He was happy to answer all of our questions honestly and was willing to adapt his tour as we had been in the city for a couple of days already - however, we didn’t need him to as he was a much clearer guide than others we had and his tour schedule covered all the important sights of the city. Fantastic - do this tour!”

“Alex was a great guide and this was a beautiful hike! I wasn't aware of just how hard this hike would be (1000 meters/3200 feet) of elevation gain over about 4 miles, which included rock scrabbling and using a cable assist in 2 places but it was well worth it! I was grateful Alex let me use his hiking poles on the way down because it is VERY steep and my legs were like overcooked spaghetti noodles by the time we started decending.”

He made everything come to life with his detailed descriptions of historical context, and he knew all the nooks and crannies at each site. It was just incredible. It was a busy Saturday, so he voluntarily picked us up a half hour earlier than originally planned to get a jump start, and he knew where to park at each site so we didn't have to hike (it looked like miles at Peleş!). Don't skip the second or third floors in Peleș…”

“The best private tour I had in Romania. I absolutelly recomend to book this tour and request Tudor as your guide. He is very knowledgable about Brasov's and Romanian history as well as geography and will answer all the questions you may have. He went on and beyond to make sure I had a great experience with politeness and professionalism. The road trip was very enjoyable, even though the curves towards the mountain, but Tudor drove safely and made several stops so I could enjoy the scenery (which is imponent)....A must do tour!”
