What is Travellers’ Choice?
Tripadvisor gives a Travellers’ Choice award to accommodations, attractions and restaurants that consistently earn great reviews from travellers and are ranked within the top 10% of properties on Tripadvisor.
An adventure of a lifetime, for this 8-day tour of Romania we have chosen an assortment of rich sensory experiences, from medieval sites to a taste of the wilderness, with deep forests, vibrantly colored wildflowers and fresh mountain air (in the right season), all the way to modern exhibits, and a dash of traditional herbs and spices with the delicious foods we will be trying in every medieval town we visit. There will be a lot of driving with a lot of funny stories :) It’s the best way to understand Romania and the Romanians!

          Perfect Bucharest tour
          We had a 4-hours Bucharest tour with Razvan and we really enjoyed the Village Museum, Romanian Atheneum and, of course, the Parliament Palace. Romania has a great history and it was really well presented by Razvan. Thanks!

          Forget about it.
          I'm writing this as I have left the city. If you like being greeted by an obnoxious tour guide that lies about your whereabouts, this is for you,. What did I learn on the tour? Bucharest does not suffer from earthquakes do to soil composition, what about 1977 which was devastating? The Orient Express has increased since reducing prices to the general public. I never thought that Euro 12,000 per person was a reasonable price. I could go on but thought I would share some thoughts. The tour was fabulous but the lack of knowledge was underwhelming

          Everything was perfect.
          I decided to take this tour with some friends because we booked before some tours at this company and we were very satisfied with the services provider. It was a great tour, we had a lot of fun and the guid was a very well prepared and punctual man. We were fascineted by the landscapes and I think Romania is a great country with wonderful people, delicious food and amazing history. Thise 13 days were not enough for me and my friends although we visited a lot and the guid gave us all the information, we want to return because all was great. I was fascineted by Rm. Vâlcea a small town in Romania with a lot of monestaries, we passed through it when we went to Sibiu, Nicolas was very nice and explained us the great history of this city I think Ostrov Monestery is the most wonderful monestary form the world. I also liked very much Sibiu, Sighisoara and Brașov. It was a great tour and we recomand you this company. An amazing tour😍

          Long day but worth it
          This was a really good trip. Our driver and guide, Alex, was fantastic. He arrived to pick us up exactly on time and the car was clean, comfortable and air conditioned. Alex spoke very good English and was happy to chat about life in Romania as well as giving us a history lesson. The bears sanctuary was a very good trip and I would recommend it, the cost of your ticket goes towards the rescue and upkeep of these beautiful animals. There are also some amazing views of the mountains from the road up to the sanctuary. We went to Bran castle because we wanted to see the building that Bram Stoker had based Dracula's castle on, and we were glad that we did that but be prepared there is a long queue to get in and once you are inside it's like being on the London Underground in rush hour. There is a market outside selling Chinese made plastic Dracula tat. Worth avoiding. Brasov City is lovely, especially after Bran, it's worth having a walk around, we also visited the Black Church which was interesting. Our whole day was made more interesting by our guide Alex who was very knowledgable about all of the sites that we visited, he also knew the area that we were travelling through so we were able to see much more of the scenery and avoid the busiest roads. During the trip Alex was asking us what we had seen in Bucharest and on the way back extended our trip to show us some of the things that we had missed. I would recommend this trip and you will be very lucky if you get Alex as your guide.

          Great service
          We had a group of 5 with multiple suticases. I ordered this private van the night prior to our arrival in Bucharest. Our driver arrived promptly and waiting for us with a electronic sign. The van was new and clean. Driver was very friendly and informative. It was a 30 minute drive to our hotel from the airport. Overall pleasant and efficient experience.

          Bucharest in Half a Day
          Our guide Dan Mica was excellent. He paced the tour to our needs and provided the detailed historical and cultural background. He is also a safe driver and an excellent communicator. His encyclopedic knowledge of Romania is very helpful in getting a deeper insight of the country .

          Discovering Bucharest
          July 2023. My brother and I planned a trip to Romania to visit the country from where our grandparents came. Due to a flight delay, I missed the morning portion of the tour. Nicolas started the tour with my brother and was kind enough to reorganize the tour route to pick me up from the airport to continue the afternoon portion of our tour. Nicolas was truly a pleasure as our host and guide as he shared his endless knowledge and love for Romania with us. He also recommended a great restaurant for dinner where we dined on and watched traditional Romanian food and dancing. I hope to return to explore more of Romania again. I would not hesitate to recommend booking with Nicolas Experience Tours. Thank you Nicolas for a memorable experience. Gina C

          Endless apreciation for the best guide
          A great tour, we saw the Endless Column and I was fascineted. Our guid explained us and I learnt a lot of new things, a very smart guide. I have to recognize that I always dream to visit this woderful city and to see the Brâncuși objects of art and this tour was amazing. Nicolas made us a surprise and we also visit Tismana Church and the BNR treasure.I will book another tour with them, they are the best.

          A great company
          It was a great tour! I visited recently Bucharest with my friends and we wanted to walk and learn more about this city. The driver and the guide came and took us from the hotel which was in the center of Bucharest, they asked us what we want to see and spoke us about the history of this city. I learnt a lot about this city from them. They were vey nice and gave us some adivices where we can ate and what we can see. It was a great idea to book this tour!

        We found Romania Driver - Nicolas Experience Tours online while planning our vacantion to Romania. We got in touch with the owner of the company, Nicolas. He has easy to work with. He has great knowleage of the area and he made of very easy to plan everythink. Also the price of the tour was very reasonable. Upon arrival to Bucharest, we were met by our guide, Răzvan, with the biggest smile in jos face and we became friend wright away. He was very accomodating, great story teller and knew bis trade really well! Also he had a nice and clean minivan, extremy comfortable! Răzvan was always in time for pick up and he helped ia with our suitcase!
        IT was really a great time with him and we had Nice memories thanks to Răzvan. We will not look for another company for our next trip to România and I advise everyone to book with Romania Driver - Nicolas Experience Tours!
