    We took this tour as a family with our two teenage kids. The mix of historical sites, cultural experiences, and natural beauty kept all of us engaged.The hotels were comfortable, the transport was smooth, and we always had enough time to explore on our own. Special thanks to our guide, Marko, who made everything so much fun! Would definitely do it again.”

    I was a bit hesitant about joining a group tour as a solo traveler, but everything worked out well. The itinerary was well thought out. I particularly loved Sighisoara – walking through its colorful streets felt like stepping back in time. The group was diverse and friendly, all in all, an enjoyable experience. If you love history and culture, this is the perfect tour.

    This tour was an absolute dream! From the majestic castles of Transylvania to the beautifuč Budapest and the historical richness of Belgrade, every day brought something new and exciting. Our guide Urosh was incredibly knowledgeable. Good balance between sightseeing and free time. Bran Castle and Peles Castle were definitely the highlights for us. Highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to experience Eastern Europe.
