Marius Cornel DIMA
Birdwatching Guide
“Born in 1986 in Tulcea, I developed a passion for birds early in life, spending my childhood summers at my grandparents’ home near Lake Razelm, exploring its shores and observing the rich birdlife. My true understanding of nature began to grow under the guidance of Professor Eugen Petrescu, who helped shape my path and deepen my appreciation for the natural world.”
Member of the team since 2016.
Marius guides birdwatching tours at an outstanding level of expertise, setting a standard that is not easily matched in the tourism industry. Our clients consistently appreciate his depth of knowledge and experience, often considering him among the very best birding guides worldwide.

Ionut "Caiacea" IOSIF
Danube Delta Guide
“I was born and raised in Mila 23 village, and from my perspective, this is the most important thing. It has helped me become deeply familiar with everything related to the Danube Delta: routes, birdlife, and the more remote areas that are less accessible by boat, everything that defines the Delta’s beauty."
Member of the team since 2012.
Caiacea is guiding Nature Enthusiasts and Photo Tours.
Iulian "Julian" SEREDENCU
Danube Delta Guide
“I was born in Tulcea, but I grew up in the heart of the Danube Delta, where I developed a deep connection with nature and the world around us. I have been working as a guide in the Danube Delta since 2012, and since 2015 I have been part of the Descoperă Delta Dunării team. My passion for this unique landscape is matched by my extensive knowledge of its lakes, winding channels, and remarkable birdlife.”
Julian is guiding Nature Enthusiasts Tours.
Calina AVANU
Travel Coordinator
“I am a mountain soul from Sinaia, with a deep appreciation for nature, history, and art. Though the mountains were my first home, my journey has led me toward diverse landscapes and experiences. Through education and a life shaped by travel, I have blended these passions into my professional path. Since 2010, I have worked as a travel coordinator, a role that continuously challenges and inspires me. In 2018, I discovered the Danube Delta, a completely different world of water and wildlife, where I became involved in guiding and logistic operations. Here, far from the mountains yet equally rich in meaning, every encounter with people turns into a subtle life lesson.”
Corneliu LEU
Programmer & Kayak Guide
“Coming from Brăila, I grew up with a strong connection to the Danube and its living world. My relationship with the river began at just six years old, when I started fishing with my uncle, first from the shore, then from a boat, and later from a kayak, which offers the freedom to explore even the shallowest waters, where adventure still feels untouched.In my professional life, I am a programmer, making sure our website runs smoothly and that communication flows without interruption.”

Iliuta GOEAN
Founder of Discover Danube Delta
“Born in Bucharest, I only realized after the age of 30 where I truly belong: in the Danube Delta and Dobrogea. The magic of this place drew me in so deeply that I made a radical decision, leaving the city behind to live closer to nature, on the water itself. A life built around what I love, shaped by freedom, passion, and the silence of natural spaces, far from the noise and pressure of the city.
For me, luxury means doing what I truly love. This is why I continue to guide photography and birdwatching experiences in two extraordinary locations: the Danube Delta, from April to October, and Lake Kerkini in Greece, from October to April.”
