Open air cafes abound, so when your feet get tired, relax and people watch in one of the city's lively squares. A trip up Mt Tâmpa is a must for incredible views of Brasov below; whether you choose to hike or take the cable car is up to you!

| Tour Guide Legal Requirements |
If the nature of the tour is that the guide is 'interpreting the cultural and natural heritage of an area', Romania requires the guide have a guiding license. A person giving tours such as the 'best nightlife spots', 'shopping and fashion tour' or 'restaurant tour' for example, does not require a license. This definition follows the European standard for tour guiding (CEN).
Licensed Tourist Guides are the only professionals permitted to conduct tours in all sites and museums within a city. Licensed guides are required in those areas where the local authorities state that one of them is mandatory. There are freelance guides which have a small business and conduct tours/ guide visitors without having a license. This is not illegal as long as they are registered with the city/county tax department.
To become a Licensed Tourist Guide, candidates must pass an examination given by the local public tourist authorities. report error
All ToursByLocals guides have met our ToursByLocals Guide Requirements which includes warranting that they can legally give the tours they offer. |
