Laura –
A 4 day private tour we arranged with Secret Romania that was immense. It was above expectations and we will definitely be back to România to experience more of this wonderfully vibrant country and would only book with Secret România to do so. From making our original enquiry the communication was exceptionally reliable. Tailoring to our requests and interests; the owners were very knowledgeable to advise us on travel possibilities and places of interest to consider. Everything was made easy from accommodation choices to attractions and travel routes meaning we didn’t have to worry about any of the planning or organisation as it was all expertly taken care for us. Secret România collected us from Bucharest and over 4 days we journeyed to Braşov, Sibiu, Sighisoara and returning to Bucharest. Our tour guide was Alex and he crafted each day specifically to ensure we could immerse ourselves in the sites we visited and the places in which we stayed. We were made to feel incredibly comfortable throughout the tour. A pleasure to meet Florin, one of the owners, who kindly transported us to the airport on our final day with the added bonus of insights into Bucharest along the way. Thoroughly recommend booking with Secret România.
