Overview

Your journey begins with a comfortable morning drive through the scenic countryside of southern Romania.

After arriving at the edge of the Delta, you'll board a boat for a peaceful guided tour through the winding canals, lush reed beds, and remote lagoons of this breathtaking natural paradise.

Spend around 4 hours immersed in the unique beauty of the Delta, spotting diverse birdlife such as pelicans, herons, and cormorants.

Your guide will share fascinating insights about the ecosystem and its rich biodiversity.

A highlight of the day is a homemade lunch at a local fisherman’s house, where you’ll enjoy freshly caught fish prepared the traditional way – an authentic taste of the Delta’s culinary heritage.

After lunch, relax and soak in the tranquil views before heading back to Bucharest, carrying with you the serene magic of this hidden gem.
