We were short on time and wanted to see as much of the country as we could, so hired Florin to take us on day trip from Brasov to see "The 3 Castle Tour", the next day we were driven to Sighisoara and the following day drove us to Sibiu. Our final day was also jammed packed with sights and experiences and timed just right to end up in the afternoon in Brasov to catch our bus to the airport. We saw so many wonderful things, Florin was very patient and knowledgeable on all things, didn't mind talking on any subject and never seemed to tire!! The days were long, the legs ached from climbing stairs but it was all worth while. Florin made our short trip to Transylvania very memorable, his driving was good, very punctual and a lovely person. When organizing, Florin was prompt to answer any queries and made suggestions when necessary, all the details of the tour we left up to him, we just organized our own accommodation and transport to and from Brasov. We were originally going to use public transport but so glad that we 'found' Florin and had such a wonderful time exploring the area and seeing things which would not have been possible without a private guide!! Excellent trip

We took a 4-he walking tour of Brasov with Florin. He was very knowledgeable and gave us a great overview of the city while providing historical and architectural context for Brasov and the whole region. He also provided helpful tips about other sites we could visit on our own. A very worthwhile tour!

It was our first time in Brașov, also our first time with a tour guide. We had a great day with Florin, he was very knowledgeable and clearly passionate about Brașov and its history. We enjoyed our tour thoroughly and, although we weren't so vocal, he managed to mix history, local knowledge and personal stories to keep us entertained and engaged. We would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Brașov.

He was nice, but perfunctory. We checked the boxes and learned a bit. His car was clean and he drove safely on the crazy roads. He knew the area well.
However, he wasn’t proactive with checking in with us. Things like restrooms, lunch (nothing seemed to be planned to allow for time), taking pictures, or car temp. He just didn’t ask.

I booked a tour with Florin to see the most of the region during my short stay in Brasov. It was an excellent choice. For a little surcharge we added the fortified churched of Prejmer and Harman before we started the scheduled Bran Castle Tour (with Ghimbav and Cristian churches, Bran castle, Rasnov citadel, Poiana Brasov and two nice viewpoints of the city of Brasov). The guide was very good, knowledgeable and friendly. It would not have been possible to have as many highlights included in a day trip without a guide who knew so much about his home region. The Harman (Honigberg) fortified chuch was especially a good choice. Very nice church and museum! So for me it was a perfect day which ended after 8 1/2 hours with many experiences of Romanian and Saxon culture and history and lots of nice pictures. I would highly recommend this tour guide for your activities in Brasov and Transsilvania!

Florin met us off the train at Sinaia and took us to Brasov via the key sights including Peles and Bran Castle. On another full day he took us to much less touristy locations including a secret church, a water mill where flour is made, and a place where carpets are made and cleaned - really stunning 'real' places.
Florin was informative and very helpful and knew the shortcuts to avoid the worst of any traffic jams.
We would thoroughly recommend.

We really enjoyed our day with Florin on the Transfagarasan Road. It is a very beautiful and interesting part of Romania. The road is treacherous. If I had been driving, I would have missed most of the scenery. Florin knows the road and region well, and he is an enthusiastic and accommodating guide. We will recommend Florin and this tour to our friends.

I went on the Fortified Churches, Bran Castle, Rasnov Fortress and Poiana Brasov Resort Tour with Florin and had a great time. First of all, Florin is very accommodating and he was willing to tailor the tour to best fit my needs. At one point I saw an interesting church that wasn't part of the tour, and he even stopped and gave me a tour of that! Secondly, the tour had a nice, leisurely pace and it never felt rushed or unmanageable. I had more than enough time to walk around, take pictures and ask questions.

Florin offers great tours at reasonable prices. I hope to visit Brasov again in the future and I am glad I now know a good tour guide in the region.

Romania is a most beautiful place – even more than I expected, to be honest – and through using Florin we got to see more of it than we would have otherwise managed.

We used Florin for 5 days of our trip. He put together an interesting itinerary for us. For example, some of the fortified churches we saw were off the beaten track, and opened for our visit. This meant we got to look round with only us there.

While we saw a lot of places, the pace was just right. We had the time we needed to really experience everywhere we went, whilst still fitting everything in.

Florin is very kind and looked after us very well.
We will definitely be going back.
