Salt mine amazing

4.00We 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
Is it worth going to the Wieliczka Salt Mine in Krakow?

4.00I 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.
Good tour

5.00Very 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.
Good tour

5.00It 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

4.00This 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
Just go there.

3.00Amazing to experience the mines however didn’t not enjoy how big the groups are and that there are large groups ahead and behind you. Felt very crowded and there was a lot of people pushing to see the caves. The walk back to the lift back up also felt very unorganised
