5.00I am a travel agent from Canada and was referred to Romania on the Map for my first visit to Romania. We couldn’t have been happier with our experience in Romania with Daniel as our guide. We booked a two day private tour as a couple, starting on our first day with the main sights in Bucharest before heading to Transylvania for a visit to Peles Castle and the charming city of Braşov. On our second day, we visited the medieval town of Sighisoara, Bran Castle and Viscri. Daniel was so knowledgeable about everything Romanian, not only about its history, but also about its culture, food, nature and other little known facts. He was helpful in recommending restaurants and hotels, and made sure we tasted the unique foods of Romania. He planned our days efficiently, so that we had Peles Castle almost to ourselves with no wait, and only a 20 min line up to get into Bran Castle. Daniel is an exceptional guide who is engaging, easy going and so enjoyable to be with. If you are visiting Romania, don’t hesitate to book Daniel at Romania on the Map for your tour. I know I will be recommending him to all my clients.
Authentic Transylvania with a superb guide

5.00This tour excelled in all respects. Daniel is a very knowledgeable and likeable guide, with very safe driving in a comfortable vehicle. We were so pleased to discover more of the history of Transylvania, and astonished at the authenticity of the Saxon villages. Daniel was very flexible, so that if we wanted to adjust the schedule a little, he was fine with that. We would thoroughly recommend this tour to anyone who is interested in the authentic Transylvania, rather than the legendary myths, as it is an amazing and quite unique place.

5.00Daniel Dumitru was the best guide that we had during our entire time in Europe. We felt that he was very personable and lightened every situation. The price of the tour, was completely worth every penny. If you are planning a trip to Romania, plan on a privet tour with Daniel.

5.00My husband and I had a wonderful experience with licensed guide Daniel Dumitru of Romania on the Map. He guided us in his comfortable car for 4 days touring in Bucharest, through the Saxon villages of Transylvania, to Sibiu, up the winding Transfagarasan Road in the Carpathian Mountains, followed by a return to Bucharest. My husband walks slowly with a cane and Daniel found places to visit that would allow him to see the important sights. We stayed at a comfortable country hotel and gasthouse in Transylvania and learned so much about the history of Romania and daily life from Daniel who speaks excellent English. Friends who visited Romania in Spring 2021 recommended Daniel's services to us and we were not disappointed. Highly recommend Daniel Dumitru as a guide who offers day trips and more throughout Romania.
