One of their favorite snack is the Langos, a deep fried bred dough topped with cheese and sour cream as savory or powdered sugar/jam as sweet snack. We always recommend Alte Post Restaurant where delicious traditional food is served.

Our tour guide was on time, friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. In Sighisoara, he took us down seldom trodden pathways which we would have missed on our own. This is what you want out of a tour guide!!!

Although not that much advertised on the Internet, the places included in this tour are absolutely worth visiting! Thanks to Active Travel we discovered these UNESCO patrimony gems and thanks to our guide Tiberiu we learned a lot about Romania, its history and its local culture! Highly recommended!

We had two day trips on successive days with Charlie, and both were fun, informative and a genuine pleasure. He is a kind, thoughtful, knowledgeable and funny guide, and we thoroughly enjoyed everything we saw thanks to his sustained effort and care. Highly recommended.
