Fantastic day around Romania! - Nikolas picked us up outside our apartment in central Bucharest bang on time. Car was very well kept and had water + chargers inside. Nikolas was extremely knowledgeable about the history of Romania and very accommodating about any small changes to the schedule e.g. stopping to grab a bite of food. He first took us to the bear sanctuary before Bran castle and then Braşov. All were excellent fun. He was full of recommendations at each and also gave us some superb tips for when we returned to Bucharest. Highly recommend.

Excellent tour guide! We had so much fun! - My mother and I signed up for this tour on our last days in Romania with only a day’s notice, which Nicolas and Dan graciously accommodated. It was a bit rainy so there were very few people at Bran Castle, letting us take our time and get the most out of Dan’s tour. After that, we went to Brasov and Dan took us through the Black Church and a history museum, where Dan’s explanations were invaluable in understanding the artifacts and history. He was patient as we wandered through the markets and gift shops, even going out of his way to take us to a Starbucks so my mother could look for a souvenir mug. Dan took us to a traditional Romanian restaurant that we never would have found on our own, which had delicious food. I really appreciated how relaxed and easygoing Dan was as a tour guide. We chose not to see the bear sanctuary due to time. Overall, this was an excellent experience and I would recommend it to anyone! Thank you for giving us one last adventure in Romania!
