Fabulous day out in Romanian countryside and on the Danube

5.00We had a great day with Sergiu. We wanted to see the Danube in Romania and a day trip from Timisoara seemed the best option within our itinerary. We're so glad we did this - Sergiu was friendly and incredibly knowledgeable. He took us on a great road trip so we saw a lot of Romanian countryside, then a lovely boat trip on the Danube seeing the Romanian and Serbian sides. We also took a nice hike which ended in spectacular views of the gorge.
Once in lifetime

5.00Roberta took us on the tour and she was super cool. She knows the area well and explained the history. She was patient and we got along well. She even helped take photographs for us. We enjoyed our time and would recommend to anyone wanting to do this tour. On top of all that she had an awesome playlist for the cat ride. Thank you!

5.00Dear friend Sergiu, From the moment we met, you made us feel welcomed and at ease. Your friendly and approachable demeanour put us all at ease, and I felt like I was exploring Romania with a friend. You answered all of our questions with patience and enthusiasm, and your insights added so much depth and context to our understanding of the culture that it truly made the tour an unforgettable experience. Your recommendations for places to eat and things to do really enhanced my Romanian stay. In short, I made new friends in Romania, and our travel with you was an absolute delight. I never imagined that we would have travelled 1K km together, and I am so grateful for the time and effort you put into making it a memorable experience. Thank you again for everything! I wish you the very best of luck and hope you keep in touch, my friend.

5.00The tour was a great experience. Beautiful views, excellent lunch and Dan was extremely knowledgeable of the history of the places we visited. The trip was very pleasant due to Dan skills at making us feel comfortable and engaged. We did not have a dull moment! Even during the driving time between stops, Dan talked about local architecture, legends, and the history of the places. I highly recommend the tour!
