(…)The docking location had to be changed because the ship can’t sail all the way down to Oltenita, due to super low water. So Operations sent out an info email to all guests with the name and address of the new docking location and they ONLY included my contact details. (…) And here’s the part that really got me: Virginia herself suggested that also they include her name and phone number in the message. Once the message went out, my phone literally exploded, within half an hour I was getting bombarded with calls, emails, and messages from guests, even those who had transfers booked! (…) But Virginia was also getting tons of messages, and she replied to every single one of them just like me + she even took care of all the extra transfer requests I sent to her in the meantime.❤️
If she would not offered (volunteered) to have her contact info included, I’d probably still be answering messages right now.
She knew exactly that doing this would only bring her extra work and stress, but she still stepped up because she also knew I’d be on the bus with guests and at the castle this evening.
It’s been a long time since I’ve seen someone act with such selflessness, empathy, proactivity, and true teamwork.
I just felt I had to share this with you, because she really deserves this bit of attention and appreciation!!!
Dear Virginia,
My apologies for the delay in sending this—I’ve been caught up with summer travels.
I just wanted to reach out and express my sincere appreciation for all the work you did for our group. Everyone had a fantastic time in Romania and was truly impressed with your efforts. Personally, I want to commend you for managing all the back-and-forth changes with such care and professionalism.
Thank you as well for the wine and for everything you did for the our group—it was all very much appreciated!
Firstly thanks again for all you did to make this tour one of my happiest and most successful to the Enescu Festival. The group loved it all and I've had very positive feedback about the visit to the Map Museum again and the wine tasting and lunch.
Buna Virginia! Just wanted to let you know that the visits went very well. The organisation from your end was excellent and Iulia was a wonderful guide.
Boarded flight to Doha. I am going to India with the wonderful and beautiful memories of Romania. I wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude for all your support during my Bucharest trip. Despite the many initial hiccups, your understanding, kindness, and unwavering support made all the difference. Your ability to navigate the situation and provide solutions was truly invaluable. Thank you so much for everything
We certainly did finalise another wonderful tour together! I have been singing your praises ever since. You have been so wonderful to work with, so thank you.
I do hope I can come to Bucharest one day and meet you.
