Private 110-minute Danube boat tour from Orșova through the Cauldrons, with key stops like Decebalus, caves, Ada Kaleh, and audio guide.
“Das Personal war sehr nett. Aufgrund eines Staus auf dem Weg nach Orsova kam ich zu spät zum gebuchten Slot, durfte dann aber auf das nächste Boot mit aufsteigen. Der Bootführer spielte Infos auf dem Weg zu den Sehenswürdigkeiten auf englisch hintereinander von einem Stick ab. Da der Geräuschpegel auf dem Speedboot sehr hoch war, habe ich kein Wort verstanden. Ich war auch die einzige Ausländerin unter den Rumänen. Hatte den Eindruck von Masse statt Klasse. Aber so ist das manchmal. Für Menschen mit chronischen Rückenleiden eher nicht zu empfehlen. Dann lieber eine Tour auf einem größeren Boot und mehr Zeit einplanen.”

Private 2-day Danube Delta and Black Sea tour from Bucharest with licensed guide, Tulcea hotel stay, and a full boat trip.
“This tour was a wonderful experience! The guide Dan Nica kindly gave me many interesting information about the places we visited and was very patient with my taking photographs. Since I already visited Constanța last year, he showed me the attractions that I did not see in my first visit: the beach with its interesting pier, etnographic museum and the remains of the Greek polis Histria. The next day we visited the Danube Delta, which is full of various birds (ibises, egrets, gulls, herons, pelicans...) and has interesting vegetation (willows, trees, yellow and white water lilies). All the people we met in the Delta (in Mila 23 Village) are very…”
