This trip truly lets you experience rural Romanian life, while still having the balance of a bustling metro city-travel as well. I feel very satisfied with how much I was able to see/experience in both Romania and Bulgaria, which I most likely would not have been able to do if I was travelling on my own. Our guide Nicoletta was PHENOMENAL, seriously she made the trip 10x more amazing - thank you Nicoletta!!
