    · April 22nd, 2025
    My wife and I enjoyed the tour very much. Traian was a great guide, knowledgeable, friendly and helpful; it was especially appreciated that he gave us some space and free time to explore and experience places by ourselves. Highlights for us were: the home cooked lunch in Viscri and the traditional Romanian dinner in Voronet; Bran Castle; the drive through Bicaz gorge; the city of Brasov; and the painted monasteries of Bucovina. However, there were some challenges and so things you might consider looking at: the Europa Royale Hotel is opposite The Urbanlist venue which had very loud music playing until 2am the nights we were there which greatly disturbed our sleep; the general area around the hotel was frequented by strange looking men that made the area feel unsafe; we would have liked to stay 2 nights in Brasov to see more of the city; and there was some communication problem with our transfer to the airport on our last day which lead to a stressful situation for us.

    Romania is a beautiful country. We saw so many places and I enjoyed all the places we stayed. Marcel, our tour guide, was very diligent about finding out what we were most excited to see. As long as we all were agreeable, he was flexible to our wants and needs. There were four of us in the group and two of us were solo travelers. All of our wants and needs aligned well and I think everyone enjoyed the tour. We saw 4 bears, and lots of stray dogs that we stopped for and fed (Romanians take care of their strays). We had a great afternoon with a pottery maker— quite talented. We saw painted monasteries, walled forts, castles and churches. Our group as a whole asked Marcel to bypass some of the monasteries in favor of reaching the cities that we were overnighting at and this gave us some more leisurely time to wander the cities.we ate some great Romanian food. This was a great tour with a flexible guide who is diligent, responsible and fluent in English. I am really glad that I went.

    Asked on April 3rd, 2025

    Could you explain how this pricing works please? And how much you expect me to pay as a solo traveller if I book this tour?

    Price / Availability
    Single supplement
    • RolandiaOperatorWritten April 2025

      The tour price can vary depending on the departure date. For example, the lower price applies to our guaranteed departure on Friday, which is also the most popular date. Since we already have confirmed bookings for that day, we're able to offer a more competitive rate. The higher price includes the single supplement, which covers the cost of having a private room throughout the tour.

      TravelerWritten April 2025

      So how much would the tour leaving Bucharest on Friday 02 May cost me? I am a single traveller.

    • RolandiaOperatorWritten April 2025

      Unfortunately, we've just had a cancellation for the Best of Romania tour departing on May 2, so it will no longer be running. The final price for that tour in a single room was €2341. However, we do have another great option: the Classic Romania – 8 Days tour, which departs on May 1 from Bucharest. The price for a single traveler is €2023.

    On the 10 day Best of Romania tour i was wondering how many km is the longest drive we will encounter? I am looking at the April 10th departure....very exciting! Does this tour allow a drive on the beautiful Transfagarasan Mountain Road? I read that it was not open until June. I am also Celiac and was wondering if there are gluten free food options available.

    Tour Details
    • RolandiaOperatorWritten March 2025

      Due to snow, the Transfagarasan road will remain closed until June. The longest day of the tour will cover approximately 300 km, as we travel from Transylvania (Cluj) to the Bucovina area (Voronet) and cross the Carpathians. This drive will take around 5 hours and promises spectacular scenery. We do offer gluten-free options.

      Transfer: No matter when you arrive in Bucharest, your transfer to the hotel is included. Whether you arrive a day early or at any hour, we'll ensure you're picked up. Extra Night Accommodation: For an extra night, we have arrangements at Concorde Old Bucharest, with a rate of 130 EUR per night (breakfast included). Currently, we have one booking from a couple.

      For the May 9, 2025 departure, we currently have no other bookings, so as of now it would just be you. The maximum group size for this tour is six people, keeping it very personalized and intimate. We typically welcome travelers of various ages and backgrounds, but given the small group size, it often attracts those who appreciate a more immersive and relaxed experience. Rooms are provided on a private basis. If you're traveling alone, a single supplement would apply.

    Asked on December 16th, 2024

    Transfagarasan Highway is open only between June and November. Why then does it show on the itinerary for Best of Romania?

    Tour Details
    • RolandiaOperatorWritten December 2024

      The Transfăgărășan Highway typically opens between late June and November, but this can vary from year to year depending on weather and maintenance work. There's a possibility it may open earlier next year due to improvements made this season. If it remains closed during your visit, we will use an alternative route through the Olt Valley, ensuring you won't miss out on the scenic beauty of the region. We include the Transfăgărășan in the itinerary because it's such an iconic highlight, and we make every effort to use it whenever possible.
