    We had a great time on this tour visiting Bulgaria and Romania. It was well organised, the hotels were good and close to the city centers and the guides were very knowledgable and fun.

    · September 23rd, 2025
    Fabulous itinerary, although some stops we had limited time due to traffic & boarder crossings. We were very lucky to be a small group of 4 with excellent local guides. Make sure you confirm 'optional' tours with your guide before you set out on the days adventures. September was the perfect month to travel but be prepared for long days on the road. Hotels were all very comfortable except for Tirana (small & no AC)
