3 - Excursión de un día desde Bucarest : pueblos de Transilvania & ciudades medievales

Our tour guide Victor was the greatest. He gave us much information, answered all of our questions, and guided us to great tours. We enjoyed his knowledge, dedication, and sense of humor. We highly recommend him and this tour. Would definitely do this again.

Our trip to Romania was an experience of a lifetime, thanks to the incredible service from Book Tours Romania. From planning to post-trip follow-up, the level of care was unmatched. Planning: About a month before departure, Bogdan reached out via Zoom to customize our itinerary. He was professional, accommodating, and researched every local requirement to ensure a smooth trip. He even handled a last-minute vehicle upgrade to a van when I realized our four large suitcases wouldn't fit in a sedan—no questions asked. The Team: Our airport driver, Paul, was welcoming and shared great local insights immediately. Our primary guide, John, was phenomenal. He met us in the lobby the night before our tour to introduce himself and gifted us a lovely bottle of Romanian wine—a personalized touch we didn’t expect. Bucharest: John showed us the Historical Village Museum and Ceausescu’s former mansion (both must-sees). He kept the van stocked with cold water and snacks and even took us to Obor Market by request. When jet lag hit, he easily adjusted the schedule to our energy levels. Transylvania: We highly recommend the 3-day private tour. John’s driving was smooth and efficient. We visited Peles and Bran Castles, which are essential stops. In Brasov, we stayed at the Schuster House; the boutique service and breakfast were stellar (note: no gym and coffee starts at 7:30 AM, but the Prosecco welcome was a treat!). Highlights: Sighisoara was the absolute highlight—truly enchanting. We also visited Viscri, and while the town was interesting, Sighisoara was the real star. John joined us for an excellent lunch at Georgius Krauss Restaurant, which we had all to ourselves. Going Above & Beyond: When we got briefly separated at Peles Castle due to a ticketing issue, both Bogdan and John stayed in constant communication via WhatsApp until we reconnected. It was incredibly reassuring. The Guide (John): John has the energy of ten guides. He was professional, respectful, and protected us from typical tourist mishaps. His ability to navigate local authorities and unique requirements was "golden." He even messaged us after we departed to ensure we reached our next destination safely. If you want a marvelous, stress-free experience in Romania, request Bogdan for planning and John as your guide. They truly treat you like family!

Four couples had taken a river cruise and at the end of the river cruise. We wanted to spend three days touring Romania. The company helped us organize an itinerary in a very professional manner. They listened to things we wanted to do and made recommendations. We couldn’t have been happier with the final itinerary that they set up for us. The guide was very knowledgeable about Romania including the history, the quaint villages, the beautiful scenery, awesome castles and fortress. We left Romania very impressed with the country. We left Romania after 3 days very impressed

Our 3 day tour of Romania ran very smoothly and met all our expectations. Bogdan’s administrative skills and communication were excellent and our guide Marcel was knowledgeable, flexible and cheerful. The overnight accommodation was very good - providing a great experience within a walled UNESCO old town and also in a country chalet. We strongly recommend this company as they are professional and competent.

So much fun! Our guide Matthew was just wonderful and told us so many great stories and we loved everything. The hotels they choose are very comfortable in good locations and the castles are incredible. Definitely do this!

Fantastic country with landscapes and linen villages, presented by an excellent guide, very attentive and patient, ready to adapt the trip and visits according to our preferences. Excellent accommodation and Romanian food! We just missed to see a bear alive!

Marcel could not have been a better tour guide. He was very knowledgeable about the history, customs, etc. of Romania, and presented it so that even I, who am not a history lover, was interested. The car and accommodations were first class. He took excellent care of us and was very accommodating. Definitely a first-class experience, I highly recommend it.

Our local guide was very friendly and extremely knowledgeable on Romanian history and culture and possessed excellent English skills (He spoke 5 languages). He booked all the tours and side excursions. The accommodations were both first-rate and historically significant. His schedule provided free time so we could explore some to the sites on our own. The travel routes he selected minimized the time spent traveling from one site to another.

If you are looking for a place where to find amazing landscapes, vibrant and full of history cities and delicious food look no further. We did the 3 days tours of Transylvania and loved every second of it. Bogdan has been incredibly professional and provided us all the details we needed before our trip and beyond! Our guide, Gelu, was very knowledgeable and friendly and went the extra mile to accommodate all our needs. We felt like with this tour we gained a better knowledge of the history of the country, got to visit places that we would have never found in our own (the hotel in Magura was amazing), got insights on the culture from a local and a lot of useful food recommendations. Highly recommend tour :)

I had a very nice 3 day private tour with Bogdan. Brasov and Sighisoara are beautiful places to visit and I very much enjoyed learning about the history of Romania. You can tell quite easily that Bogdan loves his country and enjoys teaching others about it. The castles, historic buildings, the small villages and the restaurants were awesome. The accommodations (Fronius Residence and Samedru Guest House) were fantastic...both providing wonderful glimpses into the history and scenery of Transylvania. I appreciate that Bogdan took the time to adapt the tour to the things I enjoy such as visiting old cemeteries. I am also very appreciative of Bogdan and all of the help he provided me during my time in Romanian. He was also very eager to help me practice my Romanian language skills. Highly recommend this tour
