Overview of your Sibiu tour:

In 2009 while I was working for the Tourism Board in Sibiu, I had the unique occasion to join the famous Top Gear show cast on the Transfagarasan road to shot one of their fantastic shows. It was so impressive to watch live Jeremy Clarkson and the rest of the crew driving their sports cars on the winding road. Ever since, the Transfagarasan road has become one of the top attractions in Romania for the nature and adrenaline lovers! Driving on it is a great challenge but your attention will also be taken by the amazing view: high rocky mountains, fresh springs, a spectacular waterfall. Actually, I should admit I love it more in wintertime, when the whole area gets covered with a huge layer of snow. We can take the cable car and reach the top, till the frozen glaciar lake. Up there, in the cable car, above mountain peaks and a waterfall, the feeling is majestic! We can also enjoy a visit at the hotel of ice built from the ice of the frozen lake. We can have a drink here - an unforgettable experience!

Your Sibiu tour itinerary

Our itinerary includes: - A drive on the Transfagarasn winding road - on our way up till the top we'll have several stops to admire the view and take some stunning pictures. - Walk by Balea Lake: up there, on the top, we shall have a breathtaking view over the whole valley and the road. If you bring your trekking shoes we can even have a hiking tour around the lake or higher, up in the mountains. It is an easy-medium tour of about 1-3 hours. - Carta Abbey - a beautiful quiet place with so many mysterious stories. - Optional, we can have a hike up in the mountains. - For lunch I know a great trout farm with delicious food and amazing view! I can customize the tour!
