Fantastic day out with an exceptional guide. - This was a great day out to some stunning places. Andrei was great - a really informative, friendly and entertaining guide. We stopped at a nice restaurant for lunch and had plenty of time in both Biertan and Sighisoara. Both towns are very memorable and helped to make our Romanian holiday a great one. Can definitely recommend this company and the itinerary they offer.

RECOMMENDED TOUR! - We were lucky enough to be the only participants since it was low season and travel was therefore done by car. Radu, the guide, speaks fluent English and was very attentive to our needs. This itinerary allowed us to visit a less touristy but very fascinating Transylvania. The stretches of road traveled by car to reach the various stages of the trip are also enchanting.

Wonderful tour through the history of Transylvania - A fantastic day trip through the history of Transylvania that I can recommend to anyone who is interested in history and culture. Gheorghe is a very well-read and warm-hearted tour guide who enriches the tour with his warm manner. He also answers every question and is always open to the wishes of the travelers. You can't imagine a better tour guide :)

Amazing Day - We were picked up from our hotel by our guide Andrei and we spent the day in Biertan and Sighisoara. Andrei had a great sense of humour and was so knowledgeable about the area and local history. He answered all our questions and was just a really nice guy. I would definitely recommend this tour. Thanks Andrei we had a great time.

A fairy tale experience - Aurelian is a knowledgeable yet laid-back, humorous guide. He gave us insight into the history of the area but also really went the extra mile in showing us some extra sights. He is also a safe driver :) It was such a memorable and lovely day, partly due to our luck in being paired with Aurelian. As for Sighisoara and Biertan themselves, it was absolutely inspiring. It felt like going back in time, truly a fairy tale experience. Worth it!

Nice trip with good stopping points - The day started with a long road drive to Sighisoara. Spent a few hours wandering the place. Then stopped for lunch at Biertan followed by a tour of the fortified church. A long day but worth it. My only comment would be that it would have been nice to stop somewhere during the drive to sighisoara for a coffee/comfort break. Apart from that the two sites are well preserved, clean, and not too many tourist traps. Would definitely recommend Our guide was very knowledgeable and explained things in a lot of detail.
