The real deal
We came to the forest just before nightfall. Alex was our guide, and he told us many strange and wonderful stories of the forest as the sun went down, and into the evening. There were no gimmicks, no fake stories, nothing made up just to scare us - just the enjoyment of nature and the wonderful stories. This experience is definitely what you make it - if you choose to be engaged with nature, you will love it, and if you choose to be afraid of the dark you will be scared. If you choose to meet an entity you just might get that chance too! We look forward to visiting again. ― FifiLaFrugPosted on

Excellent tour!
I was supposed to do the night tour of the forest but couldn't due to a flight delay. Alex from the Hoia-Baciu project was very flexible and accommodating, so the next day we went to both the forest and the salt mine. Both were so interesting and beautiful in very different ways and Alex has lots of stories to tell about the forest which makes it come alive! I would highly recommend this and can't wait to come back to visit the forest at night! ― nakkeroozPosted on

Even a good guide in the ‘urban jungle’!
Alex is a nice and social guy and easy to communicate with. I met him ad the fleamarket ( my idea he is very flexible) Were we browsed a couple of hours and the went into the city centre for an interesting and entertaining walk through and around the city. I could really recommend Alex as an city host and a tourguide. ― Lennart hPosted on

Cluj tours
Alex was a great tour guide! We spent two days with him the first day we went to the Turda salt mines and then to the Turda gorge, the second day we did a tour around the city of Cluj-Napoca. We had a great time! Alex is very friendly and will definitely take good care of you. He is very knowledgeable and if you enjoy nature definitely ask him to take you to the Turda gorge and the west Carpathian Mountains! We had a great time and would definitely go back ― Rachel HPosted on

Corvin Castle, Deva Citadel, Alba Iulia day trip!
Alex was my tour guide for Corvin Castle and Alba Iulia Citadel. During the drive to Corvin Castle, we discussed Transylvanian, Romanian, and eastern European history extensively, which was very interesting. We also discussed myths associated with werewolves and vampires. Alex showed me around the castle and explained the castle’s history and events. Then, we had lunch near the castle and made our way to Alba Iulia Citadel. Alex was nice enough to take some photos of me. He shared the location’s history and we had a lot of fun. The drive back consisted of lots of fun and interesting conversations. I really enjoyed it and would definitely recommend him! I’d also recommend Alex’s personal tour of the Hoia Baciu forest! Overall, it was a great experience. ― Janna S.Posted on
