The initial part of the tour (Auschwitz) was perfect in its organization and precision of the guide. The frankly unprofessional part came later: we changed vehicles, getting on a smaller one, to reach the salt mine. Our driver took us to our destination, then told us that the guide was an hour late and there were two options: wait out there (in the cold, in the snow) or go to a nearby restaurant to get something. We were forced to sit in the restaurant and order something. After over an hour the drivers took us back to the mine, where we could begin the visit.

Very friendly guides and drivers. Was a very good use of time and managed to fit both experiences in one day and thoroughly enjoyed.

From the app and email they gave us two different meeting places. We notified them and right at the time of departure they said that we were late and that they were not expecting us, with everything paid and running around the city due to poor organization. Except for that, the rest is very correct.

It was excellent! A long day, but everything was well organized. It started very early (at 5:50) which was not the time I selected, but I was already expecting it to change. The transport was well done, without waiting, the visit was excellent and I recommend it to everyone. We took lunch, but there is a restaurant in the salt mines. I think that the waiting time there may not be enough for some groups to have lunch.
