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
