Best of Romania & the Danube Delta Reviews

The idea of the trip is excellent as it covers all important highlight of Romania - a couple more days would provide a better pace. Explore uses two/three star accommodation with meals at the lower level also. The guide on our trip, Horea was satisfactory, he covered all that was required in the itinerary however he has a very prickly sharp nature ...read more and was very economical with information and answers to questions. Any particular assistance required was sparing offered after reminders.

Lunch time was often combined with important sightseeing so a compromise was necessary as inadequate time was usually allowed. The itinerary is a little rushed and the choice of day to day activity often left the group with unnecessary long stints in the bus with inappropriate comfort stops. Lunch was often after 3pm having had breakfast at 7.30am! Walks should be for important sightseeing/ forest appreciation/views, not just a hard slog to say on have walked xxx km or climbed xxm. A guide with more information about wild flowers/birds would be an asset to the group. We enjoyed the trip however it could benefit from many improvements which would not be expensive.
