Take a look at the royal city from the deck of a modern catamaran, embarking on a short panoramic cruise on the Vistula River. Go to Wieliczka and admire the wonderful underground wonders made of salt by the forces of nature and the work of human hands


Relax on the Vistula River on a modern boat and admire many of Krakow's most beautiful attractions along the way. A heated deck and comfortable leather sofas will make you feel at home even on cold days. On warmer days, we invite you to the upper platform to enjoy the beautiful views while spending time outdoors. Hear the history of Krakow from a modern boat sound system and watch a multimedia presentation on a 50-inch screen.
Looking at Krakow from the river side, you will notice such monuments as:
● Defensive walls of Wawel with a panorama of the Royal Castle, the Cathedral and the silhouette of a dragon
● The Skałka Church
● The Church of St. Catherine
● House of the Polish Pope John Paul II
● Norbertine Monastery
● Kościuszko Mound
● The Camaldolese Monastery in Bielany
● Kościuszko Stage of Water
● Krakow bridges and footbridges

Then, change to the bus and drive to Wieliczka - a small town near Krakow, where one of the largest ancient salt mines in Europe (700 years) is located. The depth of the mine is 340 meters, the total length of the corridors and tunnels is over 245 kilometers.

The tourist route is over 3 km long and includes over 20 halls, underground lakes, a multitude of corridors and buildings, including the largest and one of a kind Church of St. Kinga - the patron saint of miners. The underground church is richly decorated with chandeliers, carvings and statues of saints carved out of salt. There is a specific healing microclimate in the mine, and there is a sanatorium at a depth of 135 m.

The Salt Mine in Wieliczka is on the UNESCO World Heritage List.
