Our tour guide for the day was Ovidiu (Ovi). Initially, we planned an easy hike in the Fagaras mountains; however, due to abundant snow, we needed to change our plans. They provided several great alternatives (Sambata and Piatra Craiului, for instance). Our group really wanted to see the Fagaras mountains and requested to take the Transfagarasan cable car to Balea Lake for an easy hike in that area. We were thrilled they could accommodate our request. Ovi is a friendly and knowledgeable guide with many exciting adventure stories. He is also an excellent photographer and captured numerous fantastic photos of our group! I would highly recommend this tour to anyone seeking an easy day hike, especially considering their flexibility if the weather doesn't allow for the original plan. Thank you, Ovi, for accommodating our request and for the wonderful experience!
