Emil was a nice entertaining guide. Had a great drive from Bucharest across the border to Veliko Tarnovo. Nice lunch at the Green Man restaurant. Interesting visit of the ruins, the city and its surroundings. I would recommend Rolandia Tours to anyone interested to take a tour around Romania and/or Bulgaria

Experiência do guia Cristi foi excelente para deixar o passeio agradável. Apesar do tour ser cansativo, pois dura o dia todo, vale a pena pra quem tem dias sobrando em Bucareste e deseja conhecer outra cultura/país.
