6-Days Transylvania & Wooden Churches of Maramures from Bucharest

What a great surprise when we realized that the only participants on this trip were my husband and I along with our driver/guide, Marius. What a knowledgeable and fun guide! He was genuinely passionate about his country, eager to make this trip comfortable for us and kept us in the loop about driving times which were sometimes long, but that was obvious from our choice to go from Bucharest to Maramures in such a short time . Our time spent in Breb was pure delight offering the dishes, the flavours and the wholesomeness with unbridled generosity. We loved the mountains, the bears, the food, the castles, the history and the people! Thanks Marius for your passion in selling your country to us.

Since we wanted to see more than the typical Transylvania tour, my boyfriend and I booked the 6 days tour to see Romania Our guide was Marius, who was informative, friendly and fun. By the end of the tour he felt more like a traveling friend than a guide. Tour was nicely paced and Marius gave us plenty of free time to explore on our own. The hotels were all excellent. This tour included 2 nights at a home stay in Maramures, which was my absolute favorite. The home cooked meals by Elena, who used fresh ingredients from their garden, hens and local farmers, were absolutely delicious. You could tell right away that the meals were made with love by her. During this tour, you see all the beautiful wooden churches, monasteries, cemeteries, mountains and farm life in Romania. We got to spend more time at each location than you would with a one day tour, which is why I would highly recommend this tour if you want to see the real Romania.

Wow! What a great 6 days to see Romania. We wanted to see a bit more than the typical Transylvania tour. Our guide was Marius, super friendly, fun and informative. By the end of the tour he felt more like a traveling friend than a guide. Tour was nicely paced, without early departing times. Plenty of free time to explore on your own. Hotels were all great, with my favorite being the home stay in Maramures. The home cooked meals by Elena were sooo good but her fresh baked bread was out of this world. I overstuffed myself both days. You see all the beautiful wooden churches, monasteries, cemeteries, mountains and farm life in Romania. We even saw a bear on the side of the road which is rare at our elevation. We got to spend more time at the location than you would with a one day tour. I would recommend this tour to anybody if you want to see the real Romania
