Great experience
Evocative and interesting experience. Thanks to Karol, our driver, who assisted us from beginning to end. Very helpful. The salt mines are worth seeing.
Nice visit to a unique place. Everything is good!
Everything was very good, also thanks to Karol, the driver who assisted us with kindness throughout, from when he picked us up at the established meeting point to when he dropped us off back in Krakow. The mines are truly worth a visit.
