Relax on a modern boat as you cruise along the Vistula River, taking in some of Krakow's most stunning sights. With a heated deck and comfortable leather sofas, you'll feel cozy and at home even on chilly days. On warmer days, head to the upper deck to enjoy breathtaking views while spending time outdoors.

Afterward, switch to a bus for a trip to Wieliczka, a quaint town near Krakow, home to one of Europe's largest and oldest salt mines, dating back 700 years. The mine extends 340 meters deep, with over 245 kilometers of corridors and tunnels. The tourist route spans over 3 kilometers and includes more than 20 chambers, underground lakes, and a variety of corridors and structures. Among them is the remarkable Church of St. Kinga, the patron saint of miners—a unique underground church adorned with chandeliers, carvings, and statues all sculpted from salt. The mine boasts a special healing microclimate, and at a depth of 135 meters, there's even a sanatorium.

    Very pleasant boat tour up and down the Vistula with plenty of time to see Wawel Castle and other sections of Krakow, then the guided tour of the salt mine was well done and highly informative.

  • Great experience and worth a visit

    River cruise was an hour but didn't really see anything else we had seen before, although the Wawel Castle from the water was great viewing. We were met from the cruise and taken to our taxi by a guide and onto the Salt Mines. Victor out guide was amazing. Transfer back with Greg was great and dropped off right next to our apartment. Well worth the money and great day thank you
