Bucegi Mountains are to die for!
I took a private tour with Mihai in the Bucegi Mountains, and it was outstanding! We spent 9 hours hiking through different valleys and honestly could have gone for more. He knows the right paths to take, how to find some beautiful spots and how to keep you safe amid fears of bears. If you ever need a guide, Mihai is the guide you want.
Charlie was outstanding
Charlie was outstanding, knowledgeable, friendly, and genuinely passionate about the history and culture here. He struck the perfect balance between guiding and giving us space to explore, and his stories really brought the places to life.
He was really helpful with an elderly couple who who were apart of the group, he ensured no one was rushed when visiting the Bran Castle. I highly recommend this trip.
We had an excellent experience with…
We had an excellent experience with Active Travel in Romania. We were a group of 7 people from Latvia, and we spent 5 days in Romania. These days, we have seen a lot, and also spent some days in the mountain area. I can say that our guide, Charlie, is a huge professional, and we can 100% recommend him. He is not just a great professional, but also a great person. Thanks, Active Travel, for our days in Romania!
Great guides, great tours!
The guides are the best part of the different tour. There were very politie, enjoyable, and nice persons.
The explained us a lot of history of the diferente castles (Peles, Cantacuzino, Bran…).
They also made us feel comfortable, helping us in any moment. We highly recommend all the tours.
Great hiking experience
Great hiking experience. Challenging terrain in some parts making it all the more fun. Like the idea of small groups and the ladder climbing was amazing. 👍
Highly recommended!
Had a wonderful experience with tour guide T.B on the Mountain Village hike!
Everything was perfect
Everything was perfect. We wish that there were more guides than Dan. He was very authentic, careful (in regards to driving and travel sickness of one of the passengers) and could answer all our questions.
We can recommend this tour with Dan.
We had a great experience with Active…
We had a great experience with Active Travel. We both really enjoyed out tour to Bran castle and Rasnov Fortress. Our tour guide Charlie is one of the best tour guides we ever met. He is very professional, knowledgeable and has a good sense of humour. He works in relaxed but efficient manner. I would definitely recommend tours offered by this company.
Great bear tour
Great bear tour! We saw 5 bears and the guide was very friendly and knowledgeable.
It was such a nice day and a sophisticating view!
It was such a nice day and a sophisticating view!
First stop was Bran Castle, I really loved it, I went there two times now and I can really recommend it.
The weather was a bit mixed so we had the option to do another hike through a stunning gorge. So we did and it was very remarkable. After that we drove to the restaurant in a village on top of the mountains. It was truly special because of the view and also because of the traditional and local food. It was beautiful to get an impression of romanian culture. The tour guide Dan was really friendly and knows a lot of his country and Transylvania. I've learned a lot about the life in Romania and about the history and culture - I'm sure this was also the best expierience next to the beautiful sceneries. Thanks a lot for this beautiful trip!
O experienta minunată
O experienta minunată! Imediat ce am ajuns in padure si-a facut aparitia o vulpe apoi o ursoaica tânără,un urs tânăr, un urs foarte mare, o ursoaica cu pui ( puiul adorabil ) si inca o vulpe. Ghidul nostru Tiberiu ne-a explicat multe lucruri interesante despre modul acestora de viață.
Bear watching experience was good
Bear watching experience was good. We were lucky to see a bear. Our guide Robert was nice and very knowledgeable.
Great experience
Our experience with Active Travel was great. Our guide was very patient and very nice and the landscape is wonderful. We recommend it.
Unique experience
If you want to connect with nature without disturbing wildlife in a really intimate way this is your best bet in the Brasov region. We saw 5-6 bears and a curious fox passing in front of us doing their thing. They didn’t beg for food, they didn’t do tricks. They were simply at home. I would do it again!
Excursión Sighisoara/viscri/Rupea
Charlie is absolutely brilliant. We had a wonderful day with him. His recommendations were fantastic, and he taught us a lot about the history of the towns we visited and of Romania. We're delighted. We will always recommend him.
Nice experience in canyon
The tours was very beautiful. The canyon definitely worth visiting and then the hike from the canyon was very nice as well. Marian, our guide, made the tour confortable for was. Definitely recommend it.
Exactly as advertised a great experience
A great and knowledgeable guide and genuinely a small group. And the added bonus of seeing 6 different bears. Highly recommend.
Amazing experience
We saw a lot off bears and some foxes. It was an amazing experience. I would recommend to do the tour. You can feel that the guide/company really takes care of the wellbeing of the bears and the safety of the small group. The guide had a lot of knowledge of the bears and you could ask him everything about them.
Amazing bear watching activity
We booked the bear watching activity. Everything was great organized. We were picked up in time. The great drove us in a new vehicle and drove safely to our stop. From there we walked 7min to the safe bear watching hut.
We were lucky to see 4 female bears. The guide answered all of our questions. It really was a once in a lifetime experience!
Although I was skeptical if it will be a touristy thing. It wasn’t at all and I can highly recommend doing it!
Must do in Romania
We experienced the Small Group Tour to Viscri Church Sighisoara Town Rupea Fortress
If you’re staying in Brasov make sure you take the time to visit sighisoara! What an absolute gem of Transylvania, we also visit Viscri for lunch and a visit to the fortress church which was wonderful and shows you the traditional Romania you imagine. The whole day was something from a fairytale and our guide was wonderful! Thank you Charlie for a lovely day exploring your country.
