A top attraction and worth the entrance money and more! - An exceptionally well-run tour with Skip the Line tickets - everything worked splendidly from booking on-line the day before, meeting at the designated place and being admitted at the entry point - right up until we reached the end of the tour. The guide was very competent and relayed to the group just the right amount of information in a measured and understandable way. There are 800 steps downwards during the whole experience which lasts about an hour and a half and involves probably about a 2 mile walk but the time passes by very quickly and the distance is hardly noticed. The mine and chambers with exhibits are quite amazing with some of the most spectacular sights being nearer the end of the tour with one or two being almost hard to believe they exist. If you are physically able, it really is an attraction worth every penny paid!

100% recommended - Highly recommended the visit and impeccable management 100% recommended to take into account that the mine exit is not the same site as the entrance but is close by walking you reach without problem

Great trip - Such an interesting trip. Our guide Veronika was really good too. The sculptures made of salt were amazing. Make sure you were comfortable footwear as its 2.5 hrs of walking.

Salt mines - It was worth a visit but the tour felt rushed, even though we had a lady with mobility issues with our group. But overall worth a visit.

Wieliczka Salt Mine - The meeting point is not clearly marked (it is recommended to provide the link to the exact meeting place on the voucher) and this causes delays in the composition of the group. The guide is very good and the mines really interesting

Tja - If you want to experience something very tourist is this tour you should take on. The tour should go pretty quickly, as the next team of the tourist with their guide was right behind you. One got a little talk about how their everyday and work went back then. It's very beautiful. But I didn't think it was worth the price. In turn, it was not expensive to buy drinks,food and souvenirs.

Don’t believe the claims of free cancelation and 23/7 customer service. - I didn’t go and despite many attempts to cancel, I couldn’t. Tripadvisor still has not responded to my many pleas for cancelation. It was advertised as free cancelation but left out the fact that it was impossible to do so. I tried to reach the partner directly and there was no response either.
