Roemenië heeft geen beste reputatie. Vampiers, een stalinistische dictator en milieuverwoestende industrieËn bepalen het beeld, dat recent nog werd aangevuld door skimmende en kunstrovende boevenbendes. Op reis met de motor door Maramures¸ ontdek je echter een ander beeld.Read the article.

Article in The Riders Digest from UK

Jeof Thomas in a motorcycle tourby Jeoff Thomas
Transfagarasan Highway
: Just when you think that things can’t get any better, they do. It’s like riding into a photograph that you recognise. Hairpin bend after hairpin bend, climbing into the snow and clouds. The sight lines are perfect and all of the road is there to use. The sight lines are perfect and all of the road is there to be used. You don’t need to ride quickly and it doesn’t really matter what bike your riding, it’s all just spectacularly good.  read the article



Cycle Torque - Australian Motorcycle Magazine about Motorcycle Tours in Transylvania, Eastern EuropeTransylvania Live - Article in Cycle Torque from Australia

by Chriss Picket Motorcycle Tours in Romania

The trip was exotic, humorous, sobering, wild, breathtaking, and visually spectacular. To say this is one of the greatest things I've done on a motorcycle is a major understatement. It's hard to describe the region's beauty but there's many areas in Australia just as beautiful. I found the culture and the way of life of the Romanian people the special part of the trip. read the article

100 % Biker Magazine-Nik SimsonTransylvanian Travels in 100% Biker, UK

by Nik Simson
There were, you see, a ruck of 650GS BMWs and one 1200GS. We were to draw lots for who rode which bike and muggins here got the last number to be drawn so I, basically, had to wait until the others’d picked their bikes and then take what was left. We all assumed the 1200 was Alin’s and so they all picked a 650 and, when it was my turn, I was about to too when Alin walked across the remaining 650 and got on it. That meant I got the 1200 – result!

BMW ON - Court FisherBMW Motorcycle Owner of America-Owner NewsRiding Transylvania BMW ON Motorcycles Owners of America
by Court Fisher

With apologies to Bram Stocker's Dracula and the contemporary vampire craze, riding in Romania's Transylvania region is more exciting than a bite on the neck or learning how to kill the living dead. Transylvania's mix of cultural histories and conflict, medieval to baroque to modern architecture, horse-drawn carts clopping along European Union signage highways, the residue of Nicolae Ceausescu's Soviet - era dictatorship, and riding the spectacular Transfagarasan Pass make for a very heady motorcycle jaunt. read the article
