Great Wine Tour with Room for Even More Authenticity

We had a wonderful experience with Ovidiu, whose hospitality and warm, personalized service truly stood out; he is an excellent host and made us feel very welcome. As frequent wine travelers (France, Italy, Spain, US, Georgia, etc.), what we loved most was the chance to discover Romania’s unique wines. At the same time, we think the experience could become even more memorable with a bit more focus on vineyard walks, local grape varieties, and tasting settings that highlight the authentic charm of Romania’s wine culture. This would add that extra “wow” factor we know the country has to offer. That said, we really enjoyed our day and are looking forward to coming back for another tour in the future to explore even more of Romania’s fantastic wines with Ovidiu. Highly recommended!

Fabulous!! Ovidiu is the best!

We (my wife and I) cannot praise Ovidiu and his professionalism enough. He communicated with us constantly throughout the booking process making sure all was good for the day of the tour. On meeting Ovidiu, he greeted us with smiles and water for hydration as it was a very hot day. He told us what we will except on the tour, and we chatted constantly as we made the scenic drive into the countryside. He is very well travelled and easy to chat with which was great! The wineries we visited were fantastic, we’d have never found them ourselves Lol. The cheese, meat and fruit platters provided were delicious and plentiful too. After our first winery visit Ovidiu too us for a traditional Romanian lamb lunch and wow it was delicious. The meat super soft and tender and the roasted vegetables washed down with equally delicious local red and rose wine topped off an enjoyable lunch. We really enjoyed our time here but onto the second winery where we were greeted by a super friendly lady who when chatting with her you could feel the passion she had for her work. She took us around her vineyard, cellars and thereafter we sampled more wine. All in all Ovidiu is the best tour guide. We arrived a couple of days before a pre-booked river cruise but if we had more time, we would have loved to have booked him for further tours. Thank you so much Ovidiu for a wonderful and enjoyable day

First class wine tasting

This was simply the best wine tasting tour ever. Ovidiu was a fantastic guide and very knowledgableable regarding the selected wines. Highly recommended - it does not get any better than this. I would like to give this more than 5 stars if this was possible.
