Highly recommend this trip. If you get Joseph as your guide you've hit the jackpot. He's a very knowledgeable nice guy. The salt mines are vast and somewhat chilly( bring something warm). Dinner was terrific. The village is historic. The Gorge, well, you have to be fairly sure footed as the path is stoney. A day well spent (from about 8am to 6pm).
We had a great day with Geta. She speaks excellent English and French. We learned a lot about salt mines thanks to her, explore the Turda Gorge and had a good time in the village of Rimeata. We enjoyed his company and his friendly attentions. This was perfect ! We highly recommend this trip.
