Travel
Trains are inexpensive (tip - always travel first class). Trains are usually on time. If possible, take drinks and food with you and guard your things carefully - never leave them in the compartment!! On the IC trains there is usually a good restaurant car. Take a list of the intermediary stops so you get off at the right station as signposting is not that clear in Romania.
Coaches are very inexpensive, but they tend to be uncomfortable with no toilets etc. Good for short trips. They tend to stop every two hours.
Driving is on the right in Romania. You can hire a car quite cheaply and easily. Driving in Romania can be erratic and it is best to drive slowly as you never know when you are going to come across a horse and cart around the next bend!!! - especially at night. There is a zero alcohol tolerance.
