5.00Simona (sorry if I’ve spelt wrong!) was an amazing guide. On time, full of energy, lots and lots of interesting knowledge about any topic that was brought up, sharing the history of Romania, the salt mines etc. Plenty of time spent in each place, she took us through some incredibly scenic places, recommended great food, incredibly day. Definitely recommend
Really good time 100% recommended

4.00Pretty good experience overall. I had a great time in the mine and in the gorge. Sadly I won't give a 5 rating because we skipped the monastery for some reason
Nice Tour

5.00Very fun! Tudor was knowledgable and accommodating. We did a ton of activities that were all worth the trip. He even dropped us off at our hotel at the end since it was nearby

5.00Full day trip to visit Salina Turda (Salt mine), hike through Turda Gorge and Rimetea. Tudor was very knowledgeable about things and I really liked Tudor's approach to individual tourism with small groups and support to locals - that gave that special little extra for me 😊. Day was very relaxed with lots of information, good amount of physical activity, nice views and local insights and "secret" viewpoints. Recommend ✨️👌
A must-do experience in Cluj

5.00Tudor is a fantastic guide, he is a local from Cluj so he has a lot of experience and knowledge in the area. The Turda salt mine is incredible and something you won’t find elsewhere and Tudor knows a lot about it so it helps putting everything into context; following the salt mine visit we took a lovely hike in the canyon which was challenging but manageable and it gave us some great views and a much needed break from the city. We had lunch at a lovely local place where the food was amazing and fairly priced, and we finished the day by visiting a monastery which is definitely a hidden gem, an absolutely beautiful building with an even more beautiful and interesting history inside.
Visiting Cluj Napoca with Curly Guide Tours is like traveling with friends.

5.00I bought a day trip with Curly Guide Tours as a birthday present for my sister. After I booked this day, I got a very friendly mail from the management. From the first moment, I felt this was the right choise. My sister and her friends were picked up right on time. The trip was great. The guide was excellent. It feeled like he was part of family. He helped where he could and did the best he could to make sure it was a unforgettable day. Even after they arrived back in the hotel, my sister had some more requests. The guide proposed to organize an extra day. That day, they visited some more nice places in Romenia. If you want to visist Cluj Napoca in a very relaxed way, don't hesitate to contact Curly Guide Tours. It is like traveling with your best friend.
