Beautiful, peaceful spot to watch for Bears - I went on the Brown Bear watching experience with friends on September 15th, our guide was Tiberiu and he was very friendly, helpful and full of great knowledge and interesting bear stories. It was a lovely walk up through the woods to the bear hut, where Tiberiu showed us wild pig tracks, bear paw prints and areas of hibernation for the bears. Although we didnt see any bears this time, the hut was very peaceful, relaxing and a beautiful spot where we saw lots of wildlife so we all had a very nice time. We would highly recommend this tour.

Bear Bohemia - Superb. A must do in Brasov. We saw 5 bears and were lucky enough to see a Mama Bear with cub. Our guide, Robert, said that was a first for him. Guide was superb and passionate as anything about Romanian wildlife. Just do this people.

Got lucky - We were lucky enough to actually see some bears in the shelter within the 90 minutes. Of course, there is no guarantee of that. It's great that there's no encroachment on the bear habitat. However, I would have expected more information about the bears from the guide. He was very succinct, told little of himself and answered only questions.

Recommended - There were six of us on the road and we saw three brown bears and a fox. You can observe the animals very well and relatively close but because of the disc not take perfect photos.
