    Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience! George really does have a gift for blending history with real life stories — it’s one thing to read about Romania’s past, but another to hear it from someone who lived it. We’re so happy you connected with him and got a real taste (literally!) of Romania, from its history to its food. We'd love to have you back anytime for more adventures!

    Jade

    Asked on November 22nd, 2025

    Do the Chinese citizens need tourist visa to visit Romania?

    Visa
    • RolandiaOperatorWritten November 2025

      Chinese citizens do need a tourist visa to enter Romania. However, since Romania is now part of the Schengen Area, if your friends already hold a valid Schengen visa, they can use it to enter Romania without applying for a separate Romanian visa. If they do not have a Schengen visa yet, they will need to apply for one before traveling.

    Marina

    Asked on July 13th, 2025

    We are a couple and a single adult requiring 2 rooms. The tour starts at 9am on the first day so we would need to fly to Bucharest the day before. Can you arrange rooms at the starting hotel for this night with transfers from the airport (as included) and at what cost? Also, we would like an extra night at the end with transfers to the airport after that (as included).

    Accommodation
    Flights / Transfers
    • RolandiaOperatorWritten July 2025

      The transfers are included, either if you arrive a day earlier and depart a day later. For this tour we are using in Bucharest Mercure Unirii hotel. You can add directly in your booking the extra night at the price of 140 eur/night, including breakfast.

    Asked on June 13th, 2025

    what is required to confirm our Tour places? Do we need to pay the full amount on the day of confirmation?

    Payments
    Tour Details
    • RolandiaOperatorWritten June 2025

      the tour requires a minimum of two participants to run. Since your booking is less than 30 days before the tour start date, full payment is required at the time of confirmation to secure your places.

      Edward

      TravelerWritten June 2025

      Will we be refunded if a schengen visa was not issued? Or if flights remain cancelled by the time the tour starts?

    • RolandiaOperatorWritten June 2025

      We can refund 50% of the tour cost only if the cancellation occurs less than 15 days before the tour start date. Cancellations made earlier than that are eligible for a full refund. We strongly recommend that you purchase travel insurance that covers visa refusals, flight cancellations, and other unforeseen risks before proceeding with your booking.

      Jenna

      TravelerWritten April 2025

      Will the tour go ahead as planned if there are only two of us signed up?

    • RolandiaOperatorWritten April 2025

      The reason the tour on September 14, 2025 (Sunday) has a lower price is that we offer guaranteed departures on Sundays, which usually attract more guests. Because of this higher participation, we're able to offer more competitive rates.

    • RolandiaOperatorWritten April 2025

      For the other dates, tours require a minimum of two participants to be confirmed. If you select the tour on September 14th, it will definitely run, even if only the two of you sign up.
