and that our team member was pleasant and punctual. However, we deeply appreciate your candid points regarding the tour leader role, ticket inclusions, and lunch package: Ticket Pricing Transparency: We sincerely apologize for any confusion caused during the booking process. We offer multiple options for our tours—including both transfer-only options (where entry tickets are paid separately on-site) and full-guided package deals. We are currently updating our booking descriptions to ensure the differences between these options are crystal clear so there are no unexpected surprises at pickup. Tour Leader vs. Local Mine Guide: Per official regulations at the Wieliczka Salt Mine, all guests are guided through the underground routes exclusively by official, licensed mine guides. Our Discover Cracow staff accompany you during the journey to manage logistics, schedule times, and keep things running smoothly, but we will make sure our descriptions better clarify their role as transport coordinators/tour leaders rather than the underground tour guides. Lunch Package: We are truly sorry to hear that the lunch option did not meet your expectations. Your feedback is being passed directly to our catering provider so we can review both the quality and value offered to our guests. Thank you again for helping us improve our service. We wish you all the best on your future travels! Kind Regards, Discover Cracow Team
Wonderful experience. Our guide was very knowledgeable and made the experience better. You need to pace yourself because you’ll travel down three levels in about to two hours. I don’t recommend this activity if you’re claustrophobic. You’ll travel through some tight spaces. But all in all a wonderful experience.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed your visit to the Wieliczka Salt Mine and that our guide’s knowledge helped make the experience even more enjoyable. We also appreciate you highlighting the physical aspects of the tour. The mine involves a lot of walking and stairs, as well as some narrower underground passages, so your advice to pace yourself is very helpful for future visitors. Thank you for choosing us and for sharing such a detailed recommendation. We hope to welcome you again in Krakow! 😊
Overpriced Shuttle & Misleading Info – Do Not Book! ⭐☆☆☆☆Do not book this tour. They charged us full price for two seniors, completely ignoring the cheaper senior rate. To make matters worse, our tour guide actively misled us. They claimed that buying tickets directly at the site would cost 30% more. This is completely false. We checked the official ticket office at the salt mine: the prices were exactly the same, and senior discounts were readily available. This company does not provide an actual tour. They are just an overpriced shuttle service that drops you off at the salt cave. You can easily take an Uber from Krakow for about 50 PLN and save hundreds of local currency. Save your money, buy your own tickets, and avoid this rip-off.
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that you were disappointed with your experience. We would like to clarify a few points, as we believe there may have been a misunderstanding. Our product includes transportation to the Wieliczka Salt Mine and assistance with the visit, while the mine admission is provided according to the booking option selected. We do not intend to mislead our guests regarding ticket prices or available discounts. We take the allegation that our guide provided incorrect information very seriously. If you could contact us directly with your booking number and the date of your visit, we would be happy to investigate exactly what was communicated to you and address the matter with the team. Regarding the senior discount, eligibility and ticket pricing are determined by the Wieliczka Salt Mine, and we are always happy to clarify the applicable rates before booking. We’re sorry that the experience did not meet your expectations, and we appreciate you bringing these concerns to our attention.
Our guide Angelica for the salt mine tour was awesome, and our bus guide was also amazing! This was an awesome experience, don’t miss it!
Thank you so much for your fantastic review! We’re thrilled to hear that Angelica and our bus guide made your Wieliczka Salt Mine experience so enjoyable. We’ll be sure to share your kind words with them. We’re delighted that you had such a great time and truly appreciate your recommendation. We hope to welcome you again on your next visit to Krakow! 😊
Well worth your time to visit but would do it as a stand alone day not coupled with Auschwitz Guide was very good
Thank you for your feedback! We’re glad to hear that you found the Wieliczka Salt Mine well worth visiting and that you were happy with your guide. We also appreciate your suggestion regarding combining Wieliczka with Auschwitz. Both are very worthwhile experiences, but they are also quite extensive, and visiting them on separate days can certainly allow for a more relaxed experience. Thank you for choosing us, and we hope to welcome you again in Krakow! 😊
Really good experience in the Salt mine but not this operator ! Was NOT clear that we had to pay for entry tickets separately. Was NOT told we would exit in a different place and would have to find our own way back to the coach.
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry that some aspects of the tour information were not clear and that this caused frustration. Our apologies if the information regarding the entrance tickets and the meeting point after the Salt Mine visit was not communicated clearly enough. We understand how important it is to have these details explained in advance, and we will review how this information is presented to our guests to make it more transparent. We’re glad to hear that you enjoyed the Wieliczka Salt Mine itself. We appreciate your feedback and hope we can provide a smoother experience on a future visit.
Fascinating tour. Only disappointed that we didn’t see colorful areas depicted in your promotional photos.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re pleased to hear that you found the Wieliczka Salt Mine fascinating. We’re sorry that you were disappointed not to see some of the areas featured in our photos. The route through the mine can vary, and unfortunately not every chamber shown in promotional materials is necessarily included in every tour. We understand how this can be disappointing, especially when you have specific expectations from the photos. We appreciate your feedback and will take it into consideration when reviewing how we present the tour. We hope that, despite this, you still enjoyed discovering this remarkable underground
since the excursion from Crakow to Wieliczka would like to talk about the city and maybe pass by some objects. Also, emphasize the meeting time more specifically
Thank you for your feedback and suggestions! We appreciate your idea of making the journey from Krakow to Wieliczka more informative by sharing more about the city and pointing out interesting sights along the way. We’ll certainly take this into consideration. We also agree that the meeting time should be as clear and prominent as possible. We’ll review the information provided to guests to make sure the exact meeting time and location are easier to notice and understand before the tour. Thank you for helping us improve our service and for choosing DiscoverCracow! 😊
Really good experience- very touristy though! Admission is a bit expensive and you do tend to do the tourist line shuffle. The carvings are wonderful.
Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed the Wieliczka Salt Mine and especially the incredible salt carvings. They really are one of the highlights of the visit! As one of Poland’s most popular attractions, Wieliczka can certainly feel busy and touristy, particularly during peak periods. Some queues and visitor flow are managed by the mine itself, so unfortunately these aspects are not always within our control. We appreciate your honest feedback and are glad that, despite the crowds, you had a good overall experience. Thank you for choosing us, and we hope to welcome you again in Krakow! 😊
