I could prepare only one full day... - <p>I could prepare only one full day for sightseeing during my business trip, and was wondering which tour I should attend. My choice was definitely correct. Both the guide and driver were young, so nice, friendly, and dedicated, the guide on the site as well. The mine is not just a mine, like a museum the actual scene was more than the photos shown. There was a very heavy traffic jam on our way back I guess it's common in business days, so the tour would elongate to 8 hours or more.</p>

The company in charge of the tour... - <p>The company in charge of the tour were friendly and accommodating. They arrived to the hotel early and took me straight to Nemocon. There were two people in the car, the driver and his partner. The partner spoke English very well and was easy to get to know. Once we arrived, the tour guide at Nemocon was also very nice and spoke English very well. He was very informative with the tour and you can tell his excitement about the place. The actual salt mine is definitely worth checking out. Highly recommend it!</p>

Wonderful tour guide and driver... - <p>Wonderful tour guide and driver. Lunch was fantastic. Pro-tip: the basic cathedral tour is included with this booking but opt for the additional 45 minutes long miners tour where the basic tour concludes for small fee of 6,000 COP.</p>
