I cannot recommend this tour enough! Me and my partner had Sergiu as our guide and he was amazing! We had lots of interesting conversations on the way to the villages of Banat and answered any questions we had! We hiked up the mountains to the village and had an amazing traditional Romanian lunch! The tour was very informative and educational, also very impressive at how self sufficient these villages were! When I’m back in Romania I will definitely book another tour if not the same one!
Beautiful views, great hike, wonderful tour

We had a really wonderful hiking tour with our guide Sergiu to a remote village in the mountains. The process worked smoothly - starting with the pickup in Timișoara, the hike and the visit to the host family in the village, and ending with the transfer back to the pickup point. Our guide was extremely informed and made the tour very enjoyable. We learned so much about the country, the region and the history! The views in the mountains were so beautiful, a perfect location to take great pictures. Our host was very friendly and Sergiu translated everything for us. We had a great lunch there and after this we hiked back. I really recommend this tour!
