Bucharest Safari Tours 2024/2025

“A wonderful holiday based in the beautiful, remote, rural village of Magura. The village is accessed via a long, winding unmade road so get used to a bumpy ride. If you get out of the van immediately after you leave the tarmac it will take approximately 45 - 50 minutes to walk up hill to Villa Hermani through the woods - follow the bright pink paint splodges on rocks or trees. Transylvania is like stepping back in time, where local people still travel via horse and cart and cut hay with scythes, although they will be on their mobiles as mobile signals, 3 & 4G and WiFi are readily available. Romania is home to many European brown bears and seeing them from a hide in the forest was one of the highlights of our trip. In addition to the walking there is a visit to Bran Castle which was given to Queen Maria of Romania in 1918, and to the delightful city of Brasov.”

“This trip is good mixture of walking and relaxation. Romania is certainly off the beaten track for most Brits but it's certainly worth a look. This trip to Transylvania includes several walks through stunning country-side and is a mixture of long walks (8 hrs) and shorter (3hr) "strolls". There's plenty of time for admiring the scenery.”

“Lovely, friendly local people and countryside. Great fun with the group with lots of laughs and banter. Udu was an excellent tour leader, very knowledgeable and with good sense of humour. Comfortable and friendly hotel.”
