    Such a fun and interesting experience! At the beginning of the tour, they put you in special mining…read moreoutfits, and then you take a little train ride into the mine, which was a really neat way to start the experience. There are two slides inside the mine, and those were definitely one of the most fun parts! If slides aren't your thing or you aren't able to do them for physical reasons, there is also a ramp you can walk down instead, so you don't have to miss out on the tour. The tour itself was interesting, and it was really neat getting to see inside the mine and learn more about how everything works. It's something different from the other sightseeing in Berchtesgaden and was definitely worth doing. Pet friendly: Dogs are not permitted inside the salt mine, so this is one attraction where you'll need to make other arrangements for your pet.

    What a fun tour! I was looking for something kind of silly to do on our vacation, and after a day…read moreup at the Eagle's Nest, this seemed like a fun way to unwind. You are given a miner's jumpsuit and a locker to put your valuables in....no personal recording devices on this tour! Next, you get picked up by a miner's train and the tour begins...you are taken directly into a mountain through some very narrow passages. At the end of the railway, you get off and begin walking through various rooms showing you the history of the mine, including various pieces of equipment used over the years. You learn a little bit about the topography of the mountain range and how extensive the mine and others like it are. At two separate points, you slide down a wooden slide, and go deeper into the earth. Smile, because there is one of those attraction cameras that catch your reaction to the descent. A little more walking and you are corralled onto a floating platform that floats (it's pulled by a pulley system) across an underground lake. The water is crystal clear and there is a very nice light show as you cross. At the end of the tour, you hop back on the train and ascend to where you originally got on. Someone is there to take yet another picture of you! Once you are off the train, you turn in your jumpsuit, retrieve your belongings, and exit through the gift shop. The gift shop consists of bottles of salt from the mine, as well as the usual touristy stuff: clothing, bags, postcards, etc. Parking for tourists is across the street in a paid lot with a tunnel to get you safely across the road. We were lucky, in that our tour had about 15-20 people in it, so we could see and hear everything quite easily. The day was sunny and clear, so maybe people just didn't want to be inside on such a nice day, but that is exactly when I would advise to see something like this, as it apparently gets very crowded on rainy days. 19/2021
