Blend the natural allure of Prahova's salt mine with the sophisticated charm of Romanian wine culture. This carefully crafted full-day tour offers comfort, flexibility and a personal touch, as you travel in a small, friendly group aboard a modern mini-van.
Your adventure begins with an early morning departure from Bucharest. As the cityscape recedes, you'll find yourself enveloped by the serene beauty of the Romanian countryside, with its rolling hills and charming villages. Your first stop is Salina Prahova, one of Eastern Europe's most impressive underground salt mines. Delve deep into the earth to explore vast galleries adorned with intricate salt sculptures, breathe in the therapeutic microclimate of the mine's air, and discover the centuries-old traditions of salt extraction that have shaped the region's history. The Slănic Prahova Salt Mine, also known as the Unirea Mine, is the largest salt mine in Europe. Here, you can wander through subterranean galleries, marvelling at oddly-shaped and multi-coloured salt structures, as well as lakes with high salt concentrations.
Following this immersive underground experience, your journey continues to the heart of the Buzau wine region. Here, vine-covered hills stretch as far as the eye can see, offering a truly unforgettable sight. This tour promises not only to engage your senses but also to provide a deeper understanding of Romania's rich cultural heritage.
