Great tour but a little expensive compared to what you will visit! - We had a wonderful time. It takes about 45 minutes by car to reach the Bochnia mine from Krakow. Maciej was a very helpful, efficient and friendly attendant. The tour of the mine lasts about 2h30 plus a break. A specific guide who speaks English accompanied us inside the mine. There is a small train tour lasting 5 minutes and a boat tour over a length of 200m. It makes a bit of a gadget for the visit even if it is very nice. The rest is done on foot. The tour is embellished with various explanations, interactive videos and nice anecdotes to understand the history of the mine and what the work of the various miners etc. consisted of. There is an audio guide in English that is perfect. It takes a good level of English for non-English speakers if you want to understand all the explanations that can be technical. The Bochnia mine is also much less popular than its Wieliczka counterpart. That's an extra reason to go because you'll be quiet. We met a maximum of fifty people during our visit to Bochnia. In conclusion, this tour is a must but it remains a bit expensive for what you will do there. I paid 71 euros per person. It seems to me exaggerated and that's why I can't put 5 stars.

Disappointed, I would book the better know Salt Mines tour - We were disappointed that it wasn’t better advertised that this isn’t the better known Salt Mines tour. Our guide Margaret was lovely and very friendly and helpful but we were let down by the fact this tour seems to be aimed at children and not adults. During our tour there were a lot of young school trips going on. The staff on site also didn’t speak English, which hinted that this tour was not very touristy. The tour itself was quite long, not feeling that we actually saw a lot just walked a lot and content felt very much aimed at children with the videos/ graphics used. We wish we had know there were 2 Salt Mines in Krakow and booked the other tour/ location. The boat and train were only for a minute or 2, felt this was what interested me in this tour when I saw it online and wasn’t worth it at all.
