Kraków travel answer 69 of 100

69. Should I choose Bochnia or Wieliczka Salt Mine?

Choose by the experience and route available on your date. Wieliczka’s Tourist Route includes its renowned carved chambers and St Kinga’s Chapel. Bochnia offers its own historic mine routes and multimedia interpretation. Compare language, walking and access requirements, duration, start point and transport, then book one well-matched visit. Do not assume a route, lift arrangement or ticket condition at one mine also applies at the other.
