Perfect experience in Transylvania! - Our guide Charlie was responsible and funny. He explained many things to us during the trip. Since we had a flight tonight, he even offered to take us to Brașov Airport. We really appreciate his help.

A must do experience in Transylvania - Your was very interesting. Sighisora was well worth the visit, even though it was a two hour drive from Braşov. This unique fortress city is very well restored and had a lot to offer. On the way back to Braşov we stopped at the village of Viscri, this too was a worthwhile stop as it is a unique village with beautifully restored houses and the fortified church at the top of the village was the jewel in the crown of the village. Our guide Simon Tiberiu was very knowledgeable and gave us lots of historical details and anecdotes which contributed to the trip being a succe

A journey through time - A simply extraordinary journey, which I will carry with me for a long time. Every detail of the tour was taken care of with passion and professionalism: the impeccable organization, the perfect timing, and above all Charlie — an exceptional guide, capable of turning every story into a living emotion. Charlie was not only a guide, but a true travel companion: engaging, prepared and with an infectious energy. We explored places of overwhelming beauty, discovered fascinating stories and experienced moments that seemed to come out of a dream. We walked between beauty and memory, listening to the breath of time, letting something rare touch us. An intense experience, which remains inside and continues to vibrate even after the end of the journey. Thank you so much, Charlie, for making this so special.

Memorable trip to Sighisoara - The tour to Sighisoara is nothing but superb, not only because of the peaceful city and spectacular scenery but also the excellent company of our guide, Charlie. Charlie is professional, bringing us around the city with vivid and inspiring stories. Apart from knowledgeble, he is very helpful and with good sense of humour. The first-rated company and hospitality of Charlie have made the trip one of the best and most memorable ones of us. Three big thumbs up!

The best tour guide we've met - The trip was amazing. Tiberiu, tour guide, was knowledgeable. We talked about everything of Romania and different cultures of the world. He recommended very good restaurant and other travelling tips in Romania. Last and important was he put safety driving as priority. :) the trip was highly recommended anyway, you can see beautiful countrysides andhistorical buildings.
