Know before you go
- When purchasing Skip-the-line tickets, remember that your tour begins with a meeting with our representative at the designated meeting point in Wieliczka. Plan your visit to ensure you arrive on time to assemble with the group
- The tour is not recommended for people with reduced mobility – there are 800 stairs along the route (the lift takes visitors only to the top).
- People suffering from claustrophobia are advised not to participate in the tour due to the lift that takes you up and the cramped corridors.
- The time may change. We will inform you of any changes the day before the tour.
- Make sure to provide the correct contact details, otherwise, we will not be able to contact you in case of organisational changes.
- The temperature underground is 14-16 degrees, so any time of the year is the best time to visit - but make sure you dress appropriately.
- If you have purchased a reduced ticket, do not forget to bring a document entitling you to the discount.
