I had a great private tour with Manu. :) At the welcome, I was surprised with Romanian chocolate (very nice), and afterwards, we had a very exciting walk through Cluj. Manu told me a lot and answered even more of my questions. I would book Manu again in a heartbeat.

Thank You for extremally interesting Tour in Cluj-Napoca. Fantastic for people which now history and for people which doesn't now (and doesn't like !) history. Thank You very much indeed. We recommend every one. Świetna przewodniczka z dużym darem "gawędy" o historii,ale tez teraźniejszości. Umiejętność obiektywnej narracji plus dobra znajomość miejscowych "poloniców"
