Itinerary

1. Krakow
You will be picked up from the chosen hotel in Kraków. Your driver will transport you to the tour starting point.
2. Wieliczka Salt Mine
Upon arrival, you and the tour leader will proceed to the Salt Mine, where you will meet a licensed guide and begin your tour. The 700-year-old mine and UNESCO World Heritage Site houses nearly 200 miles (300 km) of eerie tunnels, all carved by hand from salt blocks, and you’ll see the section that’s open to the public. With your guide, visit the three upper levels of the mine, at depths of 209 to 443 feet (64 to 135 meters). Begin with a descent down the stairs to the first level, where you’ll be led through chambers and shown underground lakes, shrines, and salt monuments. Admire the showstopper – the Chapel of St. Kinga – and marvel at how every one of its features, from chandeliers to the altar, is made of salt! Hear from your guide about the chapel’s history and how it took more than 30 years for two men to complete the wonder, which required more than 200,000 tons of rock salt.
Duration: 150 mins
3. Stare Miasto
After the tour ends, you will return to the bus and head back to the center of Krakow.
Duration: 45 mins
