My 2 week Romanian/Dacian immersion was more than I hoped, thanks to having Ionut as my guide. His professionalism and efficiency proved he was listening and quite capable from the very beginning. Ionut customized an itinerary that was both thorough and thoughtful, leaving time for rest periods. Ionut has a deep knowledge of Romanian history and never seemed to tire of my endless questions. I enjoyed our conversations immensely. Having Ionut to translate and do all the driving made me free to relax and enjoy the beautiful scenery. I especially appreciated his language skills when it came to menus and ordering food

This was an awesome way to get know Bucharest! This city was awesome, and Ionut was a fantastic guide. We lived every minute, tracking around the city and exploring its delights.. We can highly recommend Ionut's services.

I have travelled more than once with Ionut, both in hiking and cycling tours. I have been together with his groups in several winter hikes, they were well chosen and carefully prepared. He pays attention to each tourist without exaggerating, he takes care of all details and is focused on all the aspects which can make a trip nicer. He chooses really nice routes for cycling, less known and with things to do on the way. Highly recommended. 

Ionut Maftei was our private tour guide. He planned the tour based on our wants and needs. He was very personable and knowlegable of all things Romanian.  

Ionut accommodated my husband's needs in every way possible. He also arranged for me and him to do walking tours. He is a pleasant person to spend a lot of itme with. We were together for 12 days. 

With COVID and the Ukranian war, we cancelled our trip several times. Ionut was very patient with this. He was also very repsonsive to my email messages over more than three years. 

Ionut worked hard to research information about my family. I really appreciated that work. 

Traveiling in his car we stopped at many local amenities. It felt like we were living in Romania. We enjoyed the whole trip.

I recently joined a day trip  and it was a fantastic experience. Our guide, Ionut, was knowledgeable and friendly, and he made sure we had an amazing time exploring Bucharest on our bikes.. The bikes provided were of excellent quality, and the entire trip was well-organized. I highly recommend him for an enjoyable and immersive biking tour experience. I'm looking forward to joining another tour with him in the future.
