About us

Via Transylvania Tours (VTT) is a Romanian tour operator owning license #1250 issued by the Romanian National Tourism Authority.

We can help you discover the culture, visit the most attractive tourist sights and arrange transportation, meals and lodging.

But what we're really appreciated for is arranging meetings with locals, suggesting charming hotels and family-run rural guesthouses, offering home-cooked food, visiting less traveled places like remote authentic villages, craftsmen workshops, organizing activities in nature for families, small-groups, photographers, walking, hiking and biking enthusiasts.

In recent years our tours expanded to all regions of Romania so we launched two more websites to better showcase our new directions of development: True Romania Tours and Romania Photo Tours.

Tailor-made & responsible travel

Depending on your expectations, we'll tailor-make a tour for you. A first step would be to have a talk by phone or skype.

We promote a type of travel which promotes rural, historical, natural and cultural heritage conservation, helps local communities and is not intrusive.

Recommended by National Geographic Traveler (NGT)

NGT Romania placed us second among the best 11 tours of Transylvania in its December 2012 issue.
