I booked a day trekking trip for myself and my son to see the beauty of the Carpathians  mountains. We certainly were not disappointed, our guide Mihai was first class in every way and gave us a detailed safety talk before we commenced then pointed out the amazing flora and forna along the way. All in all probably the highlight of our trip to Brasov

The hike is a great way to stay within your ability level and still see and experience some amazing scenery. Our guide was so knowledgeable and generous it was value add on value add. Not only a great way to appreciate the natural environment, but also the history and culture of a unique people and their country.

Andreea gave us the best tour we've ever had in our lives. The route was breathtaking and with the best sceneries we've seen, but most of all, she was so knowledgeable, approachable, friendly and patient. She made us feel not only safe, but inspired and confident. We learned so much about the Carpathians, Romania and so much more. We can't wait to come back to Romania and go on another hike under her guidance.

My friend and I really enjoyed this experience and it was the highlight of our trip in Romania. Isti was really great! He told us lots of interesting facts about the history of Romania and ensured we were happy the whole way through the hike. He carried our coats and water bottles which was really kind of him. He targeted the walk at our level which we appreciated. He also stopped by Bran castle so we could take photos. We would definitely recommend to others interested in booking this trip!

Our guide was Mihai who was a brilliant mountain guide. My partner had sprained his ankle a few days before and wasn't as mobile as normal but Mihai adapted the route for us with no problems and we still covered lots of ground (almost 15km which isn't bad on a sprained ankle!) and the views were stunning. Mihai gave us lots of information about the local wildlife and ways of life as we went around, but with a really nice balance of quiet to take in the beautiful scenery.

I was lucky to have a guide who tailored the all according to my physical capabilities. The tour was informative and I experienced the Romanian national parks. Communication was excellent. A great day.

We had a wonderful experience with our guide Isti. He was very friendly and welcoming and we were grateful to learn a lot about Romania from him. The views on the hike we're spectacular and we were able to go on a very fun adventurous route that included lots of climbing. This really suited what we wanted to do but there were plenty of other available routes to suit different hiking abilities. Overall it was a great experience and we would really recommend it.

Mihai was a great guide, very friendly and knowledgeable about the flora and fauna, and allowed us to go at our own pace. Overall an enjoyable day.

Excellent and friendly guides, with deep knowledge of the tour subject. A very nice concern to details and personalization make the tour very confortable, with a non commercial feeling. I was delighted and would certainly return to repeat more tours.

We had an amazing time hiking with our guide from active travel! They offered us to pick us up at out hotel in Brasov. We were asked for preferences and the tour was adapted accordingly. We were afraid to meet bears in the mountains but our guide gave us a very safe feeling. He had a lot of experience and leaded perfectly through the mountains. He even carried a rope for a more technical part of the path in case we needed more support. We passed a canyon and climbed the peak of one of the mountains. The nature was incredibly beautiful and in many areas completely untouched by humans. In general we had an unique experience, it could not have been better!

Isti was an amazing guide. He really catered to our abilities. He was very smart and shared a lot of Romania’s history with us. One of our favorite parts was sitting on the ground with a paper map while he explained the history of each region. He was very friendly and easy to talk to. We could tell he wanted to make sure we had a good hike. He knew many alternate routes to avoid the crowds. And he didn’t make us feel bad when we had to turn around sooner than he expected. He was great. We would recommend him to our friends.

The tour was great. Marion was punctual, knowledgeable, and a lot of fun! I can’t recommend this tour enough. He picked us up at our hotel and drove us to the national park. He then took us on a trail that hiked through lush forest, beautiful meadows, and amazing mountains! Halfway through the hike, we stopped at a mountain lodge and had a filling lunch. Even my wife, who is vegetarian, was stuffed from the meal and found it delicious. Also, having the ability to fill up our water bottles at the various natural springs was helpful. Marion knew a lot about the ecosystem, local culture, and was easy to talk to. His English is impeccable. He let us go at our own pace, and often gave us choices as to which trail to take, depending on our level of fatigue. We were only wearing sneakers, but never felt like we were in over our heads on the mountain. Overall, the hike was six hours, but it flew by very quickly! Thanks again, Marion!!!

Great day in the park! Mihai was able to adapt the day to fit our gear so we managed to explore part of the park, visit some local villages, and check out a nearby bat cave. He shared lots of information about Brasov, Romanian culture, and his experience as a mountaineer and guide.

Great day with Mihai. An excellent and knowledgeable guide. Strongly recommended for a safe and enjoyable trek experience if you are visiting this part of Romania. Our trek was 6hr. Quite steep ascent, to 1600+m. Chalet stop for lunch. Amazing views.

I had the 2 day Piatra Craiului hiking tour with Mihai, who is an excellent, experienced and knowledgable guide. Day 1 we had a lovely hike through meadows and woodland, mostly away from the national holiday crowds. Some lovely views and spotted some Carpathian Chamois. I spent de night in a lovely pension in Magura where I experienced rural Romania and the local cuisine. I was very well looked after by the hostess and very well fed! Day 2 hiking was superb. We had a stunning tour around the west flank of the range with extraordinarily good weather, which allowed for views for miles. I absolutely loved it and cannot wait to return.

We had an amazing day out with our guide Bogdan. Amazing views. We are not experienced hikers nor of the best fitness level. Managed to complete the route regardless. Bogdan took care of us pacing the hike to our abilities and helping us through the climbs. There are options in the routes for ability levels but it does require a minimum fitness level. Although there is food at the midway point at the hut, bring water and light snack to fuel up. A must do.

Very good Guide bogdan for the hike. Very much knowhow. Nice route trough the show covered mountains

Great hike overall! Definitely worth doing! The rock face and ridgeline of the mountain is absolutely gorgeous. Because of the snow and winter time, we didn’t get to see the sheep farm, taste local cheese and hike up to the ridgeline, which were something I was looking forward to. The price is a bit steep for the reduced activity in the winter. It would be great for active travel to adjust The description of this activity for the wintertime to reflect the snowy weather, and reduced activities so people are aware when they book it and don’t show up in sneaks like we did 😂. Our tour guide was great. He provided us hiking poles which saved our life. He is very knowledgeable about the mountain and is well conversed.

I can't think of a single complaint. It is clear they're experts from the informed, accommodating, and good-spirited tour. I would easily recommend this to anyone wanting to experience the beautiful mountains surrounding Brasov.

Great trip with a great guide! Thanks Bogdan for the tour. Tailored the route to our experience level and the weather conditions and shared some great knowledge of the area. Beautiful scenery on the route and well organised. Thanks!
