Fabulous private tour. - Radu our tour guide was fabulous! Very knowledge and gave us time to explore all aspects of the tour. He was helpful. Using a private tour was definitely better than on a bus as we were able to go at our own pace and had more privacy and flexibility.

Radu is an amazing guide! - We booked this tour due to having only a short stay in Bucharest and wanted to maximise time and it was the BEST decision we made. Radu was our tour guide and was amazing. His communication from the moment we booked was perfect and recommended a slightly earlier start to avoid long queues which was a huge benefit. He was incredibly knowledable about Romania and kept us informed through every step of the tour. He made accommodations for our interests on the way. He recommended a beautiful spot for lunch in Brasov and it was some of the best food I've eaten. I would highly recommend this tour with Radu to anyone visiting. Thank you, you made our trip amazing!
