Take the M2 metro in direction of ''Berceni''. Get off at ''Eroi Revolutiei'' and look for the ''City Mall'', walk towards it and you will see that the road forks. Take the right fork, the road will be called ''Giurgiului''. Just after the city mall, there's a tram ticket office. Get a ticket (1.3 Lei as of October 2009), and walk a bit more on the road to get to the tram stop. It's right in the middle of the road. Take tram #7 or #25 to the last stop. Then walk down the road for 5 minutes and you will reach a service station on the right hand. You can ask people here or stop cars passing on the main road.
There's a train from ''Gara de Nord'' to [[Giurgiu]] (leaving at 20:00 and 12:00, August 2010), for the equivalent of about 7 euro.
