  Mihai was my tour guide for a day of hiking to 2 peaks (8 hours) - Omu and Caraiman... To say that I had fantastic time doesn't really describe it fully. Mihai organised everything perfectly-the route, the introduction to the local wild life and flora, local history, explanation of details of hiking and just little chit chats... he was punctual and also flexible at the same time adding an element to the route after discussing with me. Mihai's advanced knowledge of English made our communication easy flowing. Finally, he's taken a few great pics (of me ☺️), so all above left me a very happy customer. I strongly recommend Mihai and this route for a day hike.

  This may not have been the exact tour we took but it was pretty close. This was the first of three tour that my wife and I took during our honeymoon/anniversary in Brasov. We were primarily led by Tudor, who was assisted by Mihai. Mihai was the principal "outdoors" guide and had extensive experience with wilderness adventure and photography. This was primarily leisure for us though. Tudor stopped briefly at the base of Bran Castle on the way to the mountain villages for us to take pictures. On the drive, he explained the history of the Saxon villages and their unique architecture. Once in the mountains, he deferred to Mihai, but it was clear that Tudor was working hard to learn and already had a great deal to contribute. They got us into a bat cave filled with bats and then led us up a lengthy walk into the hills/mountains. The views were breath taking, though honestly, we enjoyed spending time with two proud, intelligent, and passionate Romanians of different generations. They taught us a great deal about their culture and history and were great companions for the day. The walk was a bit long but we were also tired from several days of travel. It wasn't rugged nor particularly grueling, though it is a few miles and much of it was uphill. They were very accommodating as we fatigued and made a great day out of it. We ended with an authentic lunch at a private restaurant that overlooked the mountains. It was a truly once in a lifetime experience. I'd recommend this tour for anyone hoping to see the Romanian countryside but not looking for a truly wilderness experience of hiking, biking, or wildlife stalking. Bring water, decent shoes, a hat, and a good camera and you'll have a day you'll remember forever.

  One memorable experience! We were lucky from the beginning and the weather really played in our favor as we had such a lovely day: no wind, only clear skies and 100% visibility. It was a completely exhilarating day where you can easily spend hours taking in the breeze, walking the trails, taking photos, and getting a nice picnic. One highlight was visiting a sheepfold, and being able to see where the real cheese is made! The views are simply breathtaking and the walking trails are great, all topped off by being able to identify the wildlife tracks in the snow. Also there were many interesting flowers and plants to observe. The views in all directions are breathtaking & extraordinary. There are numerous pathways to explore each leading to a great photo opportunity. Walking around the mountain will give you amazing views on mountains or landscapes as: Piatra Craiului, Bucegi , Iezer - Papusa, Poiana Marului etc We had a wonderful time with incredible and skillful guides: always positive, professional with huge respect of mountain etiquette and great nature lovers. These guys encourage the sustainable travel and promotes the responsible tourism…how not to love them ?! From my point of view , this trip can be quite a strenuous climb for beginners and novices in some places. It is not a technical or dangerous hike, but is fairly intense as it takes about 7 to 8 hours. You should have proper equipment if you want to fully enjoy the experience. Definitely wear comfortable clothes and sturdy shoes. Also remember to take plenty of drinks and snacks ( there are no bins, so carry a bag with you to dispose the refuse ). As a suggestion: don’t forget to have your sun protection with you and re-apply from time to time, mountain tan is the best when is safe….and you are not on the red side of the wheel color :) Another advice: this area is also known for bears, so do not go alone….and fallow the guides!
