The tour is supposed to include clay house, vineyard, and the monastery, but during the tour we had to choose between the clay house and vineyard, so really there are only 2 things included. There is also no private tour of the salt cathedral as is described, they will give you an audio guide and let you wander by yourself for 2 hours in there. Unfortunately, you are tied to the train schedule out of the mine, unless you double back, which takes even longer. Make sure your guide tells you the train schedule before they leave you. We missed a train by a minute and had to wait a half hour. Our guide and driver were both nice and helpful overall.
