What to expect

Wieliczka is one of the few salt mines in the world listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site, captivating visitors for over 700 years. As you venture underground, you'll dive into a living history that resonates in every corner of this extraordinary mine.

On the tour, you'll experience the thrill of descending 65 meters below the surface, where you'll learn the rules of the journey ahead. Then, you'll be stunned by the magnificent underground chapels, including the world-famous St. Kinga's Chapel, carved entirely out of salt – a true masterpiece that must be seen to be believed.

During this experience, you'll discover an underground lake, and learn how mining technology has evolved through the ages. To top it off, you'll ride a real mining lift back to the surface for an exhilarating conclusion.

Wieliczka isn't just a salt mine – it's a journey through time, art, and history that will leave you with memories to last a lifetime. When you're in Krakow, this is an experience you simply cannot miss.
