  • Magnificent experience in Turda Salt Mine

    Total and impressive experience in a deep mine. You have to walk and go down stairs, although there is elevator. I understand that people with reduced mobility should abstain. Highly recommended.

  • I felt like in a Sci-Fi movie

    By far Jetta was the best tour guide we had during our visit to Romania. Very knowledgeable about Romania's history and the Turda Salt Mines. I highly recommend this tour.

  • So much more interesting than visiting alone

    I debated going on my own versus taking a tour, and I'm so glad I decided on the tour instead. I got so much more out of the visit than I would have if I went on my own. I learned so much and Geta was an excellent guide who is very knowledgable and friendly. A great way to experience the mine and understand more about what it is about.

  • We recommend this tour
