The salt mine was impressive. I loved all the information provided by our tour guide (Rodiga I think was her name). She gave us information not only about the salt mine but about romanian history and the city of Bucharest too. She spoke very good english and she answered all our questions. Thank you for an amazing experience.

The tour was excellent and well-organized. The bus was clean and punctual. Our guide, Sonia, was fantastic! She provided a detailed explanation of the itinerary and ensured everyone understood the meeting point and return time. During the drive to the salt mine, she shared interesting information about the historic buildings we passed and the city's history. We also requested a favor on the return trip, and she went above and beyond to accommodate us. I highly recommend this tour!

Apart from initial misdirection to the meeting point, the trip was comfortable, the driver/guide was knowledgeable, helpful and able to field all questions thrown at him. The mine itself was most impressive and the staff are well trained in moving the maximum number of visitors in the minimum of time. All in all, a very smooth operation.
