5.00This tour was absolutely great. We were had Sebastian as our guide. He was extremely knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and engaging. He provided us with many interesting facts not only about the places we visited, but also interesting facts about Romania. The places that we visited on this tour were extremely interesting, authentic, and not overrun with tourists. The place we stopped for lunch was authentic and was one of the best meals we ate in Romania. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Romania. Hopefully you will be lucky to have Sebastian as your guide.

5.00We had the absolute pleasure of having Victor as our driver/tour guide on Sunday 8/9/24. He was so nice, polite and made us feel so comfortable with him. His wealth of information on the country and the pride he has is absolutely amazing. He has definitely inspired us to book another trip over in the near future. We highly recommend Victor and can't wait to use his services again. He is hands down the nicest person we met while away.
Excellent private tour
