Reservamos de última hora e foi um acerto. Nunca vi nada parecido com Brasov. Não é o mais barato, mas se justifica. O almoço foi simples para a duração do dia. Recomendaria a qualquer um que visite Bucarest.

Repetiría sin dudar
Muy recomendable, sin vueltas. La coordinación fue puntual y todo estuvo organizado. Se puede hacer tranquilo sin estar en estado físico. Aprovechamos guía turístico profesional que ofrece comentarios y asistencia durante todo el recorrido más de lo que pensábamos. Muy recomendable para cualquier edad.

Could not have gone better. Of the whole route, Sinaia is what I remember most. Not the cheapest, but justified. Highly recommended.

Mucho mejor de lo que imaginaba. Lo de breve parada en el casco antiguo de Brasov con tiempo libre estuvo muy bien pensado. Muy buen guía, atento con todo el grupo y con paciencia infinita. Si están por Bucarest, no se lo pierdan.
