  Tudor was an amazing guide. This was our favourite day in Cluj. BOOK THIS TRIP! It’s not uphill or strenuous. My partner has never hiked and she already wants to do it again! It’s absolutely breathtaking. You can also zipline from the top down into the Gorge for around £8, if not Tudor will drive you down with him to the starting point instead. He provided walking sticks, chocolate bars and water. Was good craic and chatty knew so much, kept the group engaged with one another so the even the solo travellers were making friends. We stopped half way to have drinks and share some snacks (you should bring some) Each drive was around 20-30mins. With the drive home 1 hour. Tour was from 9-6pm Turda salt mine, a great mine. Ours was included in the hike trip. The mine has a fairground and underground lake, you can hire boats to row around for about £5. Remetea village, cute little village. Again included in our hike tour along with a Monastery down the road. Very cheap wine at about 50p a glass, we had a lunch stop here the restaurant had lots of options, took card payment and was very very cheap. We are already planning a return to Cluj solely to try another one of Tudors day trips. Thank you Tudor for a day we will never forget. Cait & Sarah xx

  We visited Cluj in February, low season for tourism and cold wintery conditions. Tudor picked us up from the centre of Cluj and immediately gave us Romanian snacks and bottled water for the day as it was a busy one. We were the only 2 people which was actually great as we took the whole day at our own pace and spent as much/little time as we needed at each of the stops. 30 minute drive to the spectacular Salina Turda. Tudor took us round himself and was great with information and facts, before giving us some free time to explore the theme park activities and rowing boats on the underground salt lake (extra cost). Another 30 minute drive to the Turda Gorge for an epic 9km walk. We walked through the gorge and over the icy ground (Tudor provided crampons and walking poles which were both needed because of some frozen parts) before a decent uphill stretch to get beautiful views over the top of the gorge and surrounding areas. A final 30 minute drive to the traditional village of Rametea to see some of the wonderful architecture and a traditional meal in a local restaurant (extra cost). Goulash was the choice recommended to us, warming us up on a cold winter's day. A short stop on the drive home to a working monastery, built recently and hand-painted by the nuns before being dropped off back in the main square. All-in-all, a great day out despite the cold weather and it being quiet in the tourist areas. Tudor (Curly) is a knowledgeable, accommodating and hospitable guide, who doesn't just do these tours but also much more should you need anything extra during your time in Cluj. But this tour was great for our 3-day trip and helped us to see all of the main attractions in the area plus more. Thanks Tudor.

  This was such an excellent tour with Tudor as the guide. Having his knowledge going through the Tudra Salt Mine was invaluable to help us really appreciate the mine. Two of the other stops (hiking and monestary) were off the normal tourist route, and were really beautiful. We even stopped for views of the gorge and my children got a chance to zipline, which was the highlight of their trip to Romania. Tudor was extremely helpful and friendly the entire time and obviously loved his country and the nature he was showing us. We would highly recommend and would love to do a tour with him again!
