Reviews about Unique Experiences with Locals

A highlight of our Romanian visit. A chance to see and hear about the country from a local and share a beautiful meal in their lovely home. We certainly feel we have made a Romanian friend. Vlad communicated very well, was understanding, caring and flexible. I can't recommend this highly enough.


The tour was everything we expected and hoped for. Starting with a punctual pick up, a pleasant ride with very knowledgeable guide. We feelt safe at all times. And of course seeing the bears themselves (many lovely bears!). We enjoyed it immensely, and I highly recommend to anyone who wants to enjoy wild life in Romania! Thank you, Simona for an amazing afternoon <3


Amazing tour. We saw a lot of bears coming out of the forest. Really impressive! And the guide is the nicest person we've met in a long time. That was wonderful!


Iancu was excellent throughout the experience. He proactively reached out before the hike to align expectations while remaining flexible with the hiking plan. Despite the date clashing with Easter Saturday, he kindly accommodated our preferred schedule. His deep knowledge of Romanian history and culture greatly enriched our experience, and he consistently ensured our safety along the trail. He also graciously agreed to extend our hike slightly so we could enjoy the trail all the way to the rest house. Beyond the hike, he went the extra mile by driving us around Cluj and sharing insights about the city. Iancu was more than a well-composed guide - he was like a friend whom we have never met for a long time and gladly showed us what Romania has to offer.
