    Tyler

    Asked on October 31st, 2024

    How many hours of driving are there on Day 3 when driving from Budapest to Krakow? Will there be a few toilet stops and a stop for lunch along the way? Also, do you think there would be time for us to organise our own trip to the Wieliczka Salt Mine on the afternoon of Day 4? Do you think this would fit into the schedule ok?

    Transport
    • KompasOperatorWritten November 2024

      The trip from Budapest to Krakow approximately 7 hours, every 2 hours the bus will make a stop for a break. We usually don't recommend to prebook optional tours, since we can not provide a precise time when is the sightseeing will be done.
