Salt mines amazing, tour was great

Definitely recommend this tour. Driver was prompt and efficient. Your guide was excellent. There was an extra one hour portion for the tour that was optional but was not included with this tour package and we were disappointed to have to skip that. Otherwise we definitely recommend this. They’re so awesome!

Very good tour, highly recommended. The driver Matteusz (Matty) knew what he was doing, very smooth drive, as well as the guide was very knowledgable and provided lots of information as well as answered any questions we had. I also took the lunch and was expecting only a sandwitch and juice but there were also some fruits and a nice snack bar, that was a nice suprise!

Wieliczka Salt Mine Guided Tour with Hotel Transfers

Lynn_T, Jul 2026

Fantastic! Must see whilst in Krakow

Amazing experience from start to finish. Messaged the night before to confirm collection time from Hotel. Arrived a little early. Really friendly, helpful and informative guide. Sent tickets to your phone, making entry to the Salt Mines easy. Managed expectations in relation to how much you would be walking, the length of time it would be, and where you could exit. Arranged to meet again for transport back to hotel. Loved the Salt Mines. Amazing visually and really informative. Great for family, although be prepared to do a lot of walking. My big boys loved it. We dressed for warmth, it was 27degrees outside and it was warm in the Mines. We could have done with lighter clothing. Overall a fab experience. Would definitely recommend

A well planned tour

Excellent tour using welcomeinKrakow pre pick up info superb driver Mathius excellent and couldn't have done more. Slight downside Mine tour rushed would have liked another 20/30 minutes promised a 15 minute break in mine which was reduced to 6 on arrival at cafe toilets. This is a mine issue not the operator.

It's a long and tiring...

It's a long and tiring tour (about 20k steps recorded) but we already know this. We did salt mine first then Auschwitz-Birkenau. Good tour arrangement, our driver Piotr is very friendly. We had around 18 pax in the minibus, tour at both places will be joined by other groups with professional tour guides.

Auschwitz and salt mines

Our tour guide Lucas was very knowledgeable and extremely sensitive and respectful in telling the story he told of the people that lost their lives in Auschwitz. His facts and stories gave a moving insight to the history of the place where so many people lost their lives. We followed on to the salt minds. Was not sure what to expect but so glad we went. A very long day but well worth it

Great tour for our Group

Our Catholic pilgrimage had an itinerary change and were not going to be going to Auschwitz after all, so we booked this for our free afternoon/evening. It was very convenient to be picked up at the hotel & the price was reasonable. Our guide at the camps was very informative and we really felt like we learned new information from him.

Excellent communication...

Excellent communication from both the driver (Bartek) and guide (Dorotea ….I think that was her name). Our guide’s personal connection with Auschwitz was very moving and added another level of insight to the experience. Well worth the trip. A huge packed lunch at a reasonable price was arranged by Bartek. A definite must see to really experience and understand the horror of the holocost.

I had an excellent...

I had an excellent experience on this one-day tour. Everything was perfectly organized from start to finish. The transportation was comfortable, and it was so nice not to worry about any logistics throughout the day. Our guide was absolutely wonderful. She was friendly, professional, and very attentive to everyone in the group. Every time we returned to the bus, she carefully checked that everyone was present before we continued. She explained everything clearly, shared interesting information, and made sure everyone felt comfortable and informed. What I loved most was how easy and stress-free the whole experience was. Everything was arranged for us — transportation, timing, directions, and sightseeing. We could simply relax and enjoy the beautiful journey without having to plan or organize anything ourselves. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the area. Thank you for such a well-organized and enjoyable experience!

Wing_F, May 2026

Nice day in the countryside

This is not a popular tour but it’s great for getting away to nature and exploring the countryside by visiting three castles and walking amongst the trees and birds away from the main tourist crowds. Our guide David was good at driving and giving us free time to explore on our own with clear instructions. Much appreciated.
