5.00We recently visited Romania and were in search of a travel agency or tour guide to assist us with planning and organizing our trip. That's when we reached out to Florin at Sibiu Tour Guide. We received a prompt response, and communication through WhatsApp and email was effortless. Florin exhibited remarkable flexibility, tailoring a tour to our specific interests based on his extensive experience. During our visit, we explored the mountains near Sibiu and ventured to some of Transylvania's renowned landmarks, including Corvin Castle, Sibiu, and a scenic road trip along the Transfagarasan route. Florin's service exceeded our expectations, and we were particularly impressed by his professionalism, knowledge, and evident passion for his work. We wholeheartedly recommend his services

5.00Put on your hiking boots, pack some water and sandwiches and you are good to go. We had a great time hiking with Florin in Făgăraș Mountains to Bâlea lake. There was no shortage of stunning views and (fun) facts. Highly recommended.
