If you are thinking of booking this tour, do not hesitate. Cristina and her husband Daniel were incredible hosts from the moment they picked us up at our accommodations. It was an early start to the day, but they provided snacks and water and offered to stop for breakfast on our schedule. It felt very personalized and we saw a lot during our day tour. This was a 'bucket list' experience for me, but what was nice was that the 3 friends who came along with me also found it to be a wonderful experience. Because we were a private group, Cristina was incredibly flexible to accommodate the schedule to our needs, adding in an extra stop when requested. She was so gracious! It is clear she has a great passion and pride in her country's rich history. Romania is an amazing country and I want to see more some day. All of us in our group thoroughly enjoyed the tour and our time with Cristina and Daniel. Thank you so much for making this amazing tour even more special, but being such wonderful hosts!
