Which city does the tour end? Do we go back to Budapest?

no the tour starts from Budapest and ends at Bucharest.

Is it possible to make the tour a private tour? We are interested in having two single rooms.

Yes, that is possible. They would need to book separate single rooms for the mentioned dates and there is an additional €250 per person to convert the tour into a private tour.

I'm traveling with my daughter on this tour. I would like to know since she's only 17 years old. If it's Ok if she travels with me.

Yes she can travel with you without any problem.

Interested in going from Bucharest to Budapest at the end of May but I'm only seeing Budapest to Bucharest dates. Are any trips available?

Yes, here is the link available for you.

Do not want to spend more than 3 hours a day in car or van. is there any way to shorten drive time. also we are two adults needing seperate accomodations.

The daily drives are usually more than 3 hours. If you'd like, we can arrange private tour with an extra night to reduce the amount of driving.

If we book ourselves as 2 travelers in a single room do we pay $1385 each. However, if we book ourselves as 2 travelers in a double room we would seem to pay $2548 each? Clearly we want to share a room with just my husband and myself. Can we do that for the $1385 each rate? We would then need to check the box that says single room with 2 travelers? Please advise how we can get the $1385 per person correct rate and be certain that the two of us are the only ones sharing a room with each other.

Sorry for the confusion, when we opened the 2026 dates, the double and single prices were accidentally reversed. This has now been corrected. The single room rate is €2,190 for a solo traveler in a private room and the €1,190 rate applies per person in a double or twin room (total €2,380 for two travelers sharing).

We notice that you have listed an upper age range of 70 years? We are older than that, will that be a problem?

If your health condition is good and you feel able to do the tour, then there's no problem, you can go ahead and book the tour.

Would like to know the name of the hotel in Bucharest after tour is done

Hotels are finalized about 3 weeks before tour starts. Most likely Hotel Capitol in city center.

We wish to go on the 6 day cultural tour from Budapest to Bucharest. The date indicated is 13 July. Is the date available? Do we ride in the same car from Budapest to Bucharest or must we travel in other vehicles as well?

For the requested date, there are currently no other participants registered. We require a minimum of 4 people to operate the tour. However, if you wish, we can convert it into a private tour by adding €200 per person. And yes, from start to finish, the tour will be conducted with one vehicle throughout.

Adjinis Tours did make some changes but was very good about keeping us posted. They even paid for our hotel room when the date was changed. Very responsive to questions and requests. Adjinis did an excellent job with this tour. We really enjoyed the journey from Budapest to Bucharest. We didn’t know how beautiful the countryside would be. All the small towns had such diverse histories…it was amazing. Irina was our guide with only my husband and myself in the group….what a treat! She was very knowledgeable and eager for us to learn about her country but also to be sure we were enjoying the tour. She was very good about responding to any requests or needs we had and tailoring our tour specifically for us. Highly recommend!Show more
