Great tour. - Our guide was knowledgeable, friendly and personable. As a native son of Sibiu, he was clearly proud of his city. He did the tour simultaneously in English and German, and switched back and forth making all of us feel included. Really enjoyed it!

Smart tour - I recommend this tour 100%.
Mihai, the guide, is awesome and very knowleadgeable. He was also very helpful as he offered to recommend local cuisine and he told us about a nice scenery road for another part of our trip outside Sibiu.
I am from Cluj, Romania, still had lots of new things to learn about this area.

Great walking tour of Sibiu - Was excellent. Guide took us to the spots one would expect, i think. Also, provided personal perspective as she is from the general area of Sibiu. Impressive as she also speaks German. She was quite personable and chatted with folks beyond the formal tour spiel.
Gave a restaurant recommendation that's not on one of squares. I went and it was really good, atmospheric and tasty food, or at least massive and traditional!

Sibiu, as it couldn’t be better. - The tour guide gave us all the information we needed, she is very well educated. It was a really nice experience to have her show us around Sibiu and explain it to us.

Wonderfull walking tour in the Old Town with very competend guide - I was the only German speaker on the tour, but the guide was very attentive to include me. He translated to german when ever I wanted. The guide also made excellent restaurant recommendations in Sibiu. We visited some of them at same day.

Easy and informative - A great way to get oriented to Sibiu, sights and history. I was the only English speaker on the tour (everyone else was German), but the guide was very attentive to include me. He not only repeated his tour patter in both languages, he translated all the questions and summarized the extra conversation from German into English. The guide also made some excellent restaurant, bar and market recommendations as we passed by certain places. We followed up some of his recommendations over the next few days in Sibiu and each one was spot on.

Check which language(s) offered before signing up - The guide was fantastic, he knew so much about the history of his town, and the architecture. Unfortunately his employer ran the tour as both English and German, so the poor guy had to say everything twice. This was especially embarrassing to me, as I was the only English speaker - because of me, he had to work twice as hard. I felt that was unreasonable.

Average - This was my first walking tour in Romania that was in two languages…German and English. To be honest, I feel like a two hour tour would be better as we spent a lot of time standing while listening to the other language part and it wasn’t as comprehensive as I’d hoped. Or, offer the tour in different languages at different times. Our tour guide was Anna and she was good.

Not worth paying for - Very ordinary tour and guide was pretty hopeless. Didn’t even bother to introduce herself to us. Not worth paying for.
