Romania Tours in Summer

The Balkans are an under-appreciated part of the world and are absolutely stunning. Well worth the visit, especially for those who have traveled all over the world. The tour director was fluent in the local languages as well as English and extremely knowledgeable about the entire region. He kept the tour organized and yet flexible. The local guides were uniformly excellent, fluent in English, and knew more about their cities than they could convey.

I wish Goran were my Travel Director for every organized tour. Goran’s professionalism is second to none. He is exceptionally experienced and possesses extensive knowledge of both the Balkan region and travel in general. Throughout this long journey, he did everything one would expect from a travel director — and more. He consistently communicated activities clearly, both verbally and in writing, and thoughtfully reminded tour members of important details at every stop. Goran’s knowledge and personal stories about the Balkans made this trip truly unforgettable. We even nicknamed him “Prof. G.” Prof. G provided insightful background information — through both his talks and carefully selected, relatively neutral documentaries — for each country we visited. His explanations of the region’s complex history brought clarity and context to much of what we later saw and heard from the local specialists. Goran is also an incredibly caring person. I truly believe he went above and beyond to ensure that everyone had a smooth, enjoyable, and memorable experience.

A great way to visit and experience wonderful Romania! The tour team - Elena, Lisa and Geo - were exceptional, ensuring the entire trip went smoothly, everyone had exactly what they needed to enjoy the experience and got the most out of the week. It was great to have tour leaders who were so knowledgeable about history, culture, geography, who were passionate about guiding and sharing their love of Romania and cycling, and had very good English, as well as being fun to travel with. The scenery was wonderful and the route ensured that each day we saw something special, as well as being away from traffic and able to really appreciate the countryside, and villages and towns. I would highly recommend this tour.

An amazing trip, and Rux, our guide, was exceptional! Don’t expect much downtime, but you will see some amazing sights and (hopefully) bears (I did!). The scenery is incredible, but be prepared for some long bus journeys.

Varied long weekend, with highlights being the morning hike up behind the homestay. The scenery was beautiful. Also lucky to see three bears from the hide which I will never forget. I enjoyed the free time in Brasov to explore the beautiful city.

The first Blue-Roads tour we have done and we were not disappointed. Small group, wonderful guide and bus driver and all activities were timed well and suitable for the age group. A couple of people had different mobility problems but the guide accomodate their needs with ease. Guide was knowledgeable and approachable at all times and was extremely passionate about Romania
