WHY ME ? My friendly Hollywood accent, European dad jokes, my singing, energetic personality, famous Romanian myths and stories at your service. I'm specialized in organising corporate events, family trips and discovering hidden places around Romania outside the beaten path. I can sing in English, French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese and Romanian (of course). :) WHAT I BELIEVE ? Travelling through Europe, Asia and South America taught me that a direct contact with the local people, local cuisine and the places locals normally go to it's a must. Of course we're going to talk about everything and I will answer all of your questions because it's my pleasure to get to know your opinions/curiosities and to help you understand Romania. WHAT IS MY GOAL ? To make you experience an excellent holiday and tell you Romania's story in its complexity, with the ups and downs, the old and new, music, religions, ethnic diversity and all the major events that shaped the country. WHAT CAN WE DO FOR YOUR BEST EXPERIENCE ? Tell me what would you want to see and I can make an itinerary suited to your needs and schedule. If you're into golf, keep in mind that Romania has the 2nd longest PAR6 in the World. Mud volcanos ? Yes, we have those Mars-like landscapes. Roman baths, fortified citadels, gigantic salt mines, extraordinary landscapes and incredible energies. . . At the end of many tours I really enjoy to hear the best description possible: "we never expected it to be this great". Transylvania is definitely the place to discover, while Bucharest is the place to party and start/finish a tour (especially if after that your Danube cruise starts). If you like to see the main attractions in Bucharest, it's normally a 2h drive (after 20:00 o'clock or in the weekends) or a 4-5h walk around tour. Besides that, The Palace of the Parliament (the heavyest building in the World), The Village Museum, The Old City Center and The Communist Era Tour are interesting enough to worth spend some extra time in the capital. IF YOU WERE WONDERING. . . The majority of my tours are custom made - people want to see or do something in particular. So. . . ASK ME ANYTHING about any topic and we can set up the best (and most efficient) Romanian experience possible. My personal suggestion is that if you have 5 days in Romania don't spend more than 2 nights in Bucharest. . . We have a wonderful country with the Danube Delta and the Carpathian Mountains being the most appealing in terms of landscapes and wildlife, Transylvania has the best medieval heritage and Moldova (NE Romania) has its fair share of wonderful old monasteries and wineries. Also, if you look for perfect landscapes or interesting experiences (sheephearding, horseriding, mountaineering, isolated communities, etc. ) ask me. All that's left is for you to just tell me what do you want to see, feel and experience. This Romanian adventure needs to shift your travel energies into the right direction and trust me I will help you with all I can. I'm very glad you chose Romania for your next trip ! PS: don't be afraid of the "land of Dracula" - I'll keep you safe from any evil spirits, brown bears or a boring traffic. :) Certified tour and mountain guide by the Department of Tourism (badge no. 11.423) Certified sound therapy healer Certified in Basic Life Support Certified trainer for company events Driver's license for motorcycle and small vehicles/vans Certified industrial climber Engineering College degree from UPB We can take a break whenever you want if you need to smoke or a bathroom break. :) I enjoy children travellers, so they won't get bored or anything.

    My son and I had a wonderful tour with Vlad. Vlad immediately made us feel at ease with the communication prior to the tour and he even provided recommendations for dinner spots for our first night in Bucharest. Vlad was able to tweak the tour for us a bit as we were only interested in seeing the outside of Bran Castle. He knew the best spots for photos that were not...

    This is an unusual tour and we were looking for something different to do. Well, this was it! Vlad is knowledgeable about his country and especially it's nature & geography. The only warning I would give is that the hike to the caves is NOT easy. Wear hiking boots and, if possible, use trekking poles. But the hike is worth it!

    Thank you so much for making me realise that we (Europeans) see the grades a little different. I said initially that it was an easy trek because around here anything that's less than 900 ft level difference and not more than 1h of hiking we consider it a relatively easy trek. Now it's moderate for people to know that there's little bit of a push up, but fairly easy to...

    My wife and I were recently in Bucharest for a river cruise and explored Peles Castle, Bran Castle, and Brasov with Vlad C. Everything was great from the initial booking until we were dropped off at our hotel. Vlad did a great job communicating with us before the trip and picked us up at our hotel on the morning of the trip. Vlad was a wealth of information and provided...
