City exploration

Michelle_V, Jun 2025
Our guide was great, very informative and very flexible. We had a lovely lunch and we got to see lots of the city. We also went to a local food market which was great as it was off the beaten track and where the locals shops

Response from Host, Jun 2025

Dear Traveler, Thank you so much for your lovely review! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed exploring the city with your guide and appreciated both the flexibility and the insights shared along the way. It’s wonderful that you got to enjoy a delicious traditional lunch and visit a local market—those hidden, everyday places where locals shop are often the most authentic and memorable stops. We hope to see you again for more discoveries and flavors around Romania! Warm regards, Crafted Tours Romania

Toni was a great host, informed us about the history of Romania, Cold War and communism. Included history of old town. Food was great could not eat all of it.
