Reviews about Romanian Adventures & Wildlife Tours
I'm almost done with my two-week Romania trip and I must say this tour is one of my top three favorite memories here. The tour included a visit to the bat cave, where I was lucky to see some bats. Then it was a not-too-difficult 5-kilometer hike in Magura and Pestera Villages. I was amazed by the stunning scenery despite the cloudy sky and snow at times and how local people persevere in the face of challenges from mountain life. I wouldn't have known the stories behind them without going with a guide. My guide, Tiberiu, shared a lot of stories about the local people's way of life and when I asked him about the details I noticed along the way, he was able to answer them all. In fact, I had an enlightening time learning from his wealth of knowledge and life experience beyond what I saw in Magura and Pestera. I really appreciated the opportunity to exchange thoughts about Romania and other things in the world with Tiberiu. I enjoyed the lunch from locally-sourced ingredients on this tour. Very filling and delicious. Although the portion was big for me and I regret not being able to finish. I'm thankful that during the drive, Tiberiu made a few stops/rolled down the car window for me to take pictures more easily, including the Bran Castle which I didn't visit. I hope this tour continues to be discovered by travelers. I think mountains are among the essences of Transylvania. More than looking at the Carpathians from Brasov, experience them through this easy yet fulfilling opportunity.
Our guide, Simona, was incredibly knowledgeable and full of passion and interesting facts. We were also very lucky to see A LOT of bears in their interactions with each other and Simona was explaining everything on a documentary level. It was an incredible experience for all of us in the group.
We had a fantastic time on our hike in the Apuseni Mountains. The booking was an easy process, and our guide Radu contacted us right away with more information and details. The day of the hike Radu picked us up in Cluj and drove us to the beautiful countryside. Though people in our group had different fitness levels, we went at a pace that worked for everyone. Radu was a great encourager and a very experienced guide. Highlights include stunning views, a clifftop picnic, and stopping to fill our water bottles at fresh cold mountain springs.
This excursion was great! My partner and I went with Simona who was lovely, knowledgeable and loves her job. She is passionate about the bears and nature conservation. During our trip we saw 3 different brown bears and 2 foxes feeding! It was incredible to see up close. Highly recommend.
