Those mines look so interesting. THe place with the big columns reminded me of the Mines of Moria!

[@TheAwkwardTourists]

Definitely had some Lord of the Rings vibes!

Great vlog. The salt mines looked gorgeous. It is just amazing that most of that is salt. Can't wait for the next video

[@TheAwkwardTourists]

Thanks! It was quite an elaborate sight!

[@thepracticingartist]

My mom (from Poland) would tell me about the salt mines and I could never picture it. Your video was grant for me because I could see what she was talking about. She’s long gone but it was nice to be able to see what she saw as a child. Thanks for posting your wonderful videos and travels.

[@TheAwkwardTourists]

That's really cool. I'm glad our video could reconnect you with a memory of your Mom.

[@NickMayer]

Ok, I HATE YOU GUYS! Now I have ANOTHER place on my bucket list. Sheesh, enough already, why do you keep giving me awesome videos about places I fall in love with. It's like you don't even care! 😁

hahaha....

[@TheAwkwardTourists]

Sorry, not sorry

@@TheAwkwardTourists I'll get you all for this! You will PAY! 😁 😎

Went to Wieliczka this past summer. It was excellent and totally agree that public transport is super easy….direct bus from the centre. Hunters Stew (bigos) is very tasty 😋

[@TheAwkwardTourists]

Bigos was really good! We kinda wished we had taken public transportation. Oh well, live and learn!

[@avatarxs9377]

it's nostalgic to see it again, i was there on school trip when i was 10.

[@enricocurcio1610]

This mine is older than my COUNTRY, that's amazing I'm from Brasil btw

[@TheAwkwardTourists]

Yeah, It has been around for sooo long

[@dean-ka0trl980]

WOW that salt mine tour looked awesome. Being older I don't think we could do it, that would be so disappointing to miss seeing that. Thanks for the video for those of us that will probably never make it. Always enjoy your food tours, love cakes. Poland is so beautiful especially considering how far they have come from WWII. I watch a lot of WWII history so I'm anxious to see more of your upcoming videos. Your bloopers are my favorite, Kelly I love your faces. Keep up the great videos and stay safe.

[@TheAwkwardTourists]

We are planning a WW2 historical European trip which will hopefully happen this summer

I'm going to try and visit this on my trip to Poland in August

You definitely should, It's worth it

To see this, it's on my list ...

[@TheAwkwardTourists]

It was really cool!

[@joedugan7239]

Once again, great video! Love you happy travelers!

[@TheAwkwardTourists]

Glad you like them! We are working on a "Happy Travelers" merchandise line!

[@joedugan7239]

@@TheAwkwardTourists It will be our new lucky air travel shirts! Also, I wanted to tell you, our last flight attended was over the moon happy when I gave her a gift card and told her about your videos & the one explaining how to give gift cards to them. On a less happier note, my wife and I decided to cancel our upcoming Aruba trip as neither of us can afford to get "Stuck" there b/c of covid. Keep posting and we will keep watching, Peace out!

[@TheAwkwardTourists]

@@joedugan7239 Bummer about your cancelled trip! Hopefully you can reschedule it for a better time

[@karo4524]

Great video! Love Wieliczka Salt Mine. Visited in 2006 and hoping to travel to Poland this coming summer and show it to my kids. I remember eating at the underground restaurant was pretty cool, too. My husband (then boyfriend) and I also went on an additional tour (after the main tourist route) afterwards and loved it, too. Btw, Krakow has a ton of beautiful underground restaurants and bars located in the old cellars.

[@TheAwkwardTourists]

Thanks so much! We had a great time in the mines, hopefully you can get there soon to show it to your kids!

[@b2g.travel]

Thank you for sharing, it brought back fond memories of being there in 2017 - a random $254rt fare from Chicago (why not??!!) took us there and we had the grandest time. Like your videos!

[@TheAwkwardTourists]

Thats a great ticket price! I would have jumped on that too! Thanks for watching

[@marcinszrajber]

Its also the oldest company in the world. Over 700 years

[@TheAwkwardTourists]

That's so cool, I didn't know that

[@margsangster8994]

Hi guys, loving your videos of Poland! I’m hopefully heading there later this year, fingers crossed! I’m interested to hear that you thought the mines would be warmer inside compared to outside, as I had read the opposite. Were you correct? Also, did you find the floor or steps slippery at all? Safe travels!! Cheers. Marg

[@TheAwkwardTourists]

The temperature in the mine is about 60-65 year round, so it depends on what time of the year you travel. it was warmer for us, as we went in the middle of winter, but if you go during the summer, it would be colder than outside

[@margsangster8994]

@@TheAwkwardTourists okay no worries, yeah I’ll be there in October, so all good! Looks incredible! Cheers, Marg
