A must see when in Krakow. 135 meters underground, and a 2 hour walk that flew by. Great english speaking guide.

This is one of those places that you feel honored to have been there. The cathedral inside the mine is just amazing, unbelievable, everything made from salt. For only that, the trip is worthwhile. To get there you can take a bus or a train from Krakow for a 10 km journey. Besides, this is the first world heritage site... More

This week in June is excursion time for students as exams have finished. It can be very crowded so,if you had a private group of around 6, you can skip through some large groups. I thought the history and construction amazing but the experience will depend on your guide. Good foot wear is essential as you will be walking for... More

Excellent visit which leads 135m underground, and a great relief to escape from the weather above ground. Amazing sights to be seen all of which engendered a previously unfelt respect for men who after their working day toil found time to carve out such exceptional religous images. A lifetime highlight! You should reserve at least a day to visit it

Likes: - beautiful salt sculptures - guide with a great sense of humour Dislikes: - an overall feeling, I expected something greater and more exciting

Locals pay a discounted rate, one rate for foreigners and another much cheaper rates for poles, surely this is against European rules. The Ticket office did not explain a Miners Route was also available so I may have missed out. There were so many people in there I had to listen to several guides in different languages at the same... More

This place is a tourist trap from start to finish. It costs about $25 each and every time there's a chance, they push you through another gift shop. The "attractions" of the mine are many carvings done in salt. While this is impressive, and the cathedral is amazing, it is not worth the time (2 hours) or the money. The... More

This is an excellent place to visit, and ideally suited if the weather isn't so good. The mine itself has various routes you can take and I'm sure they are equally worthwhile. You get a feeling of depth as soon as you begin the descent by step, take a look over the handrail to see well lit shaft disappear into... More

This is a great lesson in history as well as an unique destination. The salt mine is huge and takes about an hour and a half to go through. Many statues made from the salt to view, a nice gift shop and snack area. There is a lot of walking but it is a nice pace and well worth your... More
