Wat een geweldige trekking! Alles tot in de puntjes voorbereid, de wandelingen perfect op ons niveau afgesteld, mooie locaties om te slapen en nog mooiere wandelingen. En dat met een geweldige gids, Horia, die ons niet enkel goed liet zweten bij het hillwalking maar evengoed kon uitwijden over de politieke en financiele situatie in Roemenië of over de ingrediënten van ciorba (lekkere Roemeense soep). Absolute topervaring! Ik kan Iulian en Horia aan iedereen aanbevelen die van plan is Roemenië te ontdekken. Je zal er zeker geen spi… (>>>)

Great Trekking ! Everything was nicely arranged, the hikes perfectely matched our level, beautiful hostels and even more beautiful hikes. And with a great guide, Horia, who didn’t only make us sweat during hillwalking but could easily switch to the political and financial situation in Romania or the ingredients of the Ciorba (great Romanian soup). A good experience! I would recommend Iulian and Horia to everybody who wants to explore Romania. You won’t regret it!

With the briefing to “go hiking and experience cities and Romanian culture and country life within a week time”, we approached Iulian to design a tour for us. One of our group´s members already did a tour six years ago and had a very good experience with him. We immediately received an individual tour recommendation. Slight changes and wishes from our side were implemented right away, Iulian had a very good sense and understanding for what we envisioned. The tour finally consisted of a three day hike in Fagaras Mountains (including cli… (>>>)

Mit den Wünschen: „Bergwandern, aber auch Städte und Kultur innerhalb einer Woche ein wenig kennen lernen“, wandten wir uns an Iulian, mit dem ein Teilnehmer aus unserer Gruppe vor sechs Jahren schon gute Erfahrungen gemacht hatte. Umgehend erhielten wir Antwort mit einem von Iulian geplanten Programm. Kleine Änderungswünsche von unserer Seite wurden sofort und problemlos von ihm aufgenommen und umgesetzt. So kamen wir auf drei Tage Bergwandern unter seiner Betreuung in den Fargaras Mountains, mit Besteigung des Serbota un… (>>>)

Frohen Mutes starteten wir (Iulian, sein Freund Andrei und ich) am 25. Juli 2010 aus Rudarita nach einer Anfahrt aus Kronstadt über Zernescht und Plaiul Foii auf welcher das Fahrzeug Dacia Logan seine Qualitäten als Geländefahrzeug unter Beweis gestellt hat

Auf einem wenig begangenen Pfad meisterten wir die erste Etappe der Kammwanderung bei gutem Wanderwetter und kamen am frühen Nachmittag auf dem Berevoescu (nach einem adrenalinsteigernden Treffen mit 15 Schäferhunde) an.

Am nächsten Tag ging es bei zunächst trockenem Wet… (>>>)

It’s quite possible that a vacation in Romania might pose some challenges for the average American tourist, especially when planning to visit castles, monasteries, and historical towns, as well as complete a 4-night hut-to-hut hiking traverse of the Fagaras Mountains. Challenging, that is, unless your trip is in the capable hands of Iulian Cozma. From our pickup at the Bucharest airport to our 4:30 a.m. departure back to the airport 10 days later, every step of our trip was handled by Iulian with the utmost efficiency and care for ou… (>>>)

Chris and I would like to thank you so much for the walk you put together for us all. It was well prepared and planned, The meadows so full of wild flowers were breathtaking,and we were very impressed with your knowledge of where to walk, especially where there were no known paths. We felt you carried out the walk with true professionalism. You were extremely helpful at all times and very informative on all aspects of the walk,the area and customs of Romania.

The Pensions were really nice to stay in and the people we met were so lovely and frie… (>>>)

Iulian was a very friendly and efficient guide, and took us on a great two-day, low-level route in the beautiful Piatra Craiului National Park through forest (which we were glad of in the heat) and lush meadows. We paid a fascinating visit to cheese-making shepherds (and had a robust encounter with some sheep dogs!)

After a very nice experience with Iulian in May where we discovered Omu Peak in the Bucegi mountains we decided this time to go hiking in the Fagaras Mountains on 19th&20th of June.

It is the best period because all Rhododendrons are blossoming and the top of the hills turn red. We slept on Friday in Brancoveanu Monastery and on Saturday morning we moved up from 800m to 2100m on the North Dragus ridge. The climb was tough but the scenery on the top with all the trees blossoming was worth all the efforts.We had a great lunch next to a stream b… (>>>)

A massive thank you for arranging, and then personally guiding us through our amazing Romanian experience. The itinerary you put together perfectly matched our requirements – it covered mountain, country, forest and city landscapes -all in 5 days. In addition seeing a wild bear with her cubs, having a cup of fruit tea in a weather station on on top of Omu and watching the hay making process, were all unexpected bonuses.

Our biggest thank you goes to you personally for your attention to detail – from the fantastic Romanian food you ensur… (>>>)
