“This was an extremely good, compehensive tour of the historic center of Cluj. Daniela, our tour guide, first gave us a thorough but succinct history of Cluj, starting with the Dacians and Romans, through the Middle Ages and on to WWl, WW2, Communism and the present. Extremely interesting and provided the historical context for the main historical sights, which Daniela then explained while we walked through the historic center and stopped at key sights for her expert commentary. Daniela is passonate about Cluj and its history. and this only adds to the high quality of this tour. Great job, Daniela! Overall, this is a great historical overview tour of Cluj…”

“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!”
