My wife and I would like to second Harriet Hughes’ warm endorsement (Nov. ’05, pg. 93) of Cristian Florea of Crif Tours (phone 40 722 606 610, e-mail remtours@digicom.ro or visit www.discoverromania.ro). We traveled through Romania with Cris on a modified “Classic Tour of Romania” in October ’04. The cost for two was €3,190 (near $3,839), land only.
We have been fortunate in our journeys overseas with tour guides and have had many fine experiences. Cris was definitely one of the best guides we ever had.
He was extremely competent handling travel duties. His knowledge of Romania is deep, genuine and heartfelt. He is also a great guy and an interesting storyteller (with a knowledge of bad jokes that puts me to shame). He knows when to talk and when not to talk, besides, and it was a pleasure to pass through Romania with him.
Romania is a friendly country truly worth visiting. It’s especially beautiful in the fall with its wonderful foliage.
