Due to the current covid situation, I had a private tour that day, which was awesome. Mathias was a great guide, has a lot of general Romanian knowledge along with historical. This made for great conversation on the way to and from the castles. I highly recommend the tour and would gladly do it again with friends and family in the future.

This tours will take you around the Banat highland region. Throughout history, Banat was at the border of all the empires that spread over the region, most notably the Ottoman and Austrian Empires, which facilitated people of different nations to come in, giving it its multiculturality. The richness of the land turned it into an important industrial hub, around which urban and rural life developed. Empires came and went and the industrial period faded, but what withstood the test of time is a treasure full of natural wonders and beauty. In this tour you will see some of the industrial legacy, meet the multicultural heritage and enjoy the beauty of our natural sights.

This hiking trip was rather short but packed with interesting experiences, considering that all the stops have something else to offer. I recommend it to anyone eager to explore the great outdoors but who wouldn't necessarily want to push their boundaries to the limit—unless they cannot stand to be in the same place with some friendly bats, hehe. Adelin is very helpful and willing to offer support with anything—transportation, equipment, unexpected issues etc. The itinerary is well-organized and there are a lot of sites to see—in addition to the caves, the gorges and hiking trails are equally rewarding. Would definitely go again :)

Adrian was prompt picking us up in the morning as we settled into a pleasant drive to Braşov. Stopped for a quick coffee about halfway. Adrian showed us around Braşov and gave us plenty of time to explore on our own. We then drove to Bran Castle and Adrian was so knowledgeable about the history as he gave us a private tour. Finally we went to Peles Castle and once again astounded us with his depth of knowledge. Amazing day, one a highly recommend.
