Rainy days in Fagaras mountains

Hello Iulian. Just a short note to say how much I enjoyed my time in Romania, and especially on the Fagaras Trail with you and Jon. Thank you very much for guiding us so well. You struck the important balance between making our trek enjoyable, challenging and safe. The walking tested my fitness and my kit and we certainly experienced a full range of changeable weather conditions! A sense of humour, in-depth local knowledge, and an awareness of what is safe in the conditions are all important on the mountains and you demonstrated all of the… (>>>)

Hiking trip in Bucegi and Piatra Craiului mountains

Had the most amazing 4 days of trekking with Horia. He was an incredible guide and an all-around great guy. Our route took us through some of the most beautiful scenery I have ever seen and I can’t wait to go back to Romania and do it again. I recommend Iulian’s business to everyone I know!

Explore Romanian mountains, Bucegi and Bran county hills

Here a small testimonial on our hiking tour in sept ’16 where we traversed Bucegi mountains, from Ialomita valley to Moeciu de Sus mountain village, then to Simon mountain village ending in Bran village / castle. Those places are very picturesque and reminded us somewhat of Hobbit country. As already mentioned in other posts by other clients we also appreciated very much the professionalism of Iulian who organised the trekking and also was our guide. We would recommend his services to everybody who is interested in exploring a regio… (>>>)

Walking Irish ladies in Romania

After a brief but impressive trip with Iulian in 2008 in the Bucegi mountains I vowed to return to Romania for a longer trip sometime. I finally got to do so last week. We are just back from a wonderful week’s hiking in the Bucegi mountains with Iulian. Iulian is a professional and knowledgeable guide. His knowledge of the mountains, the culture, the people and the way of life in Romania made our trip really enjoyable. His love and appreciation of his country is inspirational. His photography leaves us with a wonderful catalogue of … (>>>)

Israeli trail runners in Romania

באוגוסט 2016 יצאנו עם הרבה חששות והתרגשות שישה חברים לטיול ריצה בהרי רומניה. כולנו רצים מנוסים במרוצי עיר אך עם מעט ניסיון בריצות שטח ועוד פחות ניסיון בריצה בתוואי הררי. לאחר מספר בירורים יצרו קשר עם מספר מדריכים מקומיים אחד מהם היה יוליאן – מדריך טיולים מקומי שיושב בעיר ברשוב. מהמייל הראשון עשה יוליאן רושם מקצועי ורציני מאד. רושם שרק הלך והתחזק עם התקדמות התכנון של הטיול. הטיול תוכנן כך שיכלול ארבעה ימי ריצה מתגלגלים בהרי פגראש, במהלכם החלפנו מספר מלונות, נדרשנו למספר הקפצות רכב וכלל לינה ואוכל במקומות שונים לאורך המסלול, כל התאומים והתכ… (>>>)

Romania trail running experience, Bucegi mountains

In August 2016 we went out six friends with a lot of fear and excitement on a trip to the mountains of Romania. We are all experienced “city runners” but with little trail running experience and even less mountainous running experience. After a number of inquiries we made contact with several local guides one of them was Julian – A local tour guide that sits in the city of Brasov. From the first mail Julian seem very serious and professional. This impression only grew stronger with the progress of the planning of the trip.

The trip was plann… (>>>)

American guests, hiking in Romania

Our 6 day, 5 night trekking adventure in Romania was fantastic. Iulian picked a good route for us to see different parts of the Carpathian mountains. Every day we enjoyed beautiful scenery and great vistas. One of the highlights of the experience was our guide, Iulian. He is very knowledgeable and was clearly excited to share both the beautiful Romanian landscape and the wonderful culture with our family. He accommodated our every need and his easy going nature made him an absolute pleasure to spend time with. We have been on many guide… (>>>)

Mon père adorait les Carpartes

Curieuse d’apprendre plus sur la région où mon père a grandi, je voyageais une deuxième fois en Transylvanie, cette fois ci avec mon conjoint qui adore les montagnes et les aventures. J’ai contacté Iulian pour demander de l’aide car pour moi c’était la première fois que je faisais une randonnée dans la montagne. Il a proposé un tour de 3 jours. Nous avons passé 10 jours en Transylvanie avec la famille et des amis de Boița. Puis le jour du depart à la montagne est arrivé. Horia est venu nous chercher à Boița pour aller à Avrig où nous avons lais… (>>>)

My dad loved the Carpathian mountains – Belgium hikers in Romania

Wanting to learn more about the region my father grew up, I travelled once more to Transylvania, this time with my partner who loves mountains and adventures. Since it was the first time for me to do a hike, I contacted Iulian and asked for help. We agreed on a 3-day trip in the Făgăraș Mountains.

We spend 10 days in Transylvania by ourself with family and friends from Boița. Then the big day of departure in the mountains was there…

Horia picked us up in Boița and we went to Avrig where we left the car and started to climb up to Cabana Bârcaciu. G… (>>>)
