This trip is probably the best one you can get in Tulcea. Our guide was a real expert on the matter, being a biologist, which was a great suprise! He shared his vast knowledge on the Delta ecosystem, while at the same time keeping it interesting and light. Where other trips blasted through canals on speedboats, disturbing the wildlife and other tourists, he was always mindfull of the place, us and the animals. You won’t regret it!

Best day in the delta ever! Alex was our tour guide- he was a very knowledgeable and skilled guide. He was a great driver and teacher too. I would do this tour again and again and will definitely recommend it!

Thank you Jakub for your kind words. I hope more travelers will realize in the future the value of a slow tour.

The tour is fantastic! The guide very professional and friendly. The nature wonderful and the very comfortable motorboat.

A really full day but gave us a great overall feel for the delta. Don't think a half day tour would be adequate. Our guide was excellent, knowledgeable and stopped often to point out wildlife.The boat only took 10 passengers which we thought was really good. So glad we chose this tour..

What a fantastic place to visit. And although you will not see every kind of wildlife that's advertised you do get to see quite a lot of bird life. The noise of the frogs in mating season was so loud. And if you didn't see it all this time, come back and do it again.

We really enjoyed the experience of visiting the Letea Forest and going through a good part of the Danube Delta. Enjoy the sighting of different species of birds that inhabit it. We also had a guide (Florín), who was an ornithologist and has been explaining everything in detail, so we were very lucky.

Tout l organisation l accueil le guide florin la longue promenade en bateau malgré une heure de pluie...quel souvenir...la baignade pour certains d entre nous sur un lac...le seul petit bémol est le repas végétarien il est au même prix qu un repas classique pour des tomates un peu de fromage et des frites à améliorer

Ein sehr schönes Erlebnis im offen Boot. Delta ist weit schöner und größer als wir uns das vorgestellt haben. Kompetenter und freundlicher Guide. Mittagessen war reichlich und sehr gut.
Moises_F, May 2024
Recomendado para los amantes de la naturaleza, eso sí, si el día es opaco y fresco, vaya bien abrigado porque el bote es abierto. El almuerzo fue bueno y abundante, pero lo programan muy lejos y el regreso toma dos horas y media. Por lo demás, todo muy bien.

Increíble experiencia! Muy recomendable, disfrutamos mucho y aprendimos bastante sobre el entorno de Rumanía. Gracias a nuestro excelente guía Florín pudimos disfrutar con libertad de la excursión

Fue una excursión de casi 10 horas. Tuvimos la suerte de avistar un enorme grupo de pelícanos y cormoranes que estaban pescando. La visita al parque de Letea para ver los caballos también estuvo muy bien. El menú que nos ofrecieron para reponer fuerzas fue la guinda del pastel.
Christian_H, May 2023
Ganz toller Ausflug! Sehr kompetenter Guide. Sehr gutes lokales (Fisch-)Mittagessen!
Dia "Safari" in den Wald war eine etwas lange Fahrt ohne Ereignisse. Einen Besichtigungspunkt hätte gereicht.
Daniela_L, Aug 2022
Sehr gute Führung mit einem Biologen. Toller Service und vor allem eine traumhaft schöne Landschaft!

Bellissimo giro in barca da 10 persone. Fermate soventi per ammirare la fauna. 9 ore di bellezza nel Delta.
JudithReu, Aug 2019
Es war eine wahnsinnig schöne Erfahrung das Donaudelta zu erleben. Bei strahlendem Sonnenschein und heißen Temperaturen waren die mitunter 60 km/h schnellen Fahrten auf dem Wasser einfach nur genial!
Unser netter Guide zeigte uns die verschiedenen Vögel im Delta, das Facettenreiche Delta und erzählte uns über die Dörfer und Fischerhäuser im Delta. Schließlich sahen wir im Letea Forest Wildpferde und aßen von den üppigen und leckeren Portionen des angebotenen Mittagessens!
Nach einer längeren Pause ging es dann auf den Rückweg.
Ich bin absolut begeistert von dieser Tour und werde sie in wundervoller Erinnerung behalten!
Gegen potentiellen Regen sollte man sich denke ich gut rüsten.

Heel mooie trip! Voornamelijk voor vogelliefhebbers, maar ook voor personen die even tot rust willen komen omgeven door de natuur. Het is eens iets anders dan een wandeling in het bos, maar even groen.
