Great trip, guide and transport was comfortable.
The salt mines were good,but I would have liked a little time to have a look around the little market stalls,obviously locals so it would have been nice to buy souvenirs.the guide wasn't very informative.
The salt mine was impressive. I loved all the information provided by our tour guide (Rodiga I think was her name). She gave us information not only about the salt mine but about romanian history and the city of Bucharest too. She spoke very good english and she answered all our questions. Thank you for an amazing experience.
The tour was excellent and well-organized. The bus was clean and punctual. Our guide, Sonia, was fantastic! She provided a detailed explanation of the itinerary and ensured everyone understood the meeting point and return time. During the drive to the salt mine, she shared interesting information about the historic buildings we passed and the city's history. We also requested a favor on the return trip, and she went above and beyond to accommodate us. I highly recommend this tour!
Apart from initial misdirection to the meeting point, the trip was comfortable, the driver/guide was knowledgeable, helpful and able to field all questions thrown at him. The mine itself was most impressive and the staff are well trained in moving the maximum number of visitors in the minimum of time. All in all, a very smooth operation.
Great service from Bucharest to the destination, highly recommend

Amazing day at Therme. Loads to do there to keep you entertained all day and also plenty of places to just lounge and relax. Food in the restaurant area was fresh, plentiful and reasonably priced. Lovely cocktails from the pool bar and loved sitting on the bar stools in the pool to enjoy them. 12 hours there and the time just flew by.
I had a fabulous time at Therme Bucharest last weekend. The whole experience from start to finish was simply amazing. The staff are very professional and friendly. The atmosphere is great and there is lots to keep you occupied from quiet spaces to the party pool . The treatment sessions in the saunas were great. The ladies doing the treatments are amazing how they do this several times a day is admirable. Plan to go again very soon. The lights at night are so beautiful
Everything was perfect. From lovely clean showers to towel hire.... lovely large clean pools... swim up bars.... lots of choice of saunas and massages... something for everyone and very well priced.
Great space and a vast range of resources to utilise . The staff were very helpful and polite. We loved the sauna experience and water slides.
Many big pools inside and outside with lots of swimup bars, high ceilings with big and luxurious palms and tropical plants, lots of interestings saunas ( like Hollywood Sauna, etc.), nice restaurants and very goood cocktails!
This place is perfect for a day of relaxation and recreation. Large indoor and outdoor pools, saunas for a variety of experiences, and a dash of fun with the waterslides.
Very quick ticket process, no queues we were in within 10 minutes arriving at 10am. Great range of facilities and food, we had a lovely day.
Good interesting time in Thermi
Fantastic experience! Everything was perfect! Excellent organization. Great food. To be done again!
All good Excellent valve for money Massive place Lots to do Very clean Well organised Very relaxing Beautiful
All very neat, organized. I really spent a pleasant day. Only flaw I expected some shows, some special music at the end of the day. But nothing changed from the morning except the absence of the sun.
Amazing place, so many things to try. My favourite was relaxing in the Mineral Pools, especially the Dead Sea Pool. The Thai Lunch was awesome. Too many good things to list. The place worked really smoothly, towels and robes to hire, and footwear to buy. Great that it is an outside and inside destination. Showers, changing rooms felt safe and secure. Even a place to store suitcases or big items. I thoroughly recommend.
A fantastic day out . Highly recommend visiting here . There is so much to do . Either lay on a sun lounger and relax . Or use the number of facilities on offer.
It was wonderful. The facilities, the saunas, the pools, the atmosphere, the food. Everything was simply charming. It's just a shame that we didn't manage to sign up for a treatment. You should offer the option to book via the app.
Everything went very smoothly. Easy to book and the vouchers arrived wuickly. My only concern is that I have noticed other sites, where prices seem cheaper.
The hot springs are amazing! My friends and I had an unforgettable day in all three areas, which we recommend to visit. Also, great place to celebrate the bachelorette party between relaxation, music and fun. Absolutely recommended!
We had a great time at Therme in Bucharest (spending 11 hours there in total). From the food and drink to the saunas and relaxing areas, we loved it! The only downside was the fact we didn't make it in time to reserve a treatment slot (even though we joined the queue by 10:30). I would advise to get there early if you really want a massage! We went on a Thursday in May half term and, although busy, wasn't overcrowded - didn't really have to queue or wait for anything. I would definitely recommend going on a week day if you can. All in all, we had a fantastic experience and would recommend to anyone.
Lots to do very cheap... would be nice if you were able to book massages or pedicure ... they were all booked up at 11 which was real shame
I loved every minute. It's a shame there were no beds so i had to keep moving. It was a cold day outside so couldn't sit outside. Otherwise it was fantastic, and easy to navigate. Any staff i spoke to were fabulous.
Everything was great, a beautiful experience to be repeated every day. Relaxation, fun and good food , nice people and dreamy atmosphere
The spas are beautiful, but I recommend going in the afternoon where there are fewer crowds. They are super organized, you can rent bathrobe, flip flops etc. Bathrooms changing rooms everything super. It was a wonderful experience, can't wait to go back,
Everything it was very refreshing and enjoyable. You could spend the whole day there without realising that you were there for so long.
I thought the experience was perfect from Start to finish ..whoever designed it and the whole concept got it 100 percent correct .. would love to go back there
Everything was great. The slides are unique for young and old. The pools are great. The saunas and steam rooms are great. I am satisfied.
This place is so under rated, there's nothing more we could have asked for, all the details are so thought through, it is everything & more! Having a badge that gives you access to alocker, foid, tea & coffee. Me & my sister visited from London, to see this place & it excelled our expectations. Even the price of the food & quality is 10/10! We spent the wholeday & enjoyed every moment :)
