A wonderful cultural visit. - An excellent tour. Andrei was punctual, polite and a safe driver. His English language and knowledge of history was phenomenal. The tour was very interesting at both sites. Andrei also shared his knowledge with us during the drive. I recommend the tour whole heartedly. Andrei was enthusiastic and indefatigable in his quest to share Romanian history with us despite temperatures of +34C today.

10/10 would recommend - Istvan was such a knowledgeable and personable tour guide. He really knew how to deliver the history in a way that made me want to discover more. The fortified churches and towns we walked through were breathtaking and I wish I was able to see more. Highly recommend.

Sighisoara and Biertan - an extraordinary experience - This trip was an extraordinary experience and I really recommend it: Sighisoara and Biertan were the two must-see sites in Transylvania. I took the trip together with a colleague and together we had the chance to delve into Romania's history in the most interesting way. This wouldn't have been possible if it weren't for our guide George, who was happy to answer our questions, give us the background to what we were seeing and with whom we sent very special moments. I would therefore like to finish this story with a big thank you to George, for his generosity and kindness! I will never forget this trip.

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 :)
