A fascinating tour of the mine; a wonderful place to visit for something a little different! The tour guide was extremely informative and her English was impeccable making for a very welcoming and interesting tour. The lift cages for descending to and ascending from the mine are small and cosy, but the caverns and tunnels down below are vast. A highly recommended experience.

Erg bijzonder om middenin een dorpje met een kleine lift af te dalen in een mijn 230 meter diep. Het is een zoutmijn die nog in werking is maar zich steeds meer richt op rondleidingen in de mijn. De gids was fantastisch en vertelde honderduit over de mijn. Even iets totaal anders dan zon, zee, strand. Echte aanrader!

Een heerlijke ervaring bij warme dagen. Mooi om te zien hoe de mijn nog steeds gebruikt wordt en de ervaren gids wist alles duidelijk uit te leggen. Erg goed te volgen. Het liftje is eventjes krap, maar zeker de moeite waard. Een hele belevenis.
