What people love about Romania Tours from Bucharest
- Discover Transylvania from Airport Bucharest
Adrian was excellent. He was considerate & very patient with us older women . He is very knowledgeable & explains well. We were also Blessed with great weather. Adrian is a Romanian your country and any mother would be proud of. Thank you.
This was the best 7 day holiday, me and my husband ever experienced. Bogdan (owner of transylvania discovery tours) is the best professional, knowledgeable tour guide you can get, with extra fun facts and surprises. From the very beginning you can see and feel his love and passion for Romania. It penetrates straight to your heart, with the very well planned itinerary, to get you to see as many wonderful and best places as possible, which was explained to us everyday the day before, which also can be tailor made at your own pace. Yes, this tour includes quite a lot of travelling (i had to take travelling pills as i suffer from motion sickness ), but it was very relaxing with all the breath taking postcard scenery. We felt we had VIP treatment, felt extremely safe, both being in a foreign country and with his excellent driving. Bogdan checked everything was perfect, in every room we lodged, that we had enough food and drink, local liqueur and wine , privacy and smoking area. The local hosts are super, it was like saying goodbye to your mum every time. Transylvania discovery tours 's slogan is 'come as a guest and leave as a friend', i must say that's definitely the absolute truth!! Thank you once again Bogdan , definitely will see you again next year with all our family.
Private Romania UNESCO 7-Day Tour
Transylvania is a very beautiful area with lovely mountains, forests and towns. Our guide was very knowledgeable and helpful and we enjoyed his company. The historical fortified churches are lovely and their history is quite interesting. Three out of four of our hotels were excellent and all of them were clean. Romanians are friendly and eager to please. A very lovely trip..
