WILD TRAVEL is a Romanian company that promotes ecotourism in the Danube Delta. Founded by the ornithologist Mihai Baciu, the company organizes tours in the Danube Delta, based on bird watching, wildlife photography or simply relaxing in nature, with its own or rented boats. Mihai BACIU is the manager of the company and the main guide. He is a nature photographer, ornithologist and writer, having published 4 books about the birds of the Danube Delta and its surroundings, with the photographs he took over the years. He was a ranger in the Danube Delta Biosphere Reserve, where he got his passion for bird watching and guiding tourists. The books are written in Romanian and translated into Italian, English, French and German.
