Bucharest: Top Gear Road and Wild Brown Bears Day Day Trip
Simon_G, Sep 2026
Top trip
It was a fantastic day. Pick up in Bucharest, then off to the mountains. We had a short comfort break to grab some breakfast and coffee then we went along the Top Gear road up to the lake. Unfortunately it was foggy, but the food in the tent was amazing. On the way up and down we saw 6 bears. A photostop and pause at the dam before heading back. 12 hour trip and worth every penny.

Fantastic - so much fun!
This is something different to do whilst in Bucharest! We had a great time. I would recommend booking a weekend morning as the roads in Bucharest are crazy any other time but the instructor was amazing. Good tutorial before you go out onto the roads and really clear guidance once you are out and about. Would definately recommend booking this. ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This Salt Mine is Amazing!
Go to the Salt Mine! It’s a must do!! This place will literally blow your mind. It is stunning and the air is great for your lungs. Plan on spending time inside, as the longer you stay, the better. Sebastian was our guide and he was so helpful and knowledgeable. He gave me additional links for things to do during our stay in Bucharest. Hotel pick up was a plus.

Dracula Castle, Peles and Transylvania, Premium Private Tour
Roalja, Aug 2026
România on the map was a very good choice.
We had an excellent experience with Daniel as our guide and driver. Pick up from our hotel was on time, then our day out in his car was very comfortable. Daniel was able to tell us all about România and Transylvania and answer all our questions. We ended up being the first through Peles Castle in the morning ahead of a large tour group. It was made even more special as he was able to accompany us. I wouldn’t recommend Bran Castle as it was so busy and not much to see compared to the fabulous Peles. The countryside was beautiful and varied and lunch at Braşov very pleasant. We got away early in the morning so didn’t experience the road traffic which many reviewers mentioned.

No salty tears at the salt mines
I really enjoyed visiting the salt mine. Perhaps what could have been missing was the option to have a guided tour, but to be honest I don't think it would be needed for this. Worth the money.
