Trip date: September 2024 
Roberta Justine· September 27th, 2024All aspects of the trip were so superior, it's hard to know what to put first, The route offered varied scenery and an opportunity to experience the area in a deeper way that is not possible from a vehicle on main roads. The daily rides were hard enough to be satisfying but not exhausting. The guide was outstanding in tending to everyone's specific needs and was extremely knowledgeable about the history past and present. The side trips were well chosen. The lodging was varied but always good. And the food at the dinners offered a fine sample of classic dishes.Show moreTrip date: September 2024- ADes· May 29th, 2023Visiting Bran and Peles Castles and the watermillShow moreTrip date: May 2023Review collected by Explore!

Razvan is an excellent guide. He made the cycling fun and gave us lots of interesting facts about the history and nature of this beautiful country. The cycling was great. We visited some really beautiful and fascinating places. The scenery was wonderful with sun, blue skies and snow on the mountains. I also enjoyed the abundance of bird life.
