Two remarkable stories in one day
This trip presents Lesser Poland in two distinct settings. First comes Kraków, a city of kings, historic streets and internationally recognised monuments. Then Wieliczka takes you underground into chambers, passages, lakes and chapels carved in salt.
Kraków – following the royal city
- Wawel Hill – a symbol of Polish history and one of the city’s defining landmarks.
- The Royal Route through representative streets and squares.
- Main Market Square with the Cloth Hall, Town Hall Tower and St Mary’s Basilica.
- Florian Gate and the historic centre, subject to the confirmed programme.
Wieliczka – a city underground
The tourist route leads through salt chambers, corridors and underground spaces. Chapels and salt sculptures are the visual highlight, while the guide explains the work of miners and the mine’s development since the Middle Ages. The route includes extensive walking and stairs.
Who is it for?
History, architecture and unusual-place enthusiasts, including families with older children. It is an intensive full-day programme without mountain climbs, but comfortable footwear and good walking tolerance are important.
Before departure
- Bring a warmer layer for the stable, cooler underground temperature.
- Carry documents required for any discount.
- Some Kraków sites and optional attractions may require separate tickets.
- Travellers with limited mobility should confirm the suitable mine route before booking.
