Review of a private day trip from Timisoara to Sarmizegetusa, Densus, Corvin Castle, and Deva Fortress with a local guide.
“This was a wonderful day trip following the advertised itinerary. Sergiu reached out to me prior to the outing to make sure everything was coordinated. While Corvin Castle was the highlight of the trip (and certainly worth the drive), the other stops were fantastic as well. Sergiu was fun to travel with and knowledgeable about the sites. I would highly recommend this tour if you find yourself in Timisoara.”

Taste Timisoara through langos, mici, pastries, beer, and local markets while learning the city’s story by tram and on foot.
“We LOVED this tour. Andrei and Téo were excellent guides and teachers. We visited markets and food stalls in the city center and beyond, had the opportunity to learn the tram system, and got to hear all about growing up in Romania. Andrei, our main guide, also gave us insight into the revolution in 1989 and the current political climate. We learned about so much more than food! And we were stuffed and happy by the end.”
Explore Timișoara’s communist past, 1989 Revolution sites, personal stories, and SCARTZ’s museum on a small-group tour.
“We couldn’t have wished for a better tour and tour guide. Andrei was extremely engaging and knowledgeable. We very much enjoyed his explanations, story telling and easy going manner of taking us along this tour. Andrei’s English was flawless. The fact that he had studied in the Netherlands (with some of us on the tour originating from there) was an extra cherry on top. It was nice to get to see parts of Timisoara that fall outside the more touristic zones, to get a taste of what daily life may have been like there in earlier times and today. Cannot recommend this tour highly enough!! Multcumesc 🙏”

Review of the private Timisoara day trip to Corvin Castle and Turda Salt Mine, with costs, timing, transport, highlights, and practical advice.
“Our guide, Sergui, was fantastic and had excellent knowledge of the area, including the salt mine and castle. I highly recommend this outing. However, it wasn't Sergui's fault, but the vehicle we traveled in was quite small for my family. Both my husband and brother-in-law are tall and have knee issues due to their age. A larger and more spacious vehicle would have made the experience better.”
