I don't know how to describe how fantastic our trip with Mihai was. I was bringing my two young children (7 and 10) and three grandparents (all over 70), so we had a wide range of mobility and endurance capabilities, and Mihai knew exactly where to take us for sightseeing and booked great accommodations for us at each stop. He was so patient with my kids, even as they both got motion sick and had to sit up front with him. And he is so knowledgeable, not just about the rich history of Romania, but of modern socio-political and environmental issues I inquired about.
Mihai made a special side trip for us to my dad's grandfather's birthplace, and went knocking on doors to try to find our long-lost family still remaining there. We didn't end up meeting them, but the effort was above and beyond and it still made for such a fun memory with my dad.
Romania is absolutely beautiful, the castles and cathedrals in the towns throughout our tour rival anything you'll see in more crowded tourist spots around Europe. The people we encountered were warm and helpful.
Our family has been fortunate enough to travel to some great spots throughout the world, and our Transylvania tour is at the top of the list of my favorites. I hope to return soon and would not hesitate to book with Mihai again.
