Vlad the Impaler stated his claim to Bucharest in 1459. His citadel on the Dambovita was the first of flotillas of palaces, many of which still stand. Four subway lines and a modern bus network transport visitors and commuters. Nicknamed "Little Paris", Bucharest's elegant early 20th-century architecture shows French influences. Don't miss the Village Museum, Romanian Athenaeum and the Peasant Museum. You can't miss the Palace of Parliament, the second-largest building in the world (after the Pentagon).

I cannot say enough good things about Toni Tatar. Ours is a unique story in that I was unable to go on the tour due to the COVID 19 quarantine. However, prior to this unexpected issue, Toni was incredible. We were to take a private tour to see my grandmother’s village which she left in 1907. Besides crafting the exact tour I wanted, Toni researched my family name in this area and found 7 other.relatives who emigrated at that time. Without his research the trip would have been much less meaningful. Toni was on top of all of our needs and wants. His kindness and professionalism came through in every email. Travel will eventually be safe again at which time I will go to Romania and meet this remarkable man. Most likely I will stay longer than planned in 2020 because of my comfort with working with him.

I connected with Secret Romania thru trip.me. Florin and I worked together to put together a 9 day trip with a driver/tour guide. Florin was so easy to work with. He accommodated everything I asked for. He responded so quickly when I sent emails even though we are 10 hours apart. He picked us up from the airport and took us to get something to eat before we settled into our hotel. In the morning we met our tour guide Ana. She was amazing! We drove around the country together for 9 days. She knew the history of everything, wherever we went. She even added a few off the beaten path stops that most people never see. She was so friendly, funny and happy. We had a trip that was far greater than we ever expected! We have traveled a lot, but must say this was one of our favorite trips! I highly recommend Romania and without reservation I highly suggest Florin, Ana and Secret Romania if you are going there. Many of our friends have put this on their bucket list after seeing all our pictures. I told them Secret Romania and Florin Preda are the only way to go!! Cant say enough great things about them. Just trust me! Use them!
