Sibiu in July
To put it simply, I did not regret booking this trip. From pickup to dropoff, the itinerary was unrushed and seamless, paired with a well-experienced tour guide/photographer/driver. Sibiu deserves to be visited, not just as a tourist destination, but the journey going there is even the highlight of it. The 08:30-18:30 duration on a mid-July summer never felt like the hours passed were dragging to finish. Highly recommended. And don't forget to fetch the miraculous healing waters first thing along the way to hydrate your entire trip. Even the bottleneck traffic jams were forgettable on a comfortable, air-conditioned, private vehicle.

Great tour
We saw many different things on the way to Sibiu that we didn’t expect. So it was most surprising and very interesting. Our guide Florin stopped first at an underground church, then to an artisanal carpet maker like in the old days and to a very old church and monastery from the 12 century.
After that we went to Sibiu where he described the old city. It was a great experience overall.

Good tour of Sibiu and other sites
The Orthodox Church was very beautiful, and the other sites were interesting. Our guide did a great job of telling us about the sites and about The history of the area.

Plus he took us to see the snow!
Our driver, Florian was prompt, knowledgeable, and friendly. Plus, he was super flexible. He agreed to alter our plans for the day to add an extra side trip! We did pay a little extra but it was a good decision. His English was excellent and he was a good teacher. All-in-all a very good day.

An Easy Way to See Main Tourist Interest Spots
This was my second tour with Florin, who was very flexible with our time schedule since we had to be back by 4pm. This tour is great for getting to and from a few of the main tourist attractions while visiting Brasov. I mention this in my other review for Transfăgărășan tour with Florin, but what is missing is the 20 minute tour pitch about the history and background of the area while driving to the spots on the tour. If we didn't ask any questions, then we would not have learned much about where we were going and visiting. You had to have questions ready. Or else the car ride was long and silent.

Solo trip experience
I was looking to go out on my own, but an ad suggested this tour and it was awesome! Got to experince the countryside of Transylvania and learn about its history. Went to some areas you wouldn’t find as a tourist. Duration was very flexible as it depends on how long you want to spend in those areas, and also gives you the chance to do other things you may find along the way. 100% recommend!
