Some tips:
- Visiting the salt mine might require a bit of physical fitness due to the stairs and walking involved. If you or your partner have any physical disabilities or health issues, it is advised to consider the physical requirement of this tour. Some parts of the mine can be a bit tight so if you or your partner has claustrophobia, it might be worth reconsidering the tour.
- The temperature underground is constantly around 14-16ยฐC, regardless of the season or the weather outside, so dress accordingly. The relative humidity in corridors is high and constant, around 70-80%, and therefore, being underground does not dry the respiratory tract. This makes it an ideal place for people with asthma or other respiratory issues.
- During the tour, there will be a few different souvenir shops. If you're interested in purchasing souvenirs, it might be a good idea to check out different shops before purchasing as prices and items available may vary.
