Danube Delta PRIVATE boat trip to Letea Forest (guided tour)
Letea sand dunes
We chose the One Day Delta trip, departing from Tulcea to Letea forest with a stop for Mila 23 village. We were an 8 group friend and we decided to rent a private tour just for us. It was very simple to book it. Just a click away directly from their website. We had some operational requests, which they were very kind to help us with. So our day started early in the morning. Around 8.00 am, we were already in Port Aval Tulcea, eager to embark on our new adventure. It was not long until we were given lifejackets and we boarded our ride for the day. We were ready to discover the charming delta. The tour included a local guide. Our guide was Cristi, which was very well informed and had very good knowledge of the entire region. And he had huge patience to answer our nonstop questions. We thank him for that. The day started calmly with gently floating on the delta's canals. Cristi was giving all the inside needed to have a proper image of the soundings. At midday, after a four-hour journey through the water labyrinths, we reached Mila 23, a traditional village surrounded by water, which has a special charm. All the white and blue houses have access to the water, to the old Danube and have a small pier. The guide told us that every villager has his own boat, without it they couldn’t survive. The village has narrow, cobbled alleyways, crowned with flowers and plants. A maze that was a pleasure to get lost to. In this village, there are no cars, no roads, and the atmosphere was great. We continued our journey, through the amazing channels and lakes of the delta for few more hours till Letea forest. There was a jeep waiting for us to take us around. Letea Forest is the oldest natural reservation in Romania. It was established in 1938 and it is located deep in the Danube Delta. It is the only place in Europe where you can see clinging plants. The most spectacular however are the old oak trees. There are many trees which are 400 years old and a few which go for more than 700 years. You can also admire the approximately 2,500 wild horses which were used for agriculture around 1990 but after the communist period, along with the economic downfall in the area, many of these horses were set free. After all that visit, we stopped at a local family and had an amazing local lunch, based on traditional fish recipes. After our late lunch, we jumped back to the boat to Tulcea. It was an amazing authentic experience for us that we highly recommend. Discover the Danube Delta is a great team that tries to show you in a sustainable way the beauty of the Delta.
