Stunning attraction - Excellent trip out.
The scenery enroute was stunning.
The mine itself is great - it is huge and beautiful but also rather cold - be aware.. :-)
We played crazy golf and strolled around and stopped at the cafe.
Highly recommended.

Salt mine is unique - We were in a small group of 5, picked up at our hotel which was great. Small minibus and we stopped for a break. The salt mine is unique and really where else can you see such a thing? So it was worthwhile.

Better the doing nothing in Bucharest!! - Incredibly huge cavern! Very cool temperature which I loved! Not really a guided tour. More like a ride from Bucharest, drop off, and pick up 2 hours later.
