Great company to deal with. Our planning and booking was with Bogdan and all replies were quick and informative. We decided on a 2 day tour. Collection from airport late then straight to hotel Bucharest, early collection the next day with our guide Nick, we had a quick tour around the city and then onto mountains and Brasov. Overnight stay in Brasov. We requested a change to the next day itinery which was met so we could say we went off the beaten toursit path. Nick was very informative and enaging and always met our needs and understood our requirements from the trip. Before Nick left us in Bucharest back at the hotel he arranged a booking for us at the Palace of the Parliament so we knew which tour we were going on. In the price of the trip we also had a early collection from the hotel back to the airport even though our tour ended 2 days before. No stress, everything organised and everthing worked our great.

Honestly the only way to really see Transylvania and the Carpathian mountains. Dan the guide is very knowledgable about the area and culture of the people. He is an excellent safe driver and you always feel safe with him driving. He knows multiple routes across the mountains depending on the weather and comfort level of his clients. If you just want to drive down dirt roads through the National Parks or do some more extreme off roand campng and fishing he can cater for your personal needs. Unlike other trips to the area Dan can customize the trip to your needs. Its definitly the only way to see the area.

I booked this within 2 hours of the start of the tour on my last day in Belgrade and it was absolutely worth it. My guide was exceptionally knowledgeable and thorough. He even took me to the airport at the end so that I could catch my flight. You know it was a good tour when you feel like you’re leaving the city too soon.
