We were very fortunate to experience a well-prepared, informative, tasteful and friendly tour in Romania's beautiful Carphatian region. Laura, the organiser is an experienced, knowledgeable and friendly tour guide, very invested in the nature, culture, and food traditions of Romania. She sent us all the information in advance, the schedule was thoughtfully prepared with attention to details. She made the most out of the plan and we were exposed to a rich experience of sightseeing and food tasting. The menu was well planned, it introduced us to several traditional dishes from the region, such as a special type of smoked cheese from that region. So delicious! Another memorable activity was the horse-drawn cart journey through the village, it was very enjoyable and informative to experience a traditional mode of transport, still popular in the rural area.
We strongly recommend this tour that combines engaging activities and delicious food.
