    This was a great tour showcasing so many of the wonderful sights of Romania. Highlights were the steam train trip, the painted monasteries and the Danube delta. Horea was an excellent guide, adding in a couple of surprises along the way!

    I loved the 2-night trip on the Danube Delta. In addition, I loved the rustic guesthouse. the Popas Turistic Hotel in Buck bona deserves 2 nights. The whole trip was excellent.

    Really enjoyed the walks, although the pace was a bit of a struggle at times. Romania exceeded my expectations as regards beauty and diversity. Everyone was very friendly.

    I would like to see a similar trip spread over more days. We passed several things, including fortified churches, that we would like to have seen. The outdoor museum at Bucharest deserves more than 1 hour! If we had been offered the chance of a later flight home, or an extra day, we would have taken it.
