Reviews
This was a wonderful tour. Adela was extremely knowledgeable and helpful and we greatly enjoyed her company. That we managed to see a bear on the way back was the icing on the cake. :)
Absolutely fantastic tour! I did a day trip from Timișoara to Retezat National Park for hiking, and it exceeded all my expectations. My guide was incredibly knowledgeable and kept sharing interesting facts and stories throughout the tour. The trails in Retezat are stunning, but honestly, I don’t think I could have navigated them safely or gotten as much out of the experience on my own. Finding this tour was such a lucky find for my solo trip. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to explore Retezat without the stress of planning it solo.
This tour is absolutely fantastic. Alex, our guide, was extremely knowledgeable about the history of the area, and made the experience fascinating. He came prepared to entertain us through real data and stories passed down. We had 2 women over 60 and 1 who was pregnant with 2 men, and he accommodated us with driving as far up the hill as possible to assure our safety and supplied walking sticks and handheld lights when it became dark. After returning home and going through my pictures, I did have one that looked like a man with a helmet on…see attached. It probably is a tree but you never know..lol I can’t say enough on how great Alex and the whole Hoia Bachu tour was
Using Romanian Friend was very easy to navigate and I really liked the extra articles that helped me plan for my trip. Our guide for this trip was Charlie and he was excellent! He had many stories about old town, not just the big stories, but little ones as well that were light-hearted. I felt very comfortable navigating old town after our tour and loved the knowledge that he shared with us. Highly recommend!
