I was born in Oradea city where I live now. As a child I wandered the mountain. My parents who were professors took me with them during the summer holidays in camps organized by the Ministry of Education, where we lived three months per year from June until September. Students were coming series after series. So, get accustomed with the every day routes, I memorized them so well, that the marks were useless for me. Then came the faculty, then the job and year after year I targeted the mountains one by one followed of course with a sejour in 2 May, the hippies resort on the Black Sea coast. In 2011, I 've got the opportunity to follow a course for mountain guides, travel guides and travel agents based on European funds which I graduated in 2012. This way I started the business which is a hobby for me. I think it is the best way it might be. I am licensed mountain guide, tourism guide, travel agent and tourism manager with a great experience in trekking and hiking tours from Romania.

Overview of your Oradea tour

Oradea, the Capitol City of Bihor County, is one of the important economic, social and cultural centers of north-western Romania, holding on to these characteristics throughout its history. As local passionate guide and touring agent, I would love to share the beauty of my hometown. The city is nestled among hills that divide and unify the Crisana Plains and the hill-like limits of the Apuseni Mountains in a harmonious way. Located on the Crisul Repede River which divides the city into almost equal halves, it is the gateway to Central Europe and Western Europe. Located about 10 km from Bors - the biggest border point on the western border - Oradea ranks tenth in size out of the Romanian cities. Come and join me on this tour, experiencing the fast-changing city in Romania!

We had the pleasure of having Arin P as our tour guide in Oradea, and the experience was truly remarkable. Arin P is a very well-informed guide, passionate about his work, and extremely empathetic with the participants. He presented the city in an engaging way, with many historical and cultural details, as well as stories that added extra charm to each place we visited. He knew how to create a warm and friendly atmosphere, being attentive to the needs of every group member. His patience, constant smile, and appealing way of presenting information turned the tour into a real delight. I wholeheartedly recommend any tour with Arin P– he is the kind of guide who truly makes a difference!

Arin was a friendly and knowledgeable guide. My only issue is that I wish I had had more time. The city of Oradea has some beautiful places: the buildings, the churches, and the synagogues have very interesting histories, which Arin knew all about. A great experience.
