This was a route I'd been looking for for a long time; a route where we could see ancient Greek history, Bulgaria, and Transylvania all at once.

The tour was called Mysterious Greece-Bulgaria & Romania. It was fantastic! 10 days. I love the Hotel but roundabout day seven all of my tool went in a different direction and I went by myself onto Bucharest. It would've been nice to have the option to join the others who are going to a different location. It felt strange being by myself for the last three days.Show more
