I am in the tourism business since 1997 when I contributed to one of the main projects promoting Romania as a cultural tourist destination. Since 2004, I am running CT&T which provides private and tailor made cultural tours in Romania for individuals and for small groups as well. My expertise in the organization of cultural tours (private guided tours) has been acknowledged by tourists from all over the world and authors of widely read guidebooks like the Lonely Planet, Fodor's, Frommers, Routard, Michelin or Bucharest in Your Pocket. I'm ready to meet all your demands that address heritage tourism in Romania and to adjust my programs to reach the highest levels of customer satisfaction. I provide quality services, proven by the reviews and letters of many satisfied visitors who fell in love with Romania after coming on tours I have helped organize. Come as a tourist, leave as a friend! Romanian Ministry of Tourism License # 3303 Tour Guide License #5307

Overview of your Bucharest tour

This tour is proposed to visitors who wish to see the most important sights in Transylvania and Wallachia, usually those who are visiting Romania for the first time, starting from Bucharest, the capital city, once called the Little Paris of the East. Peles Castle at Sinaia, the former summer royal residence in German Renaissance style, will open our visits in the countryside. We will drive through the medieval Transylvania to visit towns like Brasov, Sighisoara, or Sibiu, fortified churches of Biertan and Prejmer (UNESCO World Heritage Sites) or the famous castles Bran (related Dracula's legend) and Hunyady (Corvinesti). Alba Iulia (Alba Carolina) the former Habsburg capital of Transylvania will complete the tour of the best sites in Transylvania. This is your best way to discover the daily life of people in the countryside, enjoying the drive through the gently rolling hills and the Transylvanian Alps with its magnificent Transfagarasan mountain road and the best company of an experienced tour guide.
