Unique ‘View’ of Brasov - This was an informative overview of Brasov’s history from a local point of view. Great introduction from outside the wall, and plenty of time to see the highlights within Old Town. Diana was very knowledgeable and has structured a helpful introduction, especially for short stays. Definitely worthwhile.

The most beautiful tour of Brasov ! - A tour of Brasov by Diana is really fascinating. We heard stories from the past, a lot of informations we didn't know and we saw historical places and buildings. Diana was patient with us and offered us wonderful hours in the historic center of Brasov. Diana knows very well other tourist areas near Brasov and gladly accompanies you !

A wonderful addition to my trip - I visited Braşov by myself for a few days to celebrate the new year and decided to book this walking tour as a way to take in as much of the town as possible and make the most of my trip. I’m so glad I did and would 100% recommend it to anyone visiting. Diana is lovely, very knowledgeable on the history of Braşov and incredibly kind. Her friendly personality makes you feel very comfortable right away and she is dedicated to providing you with the many pieces of history that Braşov has to offer. She was incredibly helpful to me in terms of also finding out and providing me with the best travel information so that I could get back to Sibiu the next day for my return flight. Diana’s tour is a must if you are in the area!

Very useful and scenic - Great tour by Diana. She was very helpful and informative and very good English. She adapted the tour to include more a scenic walk and a bit more history which enables great photos just before sunset. All at a great price even as a last minute booking - Must give it a go.

Lovely short tour with interesting history and views - I had a lovely couple of hours with Daniela in Brasov. I was alone, and she was super accommodating in the time I wanted to meet. We had a lovely walk around the town including seeing the landmarks and the views from the towers over the city. I learnt some nice history of the place and interesting facts. You could learn all of this on your own, but it was nicer to have a local show me the town and to meet someone who lived there. Daniela also recommended restaurants and the local food. Very pleasant trip.
