Sunrise or Sunset — you choose the vibe

🌅 Sunrise Tour (09:00) — The morning is yours and the Transfăgărășan’s

You start early, when the canyon is all yours: small groups, crisp mountain air, morning light on the waterfalls in Făgăraș Mountains. And the most important advantage of the Sunrise tour: it leaves you time to visit the famous Transfăgărășan and enjoy the bears that populate it. Romania’s most spectacular road is 40 minutes from the canyon — a complete day of outdoor adventure in Transylvania, with everything you’ve dreamed of.

🌇 Sunset Tour (14:00) — Relaxed, straight from Sibiu’s center into the canyon

No need to wake up at dawn. The Sunset tour is perfect if you want a great coffee in charming Sibiu’s center in the morning — or if you’re coming from far away and want to arrive without rushing. Park, gear up, enter the canyon. In the evening you’re free for dinner in Sibiu or a sunset drive on the Transfăgărășan.
