The trip went very smoothly, no queues, good clear English speaking guides. It would just have been good to stop for maybe 15 minutes to eat lunch, rather than do so in the minibus between venues.
Shuttle service was great

The shuttle service and skip the line tickets provided by our shuttle drivers both made a fantastic experience. Safe driving, prompt, and kind! Would use again and would recommend to others.

What an amazing day. And through no fault of their town - traffic meant we missed our slot at the Salt Mines. Tomas our driver tried so hard to get us there, but accidents and Easter traffic meant this was unachievable. Round of applause for Tomas for trying so hard. Our guide was extremely compassionate, great, very informative, Well done for Viatour and Mr Shuttle tours for an immediate refund. We recognised the difficulties experienced today and the efforts Tomas went to to try and ensure we had the full experience booked.
Amazing

Absolutely brilliant day well worth it the company mr shuttle were fantastic and highly recommend using them !! It was a heavy sad start to the day with such an eye opening experience with such gratitude for the lives we live today !! The salt mines were real cool and an uplifting turn to the day amazed by the stunning sculptures and chapels a space of pure beauty and exellence. Travel and transfers very comfortable and the guys were warm and welcoming and very helpful !! Lunch was efficient and rather tasty great addition to the tour as food in these places are rather expensive !! Thank you krystan for a special day to remember for our family .
