A good tour, the young guides was informative with a good sense of humour. I think the tour at £35pp was a little expensive, I have been on many city tours across Europe and feel that this was a little overpriced. Having said that, it was enjoyable!
Excellent overview of the city, its history and culture. The guide did a great job of answering all of our questions at a very good pace for us.
We had the pleasure of exploring Brașov with Radu, and we couldn't have asked for a better guide. From the very beginning, it was obvious that he truly loves his city and enjoys sharing its history and stories with visitors. We started in the beautiful Old Town and then ventured beyond the main tourist areas to learn how Brașov has grown and changed over the years. Radu was incredibly knowledgeable, easy to talk to, and always happy to answer our many questions. By the end of the tour, we felt like we had a real understanding of the city instead of just seeing the sights. We absolutely fell in love with Brașov, and having Radu as our guide made the experience even more special. In fact, it left us wanting to come back and spend even more time here. If you're visiting Brașov, don't miss the chance to explore it (hopefully with Radu). Highly recommended!
Radu was great. Instructions to meet were perfect too, the group in total was 5 people + guide. We started off with a short coffee break as we strolled the streets of old town and learned the history of Brasov. Radu even gave suggestions for restaurants and how to get to other locations for views.
Excellent walk with a very knowledgeable and friendly guide, Vlad. He was very informative about the Town's history and its modern situation. He also contacted us the day before to make sure that we knew where to meet and to see if we required any further information. Top class service all round.
Andrei Radu was a fascinsting local guide, well instructed, perfect English, and took us to the right places in town. Strongly recommend him.
Such a great way to see the town of Brasov! Vlad was amazing in sharing all the History of the town. Walked up two towers with amazing views and just overall splendid time!
Had a great time learning about the history of Bucharest and Boniva the food was great the city very clean
Such a great way to see the town! All the History and the view points were absolute worth the walk up the hill and watch tower. Vlad was amazing and great communication.
Radu was a fantastic guide, and I truly feel like I learned a lot about the history of Brasov in a short period of time! He was able to present history and folklore in a very entertaining and engaging way, and the tour felt perfectly paced. He even had a wonderful restaurant recommendation! I would absolutely take this tour again.
