9 fantastic days with Florin! Travels through Bulgaria , Romania and Hungary were very spacious & comfortable in his large passenger van, we named “Bluey!” Florin is very knowledgeable with the history of the castle & citadels & the beautiful cities we got to explore. We began to feel like he was more a friend / younger brother than tour guide! We shared dinners together, stories of places we’ve traveled & yet to visit! He was mindful of my getting carsick, stopped at all the best gas stations for restroom, coffee, & a coke! Oh and lots of stops if I wanted a photo of flowers!!! Also, found me the best asiago cheese bread for snacks on the road trip between cities!
Florin is the “BEST TOUR GUIDE” in our experience! We hit 71 while on this trip. Already talking with him about our next adventure! He only works with top notch drivers & local guides if he needs someone with more expertise of a city than he.
Hotel Reviews
The Yantra Hotel was in the heart of Veliko Tarnovo and was very luxurious. We loved our stay there.
Florin booked us at the Noblesse Boutique Hotel which was very clean. We enjoyed our stay there and had no problems.
The Hotel Tresor le Palais in Timisoara was extremely nice and upscale. We had a great stay there.
Activity Reviews
Florin heard me say I collect rock everywhere we go, especially ones that are shaped like a heart! When we came down from exploring the castle, he handed me a rock that had a heart on the rock!
Florin took us on a city tour of Bucharest and specifically catered to our interests in the communist history of the country. We even visited Ceausescu's mansion which was fascinating!
Florin took us to Sibiu and we were amazed by the beautiful, storybook-like village. We really enjoyed our time there.
Florin picked us up from the airport and gave us a tour of Sofia. He was very attentive and informative, making it a great start to our trip.
The Citadel of Veliko Tarnovo was fabulous! The town is built into a mountain and is full of quaint stores and restaurants. We really enjoyed our time there.
Dear Michelle and Threy (William ),
It was a pleasure to meet you and thank you for your kind words.
It means a lot to me coming from you (after 71 private tours)
Hopefully, we are going to meet again sometime in the future.
Have a great summer,
Florin
