Reviews about Unique Experiences with Locals
Great tour. We drove through beautiful countryside to get to the forest where the hide was situated. We were lucky to see 3 bears as well as some smaller animals. It was really special seeing these beautiful creatures in the wild. Simona was very professional, knowledgeable and passionate.
Myself and my partner had an incredible time on our bear watching experience - it was just the two of us so it felt extra special. Simona was brilliant - she picked us up in Brasov and on the journey to the hide was full of fascinating information about Romanian bears and the difficult relationship between bears and humans in the country. Once in the hide, she let us borrow her binoculars and camera, and even sent us all the pictures we took afterwards. It was raining quite heavily the afternoon of our tour, so we were worried we wouldn’t see any bears. We needn’t have worried - right after we arrived our first bear appeared, and we ended up seeing 7! It even started snowing at one point, adding to the magic of the experience. We were amazed at how quickly Simona was able to identify each bear, and it was wonderful how excited she got at seeing certain bears, especially one in particular that she hadn’t seen in a long time, it made it all the more exciting for us. We would definitely recommend this tour for anyone coming to Brasov.
Alex was very knowledgeable and clearly comfortable hiking through the forest. The stories of his experiences made the hike more enjoyable!
Great idea to spend a day around Brasov. The guide had a good knowledge of the local history, traditions and idiosyncrasy, as well as kind and willing to help. 100% recommend
