  • Salina Turda, Turda, Romania
    First, we'll delve into the fascinating history of the Turda Salt Mine, one of the world's oldest and most unique salt mines. The mine has a rich history that dates back to the Roman Empire. Salt extraction from this mine began during the Roman occupation in 107 AD, and it continued to be a significant source of salt for the region for centuries. Step inside this remarkable underground world and marvel at the striking salt formations, massive halls, and impressive machinery. Learn about the mine's fascinating history and hear the stories of those who worked here centuries ago.

  • Castelul Corvinilor, Hunedoara, Romania
    Next, we'll make our way to the majestic Corvin Castle, one of Europe's most stunning castles. The castle was originally built by the nobleman Voicu of Hunedoara in the 14th century, but it was later expanded and transformed into a formidable fortress by his son, John Hunyadi. The castle played a significant role in defending the region against the Ottoman Empire, and it was a vital military stronghold for the Kingdom of Hungary. Step back in time as you wander through the castle's halls and courtyards, marvel at the intricate Gothic architecture, and learn about the castle's storied past. Marvel at its Gothic architecture, learn about its rich history and explore its numerous chambers, halls, and courtyards.
    120 minutes
  • Cetatea Alba Iulia, Alba Iulia, Romania
    Finally, we'll explore the grandeur of the Alba Carolina Fortress, a stunning example of Vauban-style military architecture. Discover the history of this impressive fortress and its role in Romania's past as we explore its many courtyards, ramparts, and bastions. In 1918, Alba Iulia played a pivotal role in the unification of Romania when the Great National Assembly, comprising over 1,200 delegates from all over the country, gathered in the city to declare the unification of Transylvania with Romania. This event is considered one of the most important moments in modern Romanian history and is celebrated every year on December 1st as Romania's National Day. You'll be amazed at the scale and detail of this magnificent structure. You will explore the massive walls, towers, and bastions. In the evening, you will return to Cluj-Napoca, and your day trip will come to an end.

This was a working salt mine up until mid-20th century. It has several large mined areas, the main one being 13 stories deep. They've converted it into a tourist attraction and it is worth a visit to see the huge salt dome and see how people mined out so much salt with hand tools. There is a boat "ride" where you can paddle on a salt lake and a mini-amusement park, but we liked seeing the natural salt dome and how people had mined it. One strange thing is that there is no information on how the salt dome was formed geologically. This isn't even the largest salt mine in Europe but it is still deeply impressive.

Wonderful experience. Very well organized, without being in a hurry, but visiting most of the three places and some time to visit the place at your own pace. Great guide!
