Unbelievable experience
Tanya_E, Apr 2024
The whole day was a delight with guides Irina and Andra who provided a great experience and information throughout the day. The Mohos peat bog and st ana crater lake were stunning. But the highlight was, of course, the bears. It was an incredible experience and we saw six bears! Can’t recommend enough!

Had a fantastic day with Isti our very knowledgeable guide. Felt very safe and looked after. Seen a wild bear sunbathing at edge of forest when driving past in car and bears in evening from lookout with our guide and ranger with around twenty people, Hide easily can accommodate up to thirty with good visibility and seating also one way glass. Well organised tour and great day out packed with lots of outdoor and beautiful scenery in the mountains. Would definately do again.

Absolutely brilliant, Irina was a lovely host and even though I was the only one on the tour she still accommodated me! And most importantly we got to see two beautiful young bears! Loved it!

Rainy day made incredibly amazing!
Anna_F, Oct 2021
We had such a great time exploring beautiful Romania with Robert! It was a rainy day so we exceptionally started off with a visit to a Palinca distillery before heading out to the volcanic lake. The landscapes were just incredible and Robert told us a lot about the nature, flora, and fauna (in particular mushrooms!). Seeing the bog was super interesting and the smelly cave(s) are really worth a visit too! After a nice lunch to warm us up, we went to see the bears in their natural habitat and were delighted one decided to come out despite the rain. I would certainly recommend this great day trip to anyone! It was so much fun and one of the highlights of our Romania holiday. Thanks Robert :)
Response from Host, Oct 2021
Hi Anna, Thanks a lot for your kind words. Uhm, the rain was a bit too much though, even for my taste. I am glad you had fun, despite it. I absolutely loved your company! Looking forward to meeting you again in Romania. Regards, Robert Lazar
Fantastic Tour

It's been worth of it every cent i spent for this tour. Watching so many bears in their habitat is priceless. Landscape is amazing. Exciting and relaxing. I will return. Robert is the best tour guide we could get. Thanks!
Response from Host, May 2019
Hi, Thank you for your kind words. Indeed, Romania has a lot of beautiful landscapes and pristine nature, perfect for outdoor activities. You've seen only a small part of what this country really has to offer. I am here whenever you need me :) Best regards, Robert Lazar NeoTour Brasov
