100% Recommend!!!
Andrei was an incredible tour guide. Very informative on the country/region.
Tour date was on October 8, but due to heavy snowfall Andrei offered to move it to the next day.
It was the first heavy snowfall of the year and unusually early, so the road was closed to cars, meaning we had the road to ourselves. We had to walk the last 2-3km with our bikes because the snow was too deep. Andrei offered to stay with the bikes whilst I go up to the lake. However, we both persisted despite the cold and low visibility conditions. A well-deserved meal and hot drink was consumed once at the lake.
The downhill trip was much easier and the clouds had started to clear up, offering incredible views!
Andrei was also able to drop me off at the bus station on the way back.
Many thanks Andrei. An incredible experience and I hope to come back one day.

Must do!! Incredible!
Such an incredible experience! Way better experience than if we would have journeyed ourselves. We enjoyed the road, a short hike, the monastery, and got tons of incredible pictures! It was also great to just relax with my wife while our guide navigated the traffic.

Tour to Transfagarasan road
The trip on Transfagarasan road to the glacial lake was absolutely amazing! Our tour guide Viorel was great, very friendly, knowledgeable and one of a kind driver. He did everything to make our day the most enjoyable and memorable. We would highly recommend Viorel and this tour.
