Iulia – Denmark

This was an amazing experience and quite impressive being able to go under ground at - 135m and witness the imensity of the salt mine was humbling. We had Matthew driving us back and forth and he was very kind, accommodating and communicative (he had sent us information the day before on WhatsApp and always kept us informed). Even more so, he was so kind to drop us off closer to the hotel, on his way back to the salt mine, seeing as we stayed in the Jewish Quarter. Joanna was our guide in the mine, she was great, knowledgeable and funny. If I would change soemthing, that would be to offer somehow the option, to remain around the salt mine a while longer after the tour is finished to walk around and experience the atmosphere. All was very good and efficient, I guess we just felt we could have used an hour or so just to look around! Either way, great experience.
