Traveler reviews
Highly recommend
It was an amazing experience, everyone was so helpful and patient as we have never been to Poland before. Would highly recommend this company
Frustrating
We waited for an hour at the meetup point for us to be picked up, we were told to be there at 9:35 for departure at 9:45, we finally left around 10:45 closer to 11 as we were made to pay for the tickets on the spot. Very poor communication prior to the pick-up, we had to call and message ourselves to get some answers, and a badly chosen meetup location as it was full of other tour buses. We had no idea which bus was supposed to be ours as we weren't told the license plate or anything at all. The salt mine itself was awesome but again, the organisation of the tour was really chaotic. The tour guides were all shouting at each other, there were constant mix-ups about the number of tourists in our group and everyone seemed to be stressed out. We also missed out on multiple areas and sections of the mine without any explanation. Our tour guide was lovely though, kept apologising for the logistical issues they were having. After the tour, same issue with our tour driver, no clearly communicated meeting place, had to keep messaging her on Whatsapp. All in all, inconsistent experience, more so frustrating than anything else.
Fantastic day out
Julia was an exceptional guide .
Avoid booking through this company
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.
