Our first private tour and we were delighted with the experience. The tour was fast-paced, which was fine for us - be ready at 8 am. We saw so much more than if we would have tried it on our own. We were lucky to have a friendly guide, Michael. He was knowledgeable and entertaining, with excellent driving skills. Our plan of visiting Romania during COVID-19 end well, and I hope to discover more in the next years.

Due to the current covid situation, I had a private tour that day, which was awesome. Mathias was a great guide, has a lot of general Romanian knowledge along with historical. This made for great conversation on the way to and from the castles. I highly recommend the tour and would gladly do it again with friends and family in the future.

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.

Autumn is a great time to visit Transylvania. One of the highlights for me was the mountain roads and seeing the bright autumn colours in the forests. The scenery is spectacular! Bogdan is an excellent tour guide who entertained me with his stories and knowledge of the castles. He is able to explain the history of the region and to answer any questions. Due to COVID, the castles were not crowded and the lines were short. The cold misty weather when I visited Bran Castle added to the spooky atmosphere.

We spent two amazing days in Dracula’s Land guided by Dan. On the first day we explored Bucegi Natural Park, a beauty of nature covered in snow. We spent the night in a comfy lodge with fire place and mulled wine. The second day we visited mountain villages and after lunch we asked Dan if he could bring us to a ski resort for 2h of skiing. So we arrived in Poina Braso and enjoyed skiing in the afternoon. Everything was beyond expectations and we highly recommend 4x4 Wild Tours. Dankeschon Dan fur alles!

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.
