Resplan
Börja din tur i centrum av Kraków, beundra skönheten i staden längs vägen.
Wieliczkas saltgruva är en av de mest värdefulla och fascinerande polska monumenten. Den första turistleden i Wieliczka anlades redan i början av 1800-talet. Ett par århundraden senare utsågs saltgruvan till en av de första UNESCO:s världsarv (1978). Den underjordiska stigen leder genom många drivor, gallerier och kammare, där spår av gruvverksamhet har bevarats, såväl som exempel på konst och temakompositioner som relaterar till gruvans historia och dess legender. Wieliczka är världens största gruvkulturarvsmuseum... Dessutom har mikroklimatet i gruvan en gynnsam inverkan på besökare som lider av astma och allergier. Turen börjar med en nedstigning på 64 meter i trappor. Du leds sedan genom ett antal kammare och visas underjordiska sjöar, helgedomar och saltmonument. Resan avslutas på nivån 135 meter under ytan och återresan till ytan sker med hiss.
St. Kinga's Chapel är en hisnande underjordisk helgedom huggen helt ur salt, som ligger djupt inne i den historiska saltgruvan Wieliczka. Detta extraordinära utrymme är tillägnat Saint Kinga och har intrikata saltskulpturer, kristallkronor och detaljerade reliefer som skildrar bibliska scener. Kapellet är både en plats för dyrkan och ett mästerverk av hantverk och anses vara en av gruvans mest anmärkningsvärda höjdpunkter och en symbol för århundraden gamla gruvarv.
Efter att du besökt Saltgruvan och en dag full av spänning, kommer din chaufför att ta dig tillbaka till Krakóws centrum (naturligtvis om du har valt transportalternativet ).

Very interesting and some of the salt sculptures were jaw dropping especially at the end. I had difficulty hearing our guide through the earpiece. The only way to hear her was to take the earpiece out and stand as close to her as possible. The company moved the time of the trip from morning to afternoon which was not ideal as we already had something planned for later in the day.
We booked this tour well in advance. The day before, we were informed that the departure time had been changed to several hours earlier, which unfortunately did not work for us. I understand that unexpected changes can happen, but when it is the company that changes the scheduled time, customers should be given the option to cancel and receive a refund if the new time is no longer suitable. All communication is handled through WhatsApp. If you do not have the app, you will not receive or be able to read any updates regarding your tour. When we tried to cancel after the company moved the tour to three hours earlier than the time we had originally booked and paid for, we were told that neither a cancellation nor a refund was possible. Because of this experience, I unfortunately cannot recommend this company.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are deeply sorry to hear about your experience and understand how frustrating it is when schedule adjustments disrupt your travel plans. Because the Wieliczka Salt Mine is an extremely popular world heritage site with strict visitor quotas, the exact entrance slots are assigned directly by the mine’s management. As noted in our tour description, departure times can occasionally shift depending on the official tickets issued to us, though we always do our best to keep changes to a minimum and notify guests as far in advance as possible. Regarding our communication channels, we use WhatsApp as a quick and convenient way to reach travelers on the go, but we also send all important tour updates and confirmations via email and SMS to ensure guests without the app receive their details. We truly appreciate your feedback regarding how this timing change impacted your day, as it helps us continuously review how we communicate schedule adjustments to our guests. Kind Regards, Discover Cracow Team
I have claustrophobia, that's why I'm afraid to do it, but my second mind says that it's one of the best experiences I've had while in Krakow, Poland, and it's a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Since I'm with my husband, I decided why not give it a try, and I didn't regret it. I really enjoyed the tour, and our guide is so funny, so I didn't feel uncomfortable during the whole tour. I'm so glad I decided to do it, because it's a unique experience, and the history of the mines is incredible, especially how difficult the miners have been to get through before without the help of machines. I highly recommend that anyone visiting Krakow take this salt mine tour, you'll love it. I really appreciate our guide for such an incredible tour!

Many steps down, but a great trip. Takes about 2 hours with a guide. A nice place to visit, with much history.
Nice experience, but I wouldn't repeat it. Very focused on statues and not on the actual mine work. If you have little time in Krakow, do not opt for this activity.
Do NOT book with this company! They had terrible communication-I had reached out with questions prior to the tour and no response. The information indicated all included however when you click on full itinerary it indicates the salt mine admission is not included. They confirmed the day and time the day prior to the tour. Late afternoon the day before the tour they changed the time and pick up location even after confirming my original time. They sent an email that I needed to accept-respond to the email. I did respond indicating that I do not accept the last minute change as we had a conflict. Silence! Never heard back from them! They refuse to refund my money. So disappointing!!
Great place to visit. History of the salt mines is fascinating and St Kinga’s chapel is breathtaking. Well worth a visit whilst staying in Krakow. Only 30-40 minutes from city square by car/bus. Don’t be put off by the 800 steps as they are wide wooden steps in stages with handrails both sides, and you don’t have to walk down 800 all in one go.
Dear Traveler, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your wonderful review and for providing such reassuring advice for future visitors! We are absolutely thrilled to hear that you found the history of the Wieliczka Salt Mine fascinating and that the magnificent St. Kinga’s Chapel took your breath away. It truly is a subterranean wonder well worth the short 30-40 minute journey from the city square. Your practical tip about the stairs is incredibly helpful! Many guests feel a bit intimidated when they first hear about the 800 steps, so your reminder that they are sturdy, wooden, equipped with handrails, and broken up into manageable stages is fantastic advice. It makes a big difference for those planning their own underground adventure. Thank you once again for choosing to explore with us, and we hope to welcome you back for more unforgettable trips around Kraków in the future!

The chapel was amazing and 130 metres below ground. 9 floors of which 3 are open to the public. The remaining 6 will be filled with sand.
