Wonderful tour of Turda area with a fantastic tour guide

The sights are truly breath-taking and the tour guide was very knowledgeable and answered each and every annoying questions we had with kindness and patience.
The Turda salt mine are unforgettable, the Rimetea area is just beautiful and picturesque, the local village is so quaint and cute and the people so welcoming.
Then we stopped at an impressive nunnery fully painted by nuns and we finished with taking photos of the Turda Gorge from a high point.
Highly recommended!

Tudor is a great tour guide, very friendly and easy to talk to. He picked me up at my accomodation on time. The tour was fun, informative from beginning to end and definitely worth it. It's also nice for solo travellers that want to spend a day in good company. I can highly recommend to do this tour with him. Such an memorable experience.

Tudor was our guide. He was very professional and passionate about his job. If you go with Tudor you can relax as he will guide you through all the way. We had our first hiking experience and we enjoyed it with Tudor. As always if you’re unsure trust Tudor :) Thank you! We definitely recommend!!!
Great tour

Tudor, the curly guide, has been great! We started with a spectacular tour of the salt mines: an impressive experience, that also included some rowing 🚣♀️ at the bottom of the most spectacular of caves. That was followed by a wonderful hiking and a visit to a beautiful hidden town. A must for everyone visiting Transylvania!!!

By far the best of the four tours I took in this trip in Romania

Tudor is one of the best guides I have ever had while traveling. He was on time to pick us at our hotel. The car was super comfortable and he drove smoothly, we did not feel unsafe at any time.
We went directly to Salina Turda. The entrance fee was included in the tour. We receive interesting information and managed to avoid the great groups also visiting the place.
It started raining, we ate a lángos outside Salina Turda, delicious, then tried to plan what to do in case the rain continued. Tudor thought of several solutions. We were lucky and could visit the Rimetea gorge, even if we could not walk over it due to the difficulty rain could bring. But even so, just walking back and forth the gorge was delightful. We chatted a lot, it's nice to have someone who knows how to hold a conversation.
In Rimetea we had a delicious meal (gulyás) and homemade palinca.
I would DEFINITELY book another tour with Tudor in case I am back to Romania.
The gorge can be challenging for people with walking issues, since at times the ground is irregular, slippery and one has even to use a rope to keep oneself safe.

More than a guided day, an experience with a new friend.
Rick_H

Tudor is an incredible man. Friendly, funny, knowledgeable. It was an absolute joy to spend the day with him. We did the salt mines, the gorge hike (and the extra bonus of walking back high on the cliffs, maybe not the best idea I've ever had but still fantastic), and a really cool village for dinner. But mostly, it was his company. Do yourself a favor, call Tudor. Next time I'm here, he's going to get to show me something else.
We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
