The whole trip was fantastic! I was lucky enough to have my tour guide Charlie to myself and was able to ask him all sorts of questions about life in Romania, the places I had explored on my own as well as about the places we went and saw. We enjoyed a nice little lunch in Sighisoara and some rhubarb cake in Viscri. Honestly, it felt like hanging out with a really knowledgeable old friend! Highly recommend- it was the highlight of my trip to Romania!

The tour was excellent. We even made a couple of additional stops beyond what was listed in the schedule. Dan was a wonderful guide and was clearly interested in providing a great experience.

The guide was excellent with real y good English, friendly and well-based cultural comments. The itinerary was timely well fitted (without hurries nor boring) and the route Shigsoara, Vicri etc marvellous. Shigsoara was expectativas to be excellent due to it s international recognition, but Vicri and it s fortress well-built and preserved by locals with los economic resources for centuries is impressive.
