Booked a paranormal tour of the Hoai Baciu with Marius. I had such a great experience! Got to visit all the hot spots and get great story telling with pictures of the famous historic phenomena. He also came prepared with odds and ends for the hike, like bug spray and EMF meters! You can tell Marius really cares for the forest, as he picks up odd bits of trash left behind by other careless hikers and loves to show off his favorite trees.

First of all, we are really glad we booked this tour and would recommend it 100%! Adela is an awesome and super knowledgeable tour-guide. We learned and saw so much in just one day. We visited Sarmizeregetusa Regia, Corvin Castle and Alba Iulia and it’s really hard to decide which one is the highlight because all 3 are totally worth seeing and give an amazing insight in romanian history!

Very enjoyable tour. Lots of information about Romanian food, culture and history. The walking was made challenging due to the extreme July heat - so be well prepared! Very good day overall.

I had a brilliant experience…. The booking and confirmation process was smooth and easy. Communication regarding the trip was really good. Alex (my guide) was really knowledgeable, experienced and friendly! I would strongly recommend the wildlife and bear watching experience! I will be sure to return next year!
