Travelling to Romania and Oradea
Romania has a very good public transport system and national as well as international railway service that has comfortable sleeping coaches that travel to most cities in Eastern Europe with connections to most major European cities.
Flights are available from most European destinations to Bucharest, the capital city of Romania. From Bucharest students may take a flight or train to Oradea. Flight duration is usually 1hr20min and the entire train journey will take around 12hrs. Although the train trip allows the newcomer to absorb the beautiful scenery of Romania, we reccommend the flight on the first trip. It's more convenient and if you don't speak Romanian then the train can get a little confusing.

Taxis are always available 24hrs and very safe. They are also extremely cheap and most destinations within the city can be reached for less than a dollar.
