About this trip

Europe's wildest corner — where the Danube meets the Black Sea

The Danube Delta is one of Europe's last great wilderness areas. Covering over 5,800 km² of channels, lakes, reed beds and forests at the mouth of the Danube, it is home to over 300 bird species — including the world's largest colony of white pelicans outside Africa — plus otters, wild boar, lynx and rare fish species.

A UNESCO Biosphere Reserve since 1991, the Delta is best explored by boat from the town of Tulcea. We drive you from Bucharest to Tulcea (about 3 hours), where you board a local boat tour through the channels to spot pelicans, cormorants, herons, eagles and the extraordinary landscape of Europe's most biodiverse wetland.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Yes, but it is a long day — about 3 hours each way to Tulcea plus 3–4 hours on the water. We recommend starting at 6:30am. Many visitors prefer to stay overnight in the Delta to experience sunrise on the channels, which we can also arrange. For a day trip, the experience is still extraordinary.

April and May are the best months for birdwatching — the pelicans and migratory species are present in huge numbers. June to September is warm and great for boat trips. October sees the autumn migration. The Delta is accessible year-round but peak wildlife activity is spring and summer.
