Our driver Vlad was really friendly and welcoming. While on his car he told us all the story about Bran Castle and Dracula, then he gave us a tour of the Peles castle and took us to a nice restaurant in Sinaia. He also gave us a lot of information for Romania and anything we needed to know for our next days in the country. Totally recommend a transfer or tour with him, his English is excellent as well.

My recollections of thelaces we visited in Maramures and Transylvania are a bit hazy -- but what I can say that is that Gelu was an absolutely superb guide -- warm, friendly, and very well informed -- through his insightful commentary I learned so much about Romania's rich cultural heritage -- it was a great pleasure just spending time with Gelu and his lovely daughter Lucia -- both of them wonderful human beings -- If you are looking for a first-class, multidimensional travel experience, you can't do better than Gelu as your guide -- Toby Symington

You’ll have the chance to discover the history behind three of the most visited and appreciated fortified churches and citadels in the heart of Romania.

You’ll have the chance to admire a unique courtyard and let yourself impressed by the creativity of it’s medieval touches. The second stop is the Fortified Church in Harman. Back then, this church was more than just a place people would go to pray in. It was also used as a refuge for people in need. Next is the Rasnov Citadel. It’s a very impressive Citadel build on top of a hill. It’s main purpose used to be of defense. We end the day with a lovely walk around the most well-known ski resort in Romania: Poiana Brasov. This is a place worth visiting no matter the season. It’s also a chance for you to get to know a different part of Romania.

I got picked up in the morning from my hotel which was very convenient. The time spent on the road was around 1 hour or so, parked the car and immediately started climbing. It was difficult at first. I was lucky to be travelling alone. I know most of my friends are not hiking lovers. The rather steep climb ended rapidly, and I felt I could breathe again. Now that I think about it, it wasn’t that steep anyway! There were other tourists on the path so I think that this is a popular trail. Soon enough we reached the Curmatura Cabin. Ramona was very nice and explained everything I wanted to know. Honestly, I don’t know how she could talk and hike at the same time! But I think she’s been born and raised in the woods so that explains a lot :)) The food from the cabin was tasty, specially the homemade pies! You don’t want to miss that. They also had a huge dog and a big, orange cat, which were both very calm and friendly and demanded that we fed them. On the way back, we passed through a Canyon, I believe it was the Zarnesti Canyon. A place where nature was indeed extremely generous and created a timeless beauty. All in all, the hike was very pleasant and I can’t wait to be able to travel again! A big hello to you Ramona and keep up the good work, I love what you do and how you bring the beauty closer to people’s lives.

It was our first time in Brașov, also our first time with a tour guide. We had a great day with Florin, he was very knowledgeable and clearly passionate about Brașov and its history. We enjoyed our tour thoroughly and, although we weren't so vocal, he managed to mix history, local knowledge and personal stories to keep us entertained and engaged. We would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Brașov.

9. Ski Progression Lessons

Capra Neagra Cable car, Brașov, Romania Pirvulescu Andrei

You will have a free run, in which your current level will be observed, after that we will begin to correct and introduce new elements to your technique. Carving is where the edges cut into the snow so well that the skis do not slide sideways, and travel straight along their length. Ski racers try to carve all the time, as it is the quickest way down the mountain, and conserves as much of their speed as possible. We will practice the three essential principles that define a ski turn : Initiation, Shaping and Finishing. This helps you on the groomed piste in ice conditions but also to start your adventure outside the piste, because you will be able to asses, feel and control not only your posture but also your center of gravity.

Inclusions: Coffee and/or Tea

Exclusions: Skiing Equipment, All Fees and Taxes
