Great experience but makes for a very long day with bus pickups and drop offs.
Service was very responsive to questions.
Definitely order their lunch pack- you won’t have time to buy any food on site.
My schedule might have been unusual, but since I was only doing A-B tour, not the extra long day with salt mine, they ordered me a cab near my hotel (3 blocks outside old town) and I took a 25 minute cab (their expense, again, great communication to meet the cab).
I met the tour bus at a rural gas station (the cab driver was kind enough to let me wait in his cab)
Unfortunately, I don’t think any of the salt mine passengers knew I was boarding and it was already quite full (mostly of sleeping passengers tired from the early morning tour) and no one was happy about making a stop and getting a seat cleared for me. It was all a little awkward.
But the driver was fantastic and really helpful and friendly and our on site tour guide was amazing.
It’s definitely worth going - just allow yourself some time to rest (fyi the bus ride can be longer on the way back due to rush hour traffic- I left at 11:30a and didn’t get back until 19:30.
