They were very nice and helpful with good communication. They had the only "the bear sanctuary" trip that wasn't packaged with many other things. So I was glad to find a trip to only see the bears.

Having Dan drive us to and from the LiBEARty Sanctuary in Zarnesti was a delightful, comfy, laid back and informative experience. Even more so for foreigners, I'd say, as Dan gladly offers insight on local wildlife, history and sightseeing. And with the trip lasting about 45 minutes one way, it most certainly leaves you wanting to find out more ;-) . The Sanctuary itself is a successful tale of wildlife enthusiasts battling against indifference, meanness, even outright animal cruelty, and managing to raise awareness and hint to a brighter future. Visitors get to hear a collection of sad to outrageous stories that today's Sanctuary residents (mainly bears, but also wolves, deer, turtles, even domestic animals) have gone through, some of which may leave one wondering who's the actual beast. Yet, at the end of the 1.5 hr expertly guided tour (of about one quarter of the Sanctuary) you're left with an overall positive feeling that something can be done, and is actually done. Hats off to all those involved!Sammac101

10/10! Would highly recommend this to anyone and everyone. Our driver Dan was talkative, friendly and knowledgable about Romanian history, culture and current events. He was passionate about the welfare and wellbeing of the bears, the purpose and mission of the sanctuary and also had some tips and recommendations for other places to visit and eat whilst in Brasov. This trip exceeded my expectations and proved to be worth every penny spent, knowing that the majority of the money goes straight to the bear sanctuary. Dalia our tour guide at the sanctuary was quirky and knowledgable and had excellent knowledge of each individual bear along with its history and back story. The gift shop had home made unique items that we couldn’t resist. A highly recommended experience for anyone visiting Brasov or the Transylvanian region. Thankyou very much.Cheryl B

Dan was great! He told me all about the bears. I learned so much, not just about brown bears, but also about life in Romania. He's friendly and knowledgeable. I highly recommend this tour.
