Hello, my name is Cristi. I am 46 years old and I was born and raised in Bucharest, the capital city of Romania and I am proud and hapy to live here. I started working as a courier and then for the past 11 years I have been in the tourism business. I did transfers and private tours in Romania and in the neighbouring Eastern European countries. I have been collaborating with most of the Romanian travel agencies and the river cruises companies that are operating on the Danube. It is a great job, I find it very exciting and rewarding. I get to be the 'ambassador' of my country and I get to meet travelers from all around the world, getting to know different cultures and mentalities. When I am not working my favourite things to do are traveling all over the world, riding motorcycles, cycling, hiking and breeding pigeons. I am a very active person, I love traveling all over the word and I spend a lot of time in the Carpathian Mountains. I am looking forward to meet you and show you my wonderful country! I have a Tourism License from the Romanian Ministry of Tourism and Transportation I am a Program Director / Cruise Manager for an American Company ,on the Danube river . Safe driver with 26 years of experience. I am not allowed to guide inside of the Palace of the Parliament

We start the day by crossing the border to Bulgaria , only 60 km, so be sure to have your passport with you. - After this we will stop in the valley of Rusenski Lom river at St Dimitri Basarabovo Rock Monastery, the place of birth of the saint who is known as the protector of Bucharest. - Afterward we visit Veliko Tarnovo also known as " City of the Tsars" once the capital of The Bulgarian Empire. The main focus point here will be Tsaravets Fortress an impressive construction that will live you breathless. - After a well-deserved lunch in a great restaurant with a panoramic view we will be heading towards Arbanassi village situated on the top of a hill, once a village for wealthy merchants and their houses can still be seen nowadays.
