Romanian cuisine has a diverse range of dishes, some being only plant-based, and the food tasting will usually contain a sample of all, so there is diversity for all tastes and needs. For full meals organised by us, please let us know during the booking process of any requirements to make sure the menu is adapted to your dietary conditions.
While backpacks and small bags are no problem during day-trips, we ask you to leave your larger items stored at your accommodation or at luggage-storage spots in town. For multi-day tours, of course your luggage will travel with you as we move from town to town.
Tips for your guide and driver are not included. If you loved the tour, our guides and drivers always appreciate recognition for a well-done job! The amount is entirely a personal preference, but 10-20 Euros/GBP per day can be used as a guideline.
