Great day visiting Slănic Salt Mine and Perles Castle! - I had a great time with Florin visiting the Slanic Salt Mine and Peles Castle. He was super friendly, easy to talk to, and has a lot of knowledge of Romania. The whole day was fun and relaxed and learned a lot without feeling rushed. Everything ran smoothly from start to finish and nothing was too much. Highly recommend Florin if you’re visiting Romania and will be contacting him again when I visit again in the future!

Fantastic experience! - We had an excellent trip to Libearty Bear Sanctuary and the Transfagarasan Road at the end of September. Right from the stage of arranging the trip our contact with Florin was very efficient. On the day of the trip, everything went great - Florin is a friendly and witty guide who ran the whole trip efficiently, is very knowledgeable and showed us the best photo points in the mountains. Despite the surprisingly wintry conditions, everything went off without a hitch. In addition, we also visited the old monastery in Carta for a small fee. Highly recommended!

Perfect day trip from Brasov - I can only recommend having a tour with Florin, a kind, fun person and fantastic guide. He drove me along the Transfagarasan and to Sibiu giving me valuable insights on Romanian culture and history. He loves his country and he will make you love it too!
Wishing him all the best from Italy!

Perfect - I had an absolutely amazing experience with Ivan florin He is not only extremely knowledgeable about Romania’s history, culture, and hidden gems, but also very kind, patient, and professional. Every detail of the tour was perfectly organized, and he made sure we felt comfortable and enjoyed every moment. Thanks to him, we discovered places we would have never found on our own and learned so many fascinating stories. His passion for his country truly shines through in the way he explains everything.
I highly recommend Ivan florin to anyone visiting Romania – he will turn your trip into an unforgettable experience!

Lovely day trip to Bran & Rasnov castles plus Harman & Prejmer fortified churches. - We had a fabulous day with Florian showing us these places-Bran Castle-fairytale-like castle-but very crowded with tourists. Raznov Fortress-amazing setting with wonderful views-still being renovated so we hope to visit again when it fully opens. The real highlights were the two fortified churches-we’ve never seen anything like these in our numerous travels. Such an unknown treasure of Romania. Absolutely amazed that they have survived intact for nearly 800 years.to walk around the secret tunnels listening to Florian’s knowledgeable stories and histories-and with hardly anyone else there was so special.
Florian really knows his history, is incredibly friendly and welcoming and will answer any questions you may have. We highly recommend him.

A lovely day visiting Saxon villages in Transylvania - I went on the Saxon villages tour with Florin on my solo trip through Transylvania as I wanted to get away from the cities and explore other parts of the region. It was a great decision and I'd definitely go again. Florin gave me a lot of insights on the places we saw and on life in Romania, both today and in the past... and he also customised the tour a bit, since I was alone. The conversations we had were another tour of itself :) thank you again, Florin, for sharing your knowledge, experience and life stories. I really appreciated it.

An excellent day!!! - The tour was very informative and pleasant.
We discovered a lot of interesting things about the history of some villages and fortified churches from Transylvania (Viscri, Sachiz, Crit...).
We visited also some fortresses (Feldioara, Rupea...).
Our guide told us a lot of interesting things about the objectives included in the tour and was very attentive to our ideas.
We strongly recommend the guide and the tour.
Looking forward to attending another instructive and pleasant tour!

An unforgettable tour thanks to our incredibly knowledgeable guide! - Our trip to Romania, featuring Sighisoara, Biertan, and the village of Viscri, was unforgettable. Sighisoara, the birthplace of Vlad the Impaler, captivated us with its medieval architecture. Our guide passionately shared the city's history, making the visit truly fascinating.
Biertan, with its impressive fortress, surprised us with its beauty and rich heritage. The highlight was Viscri, a UNESCO-listed village, where we were enchanted by the traditional houses.
Thanks to our guide, who immersed us in local stories, we will cherish these moments for a long time. We highly recommend this route to anyone eager to discover the beauty of Romania!

Ideal day trip from Brasov - Visited Sigisoara and fortified churches on private tour. Very knowledgeable and friendly guide who made sure we saw everything. The churches are small and a private tour is the only way to see everything.
