Our off road trip with Marius
We had an incredible jeep tour with Marius today! We were two families with young children, and Marius was fantastic from start to finish.
He listened carefully to what we wanted and tailored the entire trip to our needs. Thanks to his experience and specially equipped off-road vehicles, we reached places we never would have discovered on our own. We drove along beautiful forest trails, tackled some seriously steep climbs and descents, and even experienced technical off-road driving that was far beyond anything we expected.
It was challenging, exciting, and incredibly fun, while Marius made sure we felt safe and comfortable throughout the entire adventure.
This was definitely one of the highlights of our trip to Romania. Highly recommended! If you’re looking for a genuine off-road adventure and want to discover places most tourists never get to see, go with Marius. You won’t be disappointed!

A journey beyond the ordinary
An unforgettable experience I would gladly repeat anytime. Huge thanks to the team at 4x4 Tours, especially Marius and Dragoș, for showing us a wilder, more authentic side of the mountains. The breathtaking landscapes and the deep sense of peace we found there made this a truly special day we will always remember. 🏔️✨

Perfect day to Bran Castle through amazing nature
We had a whole day together with Marius in his 4x4, which was a very pleasant experience. The tour lived totally up to our expectations and Marius even ensured to add a little extra to the top. We saw amazing nature and experienced local traditions. Throughout the whole day Marius was very friendly and informative, but he also ensured that we as a family had time for ourselves to embrace everything. Can only recommend this, 5 stars to Marius!

Amazing!!!
We were able to take a one-day tour, we didn't have much time, but the tour was very good, the most beautiful views I've ever seen, we had fun as a family, I was able to enjoy off-roading in a different country, even if just a little. I recommend it to everyone.

Most recommend to do in Romania
I highly recommend this tour and this company. We had a great long trip with Marius. Marius wait for us at the morning, took us ro a lovely and hidden places. Also, we ate all together at local restaurant (this part isn't related to Marius and we don't recommend this restaurant).
He also took us to his mountain cabin and prepare us coffee with cookies.
Even the tour shouls end at 17:30pm, Marius extend it till 19:00pm.
Good service, great price.

4x4-tours, THE adventure you HAVE to give it a GO.
For me it was the third time having the opportunity to be apart of this amazing experience, Marius, the best travel guide known by me, who I highly recommend to all of you whom are reading this review.
From the very beginning of the tour Marius started to explain via walkie-talkies all the things that were passing around by us, making us learn new things throughout the whole experience.
As in the cars that made our trip possible, outstanding 4x4 machines that can push their limit to their maximum while also creating the safe feeling and relaxing trip from the very start of it.
We highly recommend Marius and his higly appreciated 4x4 tours throughout our beloved country, Romania.

Unforgettable event in untouched nature away from the usual paths and roads
There were 8 of us and we had a fantastic off-road tour through the Carpathians in wonderful autumn weather with great views of the surrounding mountains and landscapes. The trip was simply fantastic and our tour guides were excellent. Thanks again to Marius who put together such a great tour for us. I can only recommend it.

Off-road enthousiast
We had a great one day trip with Marius. Marius is an off-road fan and this is something you notice in his enthusiasm of going off-road. He has found some real pearls of off-road tracks and he has shared his knowledge regarding the country and the people. Excellent experience. Even so we did the one day tour, after speaking with Marius I would recommend a multi day tour to get more experience and find more hidden gems in Romania. Thank you Marius!!
