The tourist office offers many guided tours of the city as a group. And if you lack time, you can just target the two monuments of the city (out of salt): Saint-Anatoile and Notre-Dame-Liberator, whose glazed tile dome is unique in the region. See also: The apothicairerie of the th century, with its period instruments and a beautiful collection of Nevers earthenware pots. And if the timing of the visits does not suit you, the tourist office also offers several free discovery tours of the city, whose plans are available free upon request at the reception. If you want to have fun with your family, try the «Master of Secrets» pistes game for children aged 7 to 12 to discover Salins and its history in a playful way.

Unfortunately they only do French tours out of peak season, and the audio guide has only around 15 minutes of talking for a 60 minute tour. It is also not very obvious when you need to press play on the next audio file, there are small signs but these are a bit hidden, and they number more than the files they give you.
We used Google translate to live translate the tour guide, and found there was so much more information given in the speaking tour, which made it ashame the audio guide was so short.
A lot of the displays don't have English translations. You also have to bring your own phone and headphones to use for the audio tour, otherwise you have to buy some from the counter.
Overall, an interesting visit, I'm sure it'd be fantastic in French or peak season, but for English speakers, the flow of the tour could do with a bit more work.
