The forest ranger will meet you right near the old city centre of Brasov in the afternoon and will take you in an air-conditioned minivan or car into the hills of Transylvania, near Brasov.
In Romania, more than 5.000 brown bears are living, and we will go to see them in the natural environment. On the way to the forest, you will learn more details about these fascinating animals, what are their habits and how they can become so big.
After the arrival, you will go together with the ranger to the observatory where quietly we will wait to start to see the bears.
There's around a 90% chance of seeing the enormous animals, and you may be lucky enough to observe everything from large males to mothers playing with their cubs.
Besides the bears, we can have the chance to see other wildlife such as boar, roe and red deer, and the game birds are known to live here.
Please note: Please wear comfortable shoes, we will need to go from the car to the observatory by walking.

We saw 2 bears. The guide was informative. He made every effort to ensure that the group would get to see at least 1 bear.

Es war sehr spannend und ein neues Erlebnis, mit einer Gruppe zusammen zu schweigen, denn das ist eine der wichtigsten Regeln, dsss man sehr leise sein muss.
Wir haben gemeisam ca. 3 Stunden gewartet, leider waren wir die erste Tour in 2022 die keinen Bären zu Gesicht bekam. Ohne Nachfrage hat man uns die gesamte Erstattung angeboten.
Da sie mit uns gewartet haben, wollten wir das nicht annehmen und dann haben sie vorgeschlagen, dass wir mit dem Geld Pate eines Bären im Bärenreservat werden können.
Das war eine gute Idee und so hat unsere Bärentour noch einen guten Zweck erfüllt. So ist man glücklich, auch wenn wir keinen Bären gesehen haben. Wir werden die Tour wiederholen.

We did two tours courtesy of Dan ☺️ He was so insightful for our walking tour and was able to hook us up with the bear tour which was equally as fabulous. Dan was insightful and very responsive. We couldn't recommend him enough!
