    The trip was a good opportunity to see more of Romania thsn Bucharest. Emanuel, our guide, adapted the trip to ensure we saw all the attractions even though some of them were closed on dates we were supposed to visit. Emanuel's knowledge about the areas we travelled through and the places we visited added to the whole trip. I eould recommend the trip to everyone

    We booked two private day tours and it was the best money spent ever! So obliging, friendly, knowledgeable and brilliant with the children. Considering I don't like long drives I wasn't bored for a minute. We could set the pace and we never felt under pressure for time.
