  • R

    Rachael

    Asked on March 1st, 2026

    Can you personalize your tours by adding on something extra ? Or possibly skipping something and doing something else.?

    Tour Details
    • Transylvania Live Expert in TransylvaniaOperator•Written March 2026

      If you feel not wanting to visit Turda Salt mine is not absolutely necessary to do that. In this particularly case/example we can recommend you to visit Hoia Baciu forest with a guide and you can do that while you'll be in Cluj Napoca. Hoia Baciu forest tours are available during evenings. So it's not necessary to pay extra for somebody to bring you to Cluj.

      If you have in mind what kind of extra activities you wish to have during the tour let me know and we can discuss if applies or not.

      The price for single traveler is EUR 1549.

      Debra

      Traveler•Written February 2026

      I've got a question concerning round trip flights From MIA airport to Bucharest from July 9th to July 16th. When I search flights on the internet searching from MIA to BUH it shows me landing in the OTP airport rather than the BUH airport that are nearly 5 miles apart. would I be met at the OTP by a representative or need a taxi to the BUH? also when I search for a flight from the 9th to the 16th it gives me the 16th next day ??? does that mean 9th to 17th?? want to make certain that I land at the correct airport at the correct time. Turkish or Air France. what would you recommend as the landing date?? the 15th, 16th, or 17th.

    • Transylvania Live Expert in TransylvaniaOperator•Written February 2026

      You should fly into OTP Airport - Henri Coanda Airport ( Otopeni)

      Your tour starts on July 11, 2026 at 10:00 AM. Your tour guide will meet you at MOXA Boutique Hotel , Mihail Moxa street, no. 4

      Your tour ends on July 17, 2026, around 6-7 PM. Drop off will be at the Airport ( OTP) or Moxa Boutique Hotel.
      Please have in mind that the accommodation on July 17 is not included in the tour fare.

      Most of our guests are coming a day earlier ( in your case July 10) and leave a day before the tour ( e.g.: July 18).
      In this case is necessary to make accommodation arrangements for those extra nights.
      If you want us we can book for you extra nights accommodation. the price for a single room with breakfast included at Moxa Boutique is EUR 110/ room/night.

      Currently, the price remains as listed, and adjustments are typically rare. Should any changes occur, we would notify you promptly and provide further details on how they might affect your booking.

      with the tour starting in Bucharest on the 9th of July & ending on the 16th What flights days would you recommend??

    • Transylvania Live Expert in TransylvaniaOperator•Written April 2026

      Your tour starting on July 11, 2026, at 10:00 AM from MOXA Boutique Hotel, and ending on July 17, 2026.

      Please note that the evening of the 17th is not covered in the tour fare, and many of our guests choose to arrive a day early and depart a day after the tour. If you require accommodation for the extra nights on July 10 and July 17, we're here to assist you with those arrangements.

    • Transylvania Live Expert in TransylvaniaOperator•Written June 2025

      Unfortunately, the travel insurance associated with your August 2024 tour cannot be transferred to your new 2025 booking. This is because your new booking was made after the original tour's departure date, and the insurance policy is no longer valid for transfer. You will need to purchase a new travel insurance policy for your upcoming tour.
