We enjoyed our day with Ramona as she showed us round the pretty Saxon town of Sighisoara & Viscri village and told us many interesting things and stories about them. Ramona was a great tour guide and looked after us well and always ensured we were enjoying our day. We sampled langos for lunch on her recommendation and they were delicious! She also picked us some green walnuts and plums along the way which were lovely! We really appreciated her answering our many questions about life in Romania - both now and in the past - and thankfully she didn't seem to mind this 😆 We did 3 different tours with 3 different tour companies while we were in Brasov and Ramona was the best tour guide we had! So knowledgeable and ensured we had a great tour. Thank you Ramona for a great day!Our driver Rado took us to see beautiful little villages in Transylvania. The scenery was beautiful, the churches a delight and Rado's driving and explanations of Romanian life were excellent.
