Our first trip to Romania

5.00It was our first time to Romania. Alex was excellent representative of this beautiful country. He’s very knowledgeable about all aspects of Romania’s life, economy, political situation, history, medical system, school, agricolture, various industries. He truly enjoyed explaining about his country and he definitely had a good audience. Alex is an excellent guide for this type of tours. When we’ll go back home we will remember the lessons learned from Alex, and we now know things about Romania that we didn’t know before our trip.
