Our guide, Mathias, was fantastic from start to finish. We encountered bad weather and some traffic issues and he drove bravely and safely the entire time. We are so grateful we booked this trip seeing what Mathias had to go through to get us safely to our tremendous destinations. Each trip stop was greatly enhanced by Mathias's stories and history.
We booked the 5-day Dracula Legends tour. Our interest in Dracula was not our main intent, but to truly see the best of the TRansylvain region, this tour was perfect. We were so exhausted every night with beautiful sights and fascinating history. Each accomodation was unique and adequate. Romania does not seem to provide water kettles in the rooms so that was a challenge for us coffee lovers. The Dracula theme hotel was creepy funny. The best part was not having to worry about anything on this tour as we were clearly in good hands with our guide. Highly recomend this experience to everyone!
Romania is a beautiful country which offers plenty of sightseeing. We enjoyed the nature, scenery, structures, palaces, churches, food and above all the legend of dracula, which is the highlight of this tour. This tour really focuses on the legend itself, blended with history and culture.
I travelled with a small group of two elderly and two children, five in total between 4th and 11th September 2018. The tour was expertly set and fit for everyone with plenty to see and do. At first I thought it was going to be challenging, having to change hotels every day and with the amount of travel it entails, but it was all very comfortable and easily manageable.
We have stayed in 6 different hotels, all of which were very comfortable and offered us a good service. Some were excellent, others very good. The themed hotels were a must-do, obviously one has to consider the theme of the tour and not expect any superior luxury in these specific hotels, after all they are themed! My kids enjoyed the Castel Dracula and the House of Dracula most due to their locations and the decor of these two hotels.
The locations visited were beautiful, palaces, churches, mountains, cities, old towns ... you name it, Romania has it.
The food was also delicious. We ate in different places every day and we loved trying different Romanian dishes every time. Food was very good and prices extremely reasonable.
All the above, altogether made our holiday exceptional, but what made it so very special was our Tour Guide. We were extremely lucky to meet a person who went out of his way to make our time in Romania an unforgettable experience. George Panica, Trip2Ro was our driver, our guide, our aide, who spent the week with us and helped us in all possible ways. He drove us to the locations, was patient enough to cater for two elderly and two children (two extremes), skipped queues to get us tickets, shared information and history of the place wherever we went and suggested excellent restaurants where we dined every single day. He then went out of his way to help us with luggage during our daily transfers, made special arrangements for my kids to experience more fun stuff, he surprised us with a couple of beautiful photos, he was patient with my parents as on occasions they were very slow ... one does not meet a person like George every day and I have no words to thank him enough.
I highly recommend Romania to those who would love to experience an excellent holiday and especially this specific tour to dracula lovers!
Five stars to tick are not enough!!!
