What you can expect

Pure adventure, culture, and relaxation!
Travel with us in a VIP minibus with a small group through the adventure land of Romania!
The land of myths and legends…

We travel from the Banat to Transylvania, to breathtaking gorges, pass through the mighty Iron Gate on the Danube by boat, visit the millennia-old Roman spa town of Baile Herculane in the wild Cerna Valley mountains, visit imposing fortresses, old towns and ruins, roam through the last primeval beech forests in Europe, sample the ancient Romanian wine culture in the private wine estate, visit the Râmeț Monastery and the amazing ice cave of Scarisoara in the unique Apuseni Mountains, visit perhaps the most impressive salt mine in the world, including an underground lake and amusement park, and always relax in a private guesthouse with a panoramic pool and a dreamlike view.
