Top Tulcea Day Trips

Enjoy a relaxed day in nature on this small-group guided tour of the Danube Delta. After making an early start you'll be taken to some of the most beautiful, biologically significant areas of the delta. Visit local villages and past picturesque lakes on the way to the Letea Forest, Europe's northernmost subtropical forest. Look out for wild horses from your safari car.

This itinerary promises you not only stunning landscapes, but also an introduction to the wonderful world of deltaic fauna and flora. We arrive in a wonderful land exploring Șontea Veche channel and Lake Băclănești. We then follow Lake Fortuna and venture onto Șontea Lată channel, offering you a glimpse into the fascinating lives of aquatic animals. Diverse flora enriches the landscape, creating a vibrant picture. We explore the Olguța channel, and those looking for a gastronomic experience can opt for a meal in Mila 23, an authentic fishing village. Here, you can taste traditional cuisine and enjoy the hospitality of the locals, or you can visit the Lotca Museum, opened in memory of Ivan Patzaichin (great romanian kayaker).

Discover the Danube River Delta and the beautiful Letea Forest on this full-day private boat tour. Cruise down the river in an open boat to enjoy unobstructed views of the flora and fauna in the area as you make your way down to the village of Letea. Here you can find wild horses roaming the subtropical forests and enjoy a traditional seafood lunch at a local household—optional.

When in Romania, make sure to pay a visit to Mila23 village in the Danube Delta. This isolated village is difficult to get to on your own, so best to book a boat, captain, and village guide. Enjoy your time cruising along the water, and then stretch your legs and learn about the history of Mila23 village from your driver/guide.

See where the Danube River meets the Black Sea as you embark on a full-day tour from Tulcea. Board your private vessel, sail through channels, and pass several villages along the way. Stop in Mila 23 for a short break, explore the city of Sulina on the shores of the sea, and see where the Danube creates a micro-delta before heading back to Tulcea.
