      Transylvania Castle Tour
      We had an excellent day touring in Transylvania with our guide Istvan. The castles were amazing and we enjoyed the cultural and historical context he provided even more. It really helped us understand the complicated background of this area. We highly recommend this tour.

      A fantastic trip with beatifull views and millions of blooming wild flowers. And a fantastic guide.
      This is a fantastic trip. The views on the mountains are amazing. And we have never seen so many blooming wild flowers in our life. The mountain meadows in June are full with then. Istvan is a very good driver, even on the smallest and steepest paths. And he knows a lot. About the history, local traditions, ecology, biology, geology, the Szekler culture and other things. He speaks fluently English, German, Hungarian and Rumanian. A trip to remember.

      A must stop if passing!
      This lake is a very strange sight to behold, with the trees that are growing out of it !! Worth a look or a nice walk depending on the weather.

      Amazing hiking experience through beautiful Romania
      We did the Bicaz Gorges and Red Lake tour. It was really amazing experience, very well organised, the tour guide Istvan was very friendly, he knows the paths very well and shared a lot of interesting information during the hike. The tours are adapted to your level of physical condition, which is great! Would warmly recommend!

      Great views, amazing guide
      During our Romanian road trip we had the pleasure to stop in Tusnad and spent a marvellous day with our guide, Istvan. His passion and love of nature and the area are obvious from the first moment you meet him. He did such a great job in not only explaining the particularities of the volcanic landscape but also making us feel at ease, relaxed and curious to discover more. If you're in the area, I would HIGHLY recommend reaching out to Carpathian escapes and checking out their extensive offer of activities. We wish we had more time to spend there!

      Excellent experience
      We had a great offroad experience with Carpathian Escapes. Our host Istvan was an amazing driver and guide, giving us all the details of the places we visited. The area is quite amazing (the hills, the views, the people). It was really worth traveling from Bucharest to try this experience.

      Discovering a magical land
      We had a lovely time in August visiting volcano land on e-bikes. Istvan picked us up from our hotel and brought us back there safely. He is very knowledgeable about the region`s history and geophysics, but he is also a very nice person and very pleasant to hang out with. The scenery is spectacular and I we were very impressed both by the lake and by the tinov. It was a wonderful experience and we hope to come back soon. We recommend the region and this tour in particular to everyone that asked

      3 fantastic tours (land of volcanoes, offroad experience & food and crafts)
      We booked 3 tours in 3 consecutive days in Harghita and Covasna counties and had a fantastic time! Our guide, Istvan, was friendly, funny and very knowledgeable! The tours are a great way to get to know the local history, way of life, traditions & crafts! And, of course, see so many breathtaking and unique sights! We definitely recommend trying the offroad experience, too. It's worth noting that the agency is open to personalizing the experiences based on your interests and the number of people in your group.

      E Bike Tour around Balvanyos
      My wife and I took an e bike adventure around Saint Anna Lake and surrounding areas. Our guide was Istvan who has supreme knowledge in every area . . history, geography, nature including all the animals and plants. What a fantastic day. He kindly took photos and videos throughout the day which are wonderful memories. The bikes were high quality and easy to use. I would urge anybody to use Carpathian Escapes, best in the business.

      Nomadic Mountain Trail Hasmas Wilderness Romania
      We booked the Nomadic Mountain Trail Hasmas Wilderness Romania via FARandRide. It was the best trail we ever made, we felt being part of the family. The service from Far and Ride including our guide Istvan was super.
