The five Vikings on hike
A fantastic hike in genuine landscape in the Malaiesti valley. With the right conditions for hiking, a continued adventurous hike up to the highest point of Bucegi Park is offered. It is worth the effort to reach the top. Take the whole day for this hike under the safe guidance of guide Adrian. You get much more than hiking with his stories about the surroundings and the history of Romania. The trip is highly recommended and is a nice memory from your trip. We, five Swedes, are very satisfied with this hike

Tremendous hiking tour!
A tremendous hiking tour with Adrian! My wife and I really enjoyed his company - understanding of our needs and physical abilities yet encouraged us along the way. We learned so much about Romanian history and culture even beyond the natural park exploration! A chance encounter with a local nomadic shepherd was definitely a highlight of our România trip.
If you are ever in Braşov - definitely do not hesitate to book Adrian for an unforgettable hiking trip to enjoy the mountains.

Thank you so much Brett for your wonderful review! It was a real pleasure spending the day with you both and sharing the mountains, as well as some of Romania’s history and culture.
I’m especially glad you enjoyed our unexpected encounter with the local shepherd, those authentic, unplanned moments are often what make a trip truly memorable.
Thank you for your trust, your great company, and for recommending me. I hope your Romanian adventure left you with many wonderful memories, and I’d be delighted to see you again if you return to Brașov and Transylvania!
All the best,
Adrian

Very nice hike
We enjoyed the hike.
The pickup and return transport by car was uncomplicated and I felt very safe. The hike was good and Adrian, the guide, made an effort to make the excursion as good as possible.
He knows a lot about the history of the country and talks a lot about it; he is friendly and seems to be a very open person with whom you can talk without any problems.
All in all, it was a pleasant hike with a pleasant person.
We would book an excursion with him again at any time :)

It was a real pleasure spending the day with you, and I hope our paths cross again someday. You're always welcome back to Transylvania for another adventure!
Take care and all the best!

Fantastic Hike With Adrian
Adrian is a fantastic guide! We hiked up to Omu peak in Bucegi park. He was very knowledgeable about the area and quite a good hiking partner/guide. His English is impeccable and he is amicable and a good conversationalist. Would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a guide in the area, whether to see the local castles and cultural spots or for hiking and outdoor adventures.

Expertise and Positivity
Adrian was an amazing guide, ready for anything, extremely knowledgeable about the Bucegi trails, and a friendly and encouraging person in every respect. He took our son to Omu peak, and since the day concluded, our son has not stopped talking about what a great experience he had. Adrian is clearly an expert, but even more than that, he is a fabulous person to spend the day with and will show you the natural beauty of the Romanian mountains. Thank you, Adrian, for an unforgettable adventure for our son.

Thank you so much for your kind words! It truly means a lot to me.
It was a real pleasure to spend the day with your son and share the experience of hiking to Omu Peak together. He did an amazing job, and I really enjoyed seeing his enthusiasm and determination throughout the hike.
I'm very happy to hear that he's still talking about the adventure, that's the best compliment I could receive. I hope this is just the beginning of many more mountain adventures for him.
Thank you again for trusting me with such a special experience. I hope to see you all again in Romania for another adventure in the future!

Bucegi Mountains
This was my first time ever hiking a mountain, and it was an incredible experience. My friend and I went with our guide, Adrian, who was absolutely amazing. He was by far the best tour guide I’ve ever had. He made sure we went at a pace we were comfortable with, was incredibly friendly, and made the whole experience enjoyable from start to finish. The scenery was beautiful, and the views were absolutely breathtaking. I highly recommend this experience, especially if you get Adrian as your guide! ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Private Hike - Bucegi Moutains
My friend and I spent a half day hiking with Adrian through the Bucegi mountains. Adrian is a fun, adventurous sole, with a vast amount of knowledge of Romanian history. We enjoyed his energy as he led us through a somewhat moderately challenging hike (we are from Florida). It was May and there was still snow on the ground as we ascended to higher ground. The hike was about 5 hours from start to finish and about 5 miles round trip. The scenery was beautiful. After many city tours, it was a much needed day immersed in nature. It was very helpful to have a guide who knows the terrain and the trail. Thanks Adrian.

The most amazing hiking expereince in Romania
Adrian is a very kind and responsible guide who knows the trails extremely well. I felt safe hiking with him, especially on sections that were covered in snow and a bit slippery.
During the winter, it’s not possible to reach the peak, but the views are still stunning. Adrian is also very knowledgeable about Romanian history, and I learned a lot during the hike.
I highly recommend him for hiking, especially if you’re travelling solo.

Mountain therapy
Wow! What an amazing experience! We booked a last minute hike with Adrian. We were a little nervous as we are not the fittest of people. He collected us and took us to the mountains and went at our pace. And was so informative and patient.
By the time we got to the top - well, not the top but our reaching point. We were blown away by the views we saw! We’ve never seen such beauty.
We finished the day with a real sense of accomplishment. I called it mountain therapy because Adrian’s insights and the beauty of the mountain just unlocked something in us. To release everything and talk it all out into the tall trees.
It was healing, transformative and just so so so magical. Thank you again Adrian for such a wonderful day 🗻
