Description

Discover the wonders beneath the surface of Poland as you journey from Krakow to the remarkable Wieliczka Salt Mine, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This half-day guided tour invites you to explore a labyrinth of salt tunnels, chapels, and breathtaking sculptures carved from "white gold."

Begin your adventure with a convenient pickup from your hotel or a central meeting point in Krakow, ensuring a smooth start to your experience. After a comfortable transfer, descend 64 meters by stairs into the cool, atmospheric depths of the mine, where the temperature remains a pleasant 14-16°C year-round.

A knowledgeable local guide will lead you through a maze of underground chambers, shimmering lakes, and intricate salt monuments. Along the way, you'll learn about centuries of mining history and admire the artistry that has made Wieliczka one of Poland's most treasured attractions.

The tour lasts approximately 4.5 hours, with around two hours spent underground. After ascending by lift back to the surface, you’ll return to Krakow, enriched by the unique sights and stories of this extraordinary place. All fees, admission tickets, and guided services are included for a hassle-free visit.

Spaces on this unforgettable journey are limited, so check availability and secure your spot today for a truly memorable Krakow adventure.
