Wonderful nature experience - Excellent guide. Great information about history and current life in Romania. The tour was good but I do not appreciate the demands for longer feedback to complete the review

Awesome experience - The area is truly a natural wonder, with its vast wetlands, lush forests, and abundance of wildlife. Delta is a paradise for bird watchers, with more than 300 species of birds living in the delta. The tour guides were knowledgeable and friendly, and I learned a lot about the area. I would highly recommend a visit to the Danube Delta for anyone looking for a unique and unforgettable experience.

A good day in Danube Delta - A wonderful day in which I visited a fantastic place. I had heard a lot about the Delta but I didn't think I could get so close to the birds I only saw on TV. I felt like I was back in the heart of nature

Super - The 4 hours spent in the Danube Delta were fantastic. We left Tulcea at speed on the Danube, then we entered the small canals where I go more and more slowly, when we reached the small canals we drove very slowly for an hour and a half. We caught many birds in their natural habitat. Had a local fish lunch in a surprising location. It was superb!

More birds at home - Our guide was great as far as hotel pick up explaining the history of Romania. Disappointed as far as seeing birds. All the boat operators use the same canal so all the animals go somewhere else. Expensive and long drive from Bucharest. Everyone goes to the same restaurant. Not really a fisherman 's house. Same menu carp,fish,soup. Drinks extra.

Great day - Sebastian Is a wealth of Romain history as a University graduate in history. His prompt pick up at our hotel seperated him from the other guides.
