Is the third time in 10 years I did this tour and every time I was very impressed. The laser show on the water is the cherry on the torte - always gave me goose skin. And the 2 slides were the delight for our 5 years old daughter and a bit of adrenaline for the parents :) Really nice experience!

This was a fun excursion. However beware that if you are coming from Munich you will enter Austria and have to obtain a vignette car toll sticker or you will be fined. We had no clue that we were entering Austria when we were coming from Munich since we had no plans to leave Germany. Google did not warn us and right as we exited we were stopped and fined. The Salt Mines were fun but turned out pricey due to the unexpected fine. The audio tour was good and the store was very interesting with lots of small souvenir items such as Salt Mine Gin and salts.

The entire experience was fantastic. The guide was helpful for those that weren't German, we had audio assistance to hear what was being said and the tour was interesting. The little train ride was fun, and the slides down to the next level added a totally different aspect to the experience. Even a little ferry ride on the mirror lake. Definitely worth the visit!

Very interresting tour (about 2 hours) and beautiful site. Right in the middle of the Bavarian Alps, scenery is spectacular. Tour is very fun, they provide a complete overall, you get a tour of the mines, tools used. Visited last July with 2 teens (15 and 17 years old) and they LOVED it. The train ride, the slides, the tranquility inside the mine. Even the restaurant on the side has delicious meals and affordable prices. I highly reccommend it

They give two or three German tours and then do one in English. Which is great but if you're expecting to take the 12:15 tour and want it in English, you probably aren't getting on for another half hour or even 45 minutes. Then the tour takes another hour. So take that into account. We missed a boat ride by 10 minutes because of this (luckily, I hadn't prepaid for that one so we weren't out any money! The tour is fun and informative. I learned a lot about salt mining and we had some fun slides and a boat ride. It was my kids' favorite part of our Germany/Austria vacation!

First time to visit a salt mine . Very cool. Both mentally and physically. Extremely hot there this past September so, a ride deep into the earth's core was the perfect fix . The history of the mine was fascinating. The docent was very articulate and easy to understand. The light show was amazing. Berchtesgaden itself is a town to behold . Highly recommend a visit . Will go back.

A fun, exciting, and amazing experience for the entire family. This was my 2nd visit (the last one was 14 years ago), and I was very glad that we re-visited! This is a must see and do adventure!! Nick, Kim and Grant S.

Please consider that this is a guided tour and there are only some 60 places per time slot. You should definitely buy tickets in advance and come at least 20 mins earlier, as there's a short walk from parking lot to the entrance and you need extra time to pick up and put on the suit. This is a real mine, not some adventure park, so if you are claustrophobic or anxious about going deep into the earth, just skip it! Our kids (and we as well) found the train ride and the slides exciting and the mirror lake just stunning. The tour was very informative and interesting and our guide Steffi very funny! We loved it! The only thing I don't like is that you are not allowed to take photos, but have to buy official photos if you want to have some memories...
