Reviews of Small Group tours to Romania
- 8 Day Journey exploring Central and Eastern Europe - from Vienna to Bucharest - Small Group Tour
Good thought out tour. Visited a lot of places with local guides, the accommodations were good and close to the main attractions. Budapest is stunning! We reccommend the tour!
- Classic Romania Tour (small group)
The tour is great and covers many key things to see in Romania. The small tour group number allows for a personal experience. Our tour guide Val was very knowledgeable, well connected, resourceful and entertaining. I would recommend this tour for a diverse experience in what Romania has to offer.
If you're craving an outdoor adventure, this is the perfect trip with fantastic hikes and spectacular scenery over the Carpathian Mountains. For three days, Alex was our guide, and he had a lot of outdoor experience, knowing everything about each place we visited.

What our customers ask about Romania Small Group Tours
What is the typical group size for small group tours in Romania?
Small group tours in Romania keep numbers between 4-8 travelers which allows for easier navigation through historic sites like Bran Castle and the medieval streets of Sighisoara Citadel. The limited size means guides can give more attention to each traveler and groups can move efficiently between locations. A TourRadar traveler confirms: "We were a small group of 6 which was perfect. This tour is a must-do when visiting Romania. We got to see so many incredible places created lots of great memories and made new friends."
What are the accommodation options for small group tours in Romania?
Accommodations on small group tours range from select 3-star hotels to local guesthouses. You'll find places like Casa Timar in Brasov or the family-run Ramona House in Sibiel village. The historic Casa Wagner welcomes guests in Sighisoara while Hotel Moxa serves as a central base in Bucharest. These properties often have 10-15 rooms making them ideal for smaller groups but too limited for larger tours.
What unique experiences are possible with small group tours in Romania?
The small group format opens doors to experiences like home-cooked meals with families in Sibiel meeting craftspeople in their Bucovina workshops and private tastings at family vineyards. Groups can get detailed tours of UNESCO sites such as the painted monasteries of Voronet and Moldovita. A TourRadar traveler notes: "With our small group we had amazing access to local artisans and could really interact with people in the villages we visited."
How much interaction is there with local communities on small group tours?
Small groups regularly connect with Romanian communities through village visits home stays and shared meals. Activities include visiting Saxon homes in Viscri learning traditional egg painting in Bucovina and dining with local families. A TourRadar traveler reports: "Being in a small group allowed us to have dinner with a family in their home in Sibiel village - it was the highlight of our trip getting to know real Romanian hospitality."
What is the price difference between small and large group tours in Romania?
Small group tours typically cost 15-25% more than large group options but provide closer guidance focused attention and access to intimate settings. A 3-day small group tour through Transylvania averages 237 USD per day. This price includes boutique lodging and local experiences that larger groups cannot access due to size limitations.
What is the best time of year for small group tours in Romania?
While tours run throughout the year May through October provides reliable weather for exploring. Peak season falls during summer months (June-August) with warmest temperatures. Spring and autumn offer fewer tourists and seasonal colors. A TourRadar traveler notes: "We went in September and had perfect weather plus fall colors in the Carpathian Mountains."
