Short Bear Watching Experience from Brasov
The tour was everything we expected and hoped for. Starting with a punctual pick up, a pleasant ride with very knowledgeable guide. We feelt safe at all times. And of course seeing the bears themselves (many lovely bears!). We enjoyed it immensely, and I highly recommend to anyone who wants to enjoy wild life in Romania! Thank you, Simona for an amazing afternoon <3

Short Bear Watching Experience from Brasov
We really enjoyed our bear watching experience with Simona, who is incredibly knowledgeable about the bears and was able to answer every question we asked. We saw at least 4 different bears. Transportation was straightforward, and they accommodated dropping us off in Zărnești rather than back in Braşov as we were staying there that night.

I found Romanian Friend online when I searched for being able to watch bears in the wild. The trip was very easy to book and fitted in with my travel plans. Our guide Simona was very friendly, informative and showed a real love and passion for bears. We saw 5 bears on our trip and it was incredible. We used Simona's binoculas to be able to view the bears very closely. A fantastic, unforgettable experience. Thank you.

Bear Watching Safari in the Wild
It was a really interesting tour that I remember very fondly. I was picked up early before sunrise by a guide who researches bear populations in the region. Therefore, he had some experience where to find bears. We drove 40min out of Brasov. I could use binoculars and a thermal monocular to look for wildlife. After some time, we discovered a wild bear strolling around.

Great tour. We drove through beautiful countryside to get to the forest where the hide was situated. We were lucky to see 3 bears as well as some smaller animals. It was really special seeing these beautiful creatures in the wild. Simona was very professional, knowledgeable and passionate.

Short Bear Watching Experience from Brasov
Myself and my partner had an incredible time on our bear watching experience - it was just the two of us so it felt extra special. Simona was brilliant - she picked us up in Brasov and on the journey to the hide was full of fascinating information about Romanian bears and the difficult relationship between bears and humans in the country. Once in the hide, she let us borrow her binoculars and camera, and even sent us all the pictures we took afterwards. It was raining quite heavily the afternoon of our tour, so we were worried we wouldn’t see any bears. We needn’t have worried - right after we arrived our first bear appeared, and we ended up seeing 7! It even started snowing at one point, adding to the magic of the experience. We were amazed at how quickly Simona was able to identify each bear, and it was wonderful how excited she got at seeing certain bears, especially one in particular that she hadn’t seen in a long time, it made it all the more exciting for us. We would definitely recommend this tour for anyone coming to Brasov.

Short Bear Watching Experience from Brasov
easy booking and well organised tour. you can see the guide is a wildlife specialist, not like other regular guides. I'm glad we did this instead of visiting the bear sanctuary, seeing animals in the wild is a unique experience.

what a great experience, my teenage son who never saw animals in the wild loved it! Simona is a great guide, very patient and knowledgeable. highly recommend and thanks to Marius at Romanian Friend who made it possible for us to join last minute!

Great experience and very knowledgeable guide. Observing wild bears safely is amazing! Would highly recommend.

Short Bear Watching Experience from Brasov
It was really neat to see bears in the wild! Really great experience and guide was very nice. I would recommend to do this! Note that there are different locations for the look outs, so it may look different than in the pictures. Our location wasnt this pretty meadow in the pictures, but still, the bears came quickly and that was the important part. They feed the bears to keep them out of the nearby farms etc, so you will see bears.

Short Bear Watching Experience from Brasov
This tour was the highlight of my whole week in Romania across various towns and cities. Was so cool seeing brown bears in the wild (we saw 4 in total) and Simona our guide was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, professional and engaging. You simply cannot go to Brasov and NOT do this tour!

Excellent trip. Great communication throughout. Our guide, Simona, was very informative and knowledgeable about bears. We had a great time. Highly recommended.

Short Bear Watching Experience from Brasov
We were absolutely thrilled by the sight of the bears and the informative commentary from Simona. Despite the feeding being an artificial lure to encourage bears to visit the hide each afternoon, we how sympathetic the program must be so that farmers and wildlife can coexist. I recommend this tour to everyone. You will feel exceptionally lucky. Thank you, Simona!

Short Bear Watching Experience from Brasov
Booked a Bear watching trip through Romanian friend with Simona. Everything went perfectly,from beginning to end.far exceeded my expectations. Saw many bears. Simona was very friendly & informative. Excellent trip.

Everything was super smooth and professional, even though there happened to be a news crew joining us that day. We saw nine bears in total and learned so much about the animals and this part of Romania. The best thing I've done in Romania - definitely go for it!

Short Bear Watching Experience from Brasov
This was our second tour we did to see the bears. Again saw about 7 bears. You do get pretty close to them and get a good view watching for about 1 and 1/2 hours. Plenty of information and very well organised from start to end. See our other report. Will be back next year.

Robert was a superb guide and made sure we got to see some bears, even if it necessitated a second trip! This was a unique and thrilling experience, thank you.

Short Bear Watching Experience from Brasov
Full success. We saw about 10 bears and two foxes. But the best was our knowledgeable guide Simona. She gave us a lot of insides about the behaviour of bears, the pros and cons of the rising bear population but also interesting, determined facts about romainian environmental law. All in all: We strongly recommend!

We loved it - we got to see 6 bears!

On the way to the bear hide and back she shared a lot of interesting information about bears, nature, Romania. The bear watching was unbelievable! We saw 10 bears, and we were so lucky we saw them immediately! The ranger who went with us to feed them was also very cool.

Short Bear Watching Experience from Brasov
The trip out of Zarnesti was such a great experience for me and my 8 year old son. We saw 8 bears! A younger male wanted to challenge the dominant male, so there was quite a fight going on! The hide was only about 20 minutes drive out of Zarnesti and the car went all the way to the hide. Our guide was very helpful and answered willingly all our questions. Highly recommended!

Short Bear Watching Experience from Brasov
This was a wonderful, unforgettable experience. Simona was a great guide and drove us to a bear hide in the forest early one evening. We saw eight bears eating, resting, interacting and scratching - truly memorable to be so close to these wild animals.

Great experience bear watching, guide was knowledgeable and spoke excellent English, definitely recommend 10/10


Short Bear Watching Experience from Brasov
The tour itself was brilliant! We saw 11 bears, 10 of which were at the hide (we saw one on our drive out). We had nearly two hours at the hide which was amazing, and the group size was lovely and small - just one other couple with us. Simona was a pleasure to spend time with and pointed out some of the history and local sights on the drive. If you want to hang out with bears in their natural environment, learn more about their life and ecology and have a wonderfully intimate experience with them, don't miss this tour!

Short Bear Watching Experience from Brasov
Simona was very kind and the experience was amazing.

Great Experience; perfectly organized! Simona picked us up at the hotel to meet the wildlife-guide in the National Park. The first bear appeared just one minute after we arrived in the hide. All in all we saw about six of them. The wildlife-guide explained a lot about these fantastic animals. Highly recommendable tour for those who are interested in real wildlife!

Short Bear Watching Experience from Brasov
We had an excellent tour from Brasov with Romanian Friend to spot some bears. They took us to a different location that was further away (at no additional cost) to increase our chances, and it really paid off. It was a great experience and the guides were very knowledgeable about the bear. Would recommend!

Short Bear Watching Experience from Brasov
Great tour! Did not see any bears on the first day, so we were invited the next day when we saw 2 large females! The guides Alex and Calin were great, very knowledgeable about bears and Romanian nature in general. And they also gave us tips about hiking in the mountains.


Short Bear Watching Experience from Brasov
Communication from Simona before the tours was very good. Easy to find the pick up place. Good information from Alex during the tour. Sadly we didn't see any bears but Simona gave me the opportunity to attend another tour the following day. Good price for the tour (other companies were offering a higher price for the same tour).

Short Bear Watching Experience from Brasov
We had a good experience in the hut in the middle of the forest. The entire family love the stories of our guide. He was fantastic! He had a lot of info about bears and wild animals. The kids enjoyed the activity of watching quietly the wild animals in nature.

Short Bear Watching Experience from Brasov
My partner and I were thrilled to see a magnificent (and handsome !) big male bear come swaggering up to the place in the forest where he could enjoy a healthy snack. We could observe him for about 10 minutes or so, full of admiration for his quiet strength. Another smaller (male ?) dropped by about 45 minutes later, once the first bear had left, so the coast was clear for this second bear to (more cautiously) enjoy a snack. What a treat is was to see them in their own environment ! The binoculars that Alex the guide passed around were a great idea. Fantastic tour!

Short Bear Watching Experience from Brasov
I have only great things to say about our experience with Romanian Friend! The bear watching trip we booked was amazing.

We booked our trip at very short notice (at 10 am on the day!) but Marius managed to squeeze us in. Everything was well organized and our guide Alex was very knowledgeable. We liked the bear watching trip very much. We saw 2 beats from the hideout and a fox. On our way back we also saw some deer.


Short Bear Watching Experience from Brasov
It was great to see bears in the wild even if they are lured by food. One bear was there when we arrived and then after watching foxes playing for a hour or so, three more bears arrived within ten minutes. The guide was very professional and the timings were good. He doesn't smile much and leaves long pauses before answering questions but is polite, helpful and knowledgeable. I recommend this tour to anyone who is visiting Brasov, an excellent experience and I would do it again.

Short Bear Watching Experience from Brasov

Simona, the guide, explained us everything about what the bears were doing in front of our eyes, so it was really like a living documentary. She also showed us bear footprints in the forest and the signs they leave on trees. I would recommend this tour to anyone in Brasov, thanks!
