About this experience
Explore the Wieliczka Salt Mine on a trip from Krakow. This well-preserved mine, active since the 13th century, produced table salt until 2007. As a UNESCO World Heritage Site, it spans nine levels and stretches over 300 kilometers, reaching depths of 327 meters.
Your visit starts with a descent down 380 steps to the first level, 64 meters underground. The tour ends with a lift ride from the third level, 135 meters deep.
The mine features impressive corridors and salt rock sculptures made by miners and modern artists, showcasing its rich history. The mine has also intrigued notable visitors, including Nicolaus Copernicus, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, and Frederic Chopin.

HMBotel notes for choosing your ticket
Compare the inclusions above with your plans: admission, a guided visit and a combination ticket may cover different services. The venue name alone is not enough to compare them.
Check the meeting point and arrival instructions before adding another activity. The displayed duration describes the activity; plan travel from your hotel and your return separately.
Booking and payment take place with Tiqets. On that final page, confirm the date, participants, visit language, final price and cancellation rules; an indicative HMBotel price is not a guarantee of availability.
