★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 948 reviews · 12 hours · from $57

Review of Bucharest’s Transfăgărășan day trip, with bears, Vidraru Dam, Bâlea Lake, mountain views, practical tips, price, and seasonal limits.

“I can really say that both our driver and guide were really nice and kind people. The guide was explaining everything about its history and how it is today; his English was really good, and he was also telling us many funny stories. The trip was indeed a lot of hours and tiring, but in my opinion, it was 100% worth the view and experience; we even saw bears! One thing I would recommend is being able to stay a bit longer at the destination, as there are views, restaurants, and mini shops!”

The weather was a bit mixed so we had the option to do another hike through a stunning gorge. So we did and it was very remarkable. After that we drove to the restaurant in a village on top of the mountains. It was truly special because of the view and also because of the traditional and local food.
