Reviews from visitors

Kopalnia w Bochni na pewno warta jest odwiedzenia. Zwiedzanie z przeprawą łodzią zajmuje cztery godziny. Zjazd windą, przejazd kolejką, prezentacje multimedialne które zainteresują szczególnie dzieci. Jest inaczej niż w Wieliczce, a tempo zwiedzania wolniejsze.

Pobyt nocny w Kopalni Soli Bochnia jest jak niecodzienna przygoda - ciekawy i niesamowity. Wszystko zorganizowane jak należy. Pracownicy kopalni z którymi mieliśmy okazję się spotkać-(pobyt nocny 30.11.2024r.) to wspaniali ludzie, pełni opieki, humoru, życzliwości i wiedzy o tym miejscu. Bardzo polecam :)

Po 14 lata wróciliśmy do kopalni... Niesamowita przygoda, bardzo ciekawie opowiadana historia kopalni przez przewodniczkę p. Agnieszkę. Przez 4 godziny zdążyliśmy przejechać się kolejką, przepłynąć łódką i przejść wiele km trasy. Polecam bardzo!!!!
