3-Nights Guided 4x4 Car Tour
Welcome to Southern Transylvania! We invite you to discover the beauty of this region through a unique excursion: a guided tour with a 4X4 vehicle!
During the tour, you will be accompanied by a local guide who will skillfully and passionately lead you on spectacular off-road routes, as well as on paved roads winding through the hills of Transylvania. We will explore together remote areas hidden in the mountains and traverse picturesque settlements built by Romanians, Saxons, or Hungarians, each with its own distinct character.
Our tours are entirely customizable! You can choose the areas you want to explore during the two days. Want to extend the excursion? You can add guided tour days at the price of 245 euros per day, for two people (including the tour by car, guide, accommodation, meals, and wine tasting).
