Welcome to Romania!
Book Covid-safe tours in Romania with carefully selected local guides from all over the country!
We want to make travel easier and exciting for everyone - especially during these uncertain times.
Think of us as your good friend from Romania you can ask for advice :)
So, what do YOU want to do and experience in Romania?
Our favourite tours:
Romania is open for tourism - read our Covid-19 Romania travel restrictions article for up to date info! All our tours run normally and our guides respect Covid-19 safety measures and are vaccinated.
We're seeing a lot of short-notice bookings this season, probably due to Covid-related travel uncertainty. We recommend you plan + book tours in advance to make sure you save your spot as all our tours are private and our guides have limited availability. Our cancelation policy is very flexible (1-3 days advance notice to get a full refund) so no stress!
If you need help with planning your trip send us a message or create your custom tour - we're happy to help!
