    I cannot recommend this tour highly enough. It was well paced, full of surprises, and the historical buildings were amazing. My guide Cornell had a wide knowledge of history, not only of the sights, but also of Romania which was so interesting. He was punctual, a safe, careful driver and had a good sense of humour. Thanks Cornell, you made my tour truly memorable. The hotels were all of a similar standard and were clean, comfortable and the staff were very helpful.
