Heather_F, Jun 2026

Excellent value tour

A lovely tour with the friendly and knowledgeable Alin. He took us to the Bear Sanctuary and then to Bran Castle. He knew lots about both places. On the way there and back he pointed out other places of interest and stopped several times so we could take photos. He was friendly and chatty and I would have no hesitation in recommending him. Thank you Alin.

Take me back!

Even before the tour began this company was amazingly helpful. We have found some tours to be too rushed but this not only introduced you some of the great sites of the world but also allowed breaks to really enjoy and take in what you were seeing. What can I say about Traian? He was amazing making sure all our experiences were perfect. He was the master tour guide!

Do it!

This was awesome! About a 45 minute drive to the spot where you get to sit in a little hut with one way windows and sit in beautiful nature and wait and watch for bears. We were lucky and saw about 5 that day. The guide was so knowledgeable and shared so much enthusiasm and love for these beautiful animals!

Very good tour, you need...

Very good tour, you need to buy Peles castle tour tickets before the date of your tour to secure a visit inside. The guide Alin was very knowledgeable and friendly he made every effort to make sure there was enough time at each place without rushing Toilets at the castles were annoying as there were always such long queues but that is not the tour operators fault, we had great weather which really helped especially when visiting the garden at the last castle which was also an extra charge.

Fun tour

Radu was great. Instructions to meet were perfect too, the group in total was 5 people + guide. We started off with a short coffee break as we strolled the streets of old town and learned the history of Brasov. Radu even gave suggestions for restaurants and how to get to other locations for views.

Efficient and enjoyable transylvania highlands tour

The tour was a great way to get a well-rounded overview of Transylvania’s top attractions in a single day. The organizer went above and beyond by offering hotel pickup instead of the standard meeting point, which was a very nice and convenient touch. Transportation was comfortable, with a well-maintained Ford Transit that made the journey pleasant. The itinerary was thoughtfully planned and efficiently organized, allowing us to see a lot without feeling rushed. We also appreciated the assistance with securing tickets for the attractions, which made the experience smooth and hassle-free. The combination of the bear sanctuary, Râșnov Fortress, and Bran Castle provided a perfect mix of nature and history. Everything ran on time and felt professionally managed throughout the day. The only improvement I would suggest is allowing a bit more free time at Bran Castle to explore at a more relaxed pace.

A lovely scape into medieval Romania

We had a fantastic day exploring several beautiful medieval Saxon villages, and the whole experience was absolutely delightful. The weather was perfect, the scenery was stunning, and our guide, Charlie, made everything even better with his great sense of humor and his clear, engaging explanations. We had a wonderful traditional lunch in Viscri — the food was incredibly delicious — and the pace of the tour was relaxed and comfortable. With only two couples in the group, we had plenty of time to explore each place, enjoy the atmosphere, and even sit down for a coffee without any rush. It was a truly lovely day, and we left feeling enchanted by the region. We highly recommend this tour and our guide, Charlie.

Last month my friend and...

Last month my friend and I took a private tour, and we had a wonderful experience. Our guide was fantastic—knowledgeable, friendly, and eager to share more about Romania as we traveled between sites. The extra information he provided along the way made the journey even more engaging and helped us better appreciate the country’s rich history and culture. The destinations themselves were absolutely beautiful, each offering something unique and memorable. Overall, the tour exceeded our expectations, and we would highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area.

Trip to Bran Castle with time for photography

Bianca is an excellent guide. She was on time, very polite and engaging. I was the only person in the tour and I am a photographer… So, she was able to take time to help me get some great photos and take extra time when needed. Extremely knowledgeable and we had great conversation about the historical past and current events. For me this was about immersive as a tour gets. Of course the locations were very beautiful. I would definitely hire this company again and ask for Bianca as my guide. Thank you

Great tour!

First of all, Florin was a fantastic guide with fluency in english and spanish with interesting facts about the area and the castles! the tour itself was quite great, the only thing I wished for was a little more time in both castles, to try to see it in not such a hush and to see the little souvenir shops around them. aside from that, 100% recommended

Day Hike in Carpathian Mountains for all levels in five areas

Paivikki_A, Oct 2025

Great hiking!

Our original plan was to go to Fagaras mountains but due to the unexpected snowfall the road was closed and we needed to change our plans. Piatra Craiului offered a nice option to hike on a different type of mountain. Unfortunately the weather was not on our side, the fog hided the mountains and we couldn’t do the whole trail. The lunch break at the hut was anyway really nice. And on the way back we hiked through a very impressive gorge! In spite of the weather circumstances our guide Ovidiu did his best and the hiking was a great experience! He was a reliable, nice and professional guide! Also the service from the tour operator in general was friendly and flexible, and they did their best to serve the customer.
