Our main goal is to promote responsible, sustainable and durable tourism in Romania. Active Travel is committed to creating more opportunities to showcase the natural beauty of Romania while preserving these natural assets for future generations.

I founded the business in 2007, after I was working in the biggest travel agency in Brasov for 13 years. The main reason for doing this was to promote Romania as an eco destination. In 2008 Active Travel become a Member of the Association of Ecotourism in Romania. Active Travel is awarded with "Eco-Romania" logo for good practices in ecotourism for 4 hiking programs. "Eco-Romania" is a certification programme implemented by the Association of Ecotourism in Romania (AER).
