Departure from Cluj at 5 pm. Scenic transfer to the Apuseni Mountains. Arrive in Rimetea village, also known as Torocko in Hungarian. Mining and manufacturing of the iron ore in the area brought fame and money to the village throughout the Middle Ages. But drama did not avoid this village and the need to reconstruct the village soon became reality. Uncover the story behind its fame, explore the historic streets and observe the local features of the famous white little houses. Transfer to the next village for a relaxing dining experience in a charming manor house restaurant. Enjoy the lovely mountain view, appreciate the friendly service and savor the best Transylvanian traditional cuisine. A board of local cheese and a bottle of Romanian wine will be offered from the house. Transfer back to Cluj later in the evening.
