Small-Group Day Trip to Dracula's Castle, Brasov and Peles Castle from Bucharest

Amazing tour guide. Shared stories and got to know the participants. Was Amazing and we highly recommend

Matei was awesome. This tour was a great chance to see this part of Romania. Matei was very informative and knowledgeable about the castles and towns we visited. Would highly recommend!

This was a very nice, well-managed tour. Camillia is a very good, knowledgable guide. We left on time, the bus was quite comfortable with wifi on board. Peles Castle is beautiful, with gorgeous rooms. There spot for outside pictures is reached after you have gone through the castle, and makes for great pictures (see photo). Bran Castle is more basic, but has an aura because of its association with Dracula (even though the real Vlad Dracula did not spend much time there.) Several rooms are dedicated to Dracula videos, statues, pictures, etc., which we thought was not a good idea. The castle also has a lot of memorabilia of Queen Maria of Romania, who had the castle renovated in the early 20th century. There are quite a lot of stairs to climb if you want to see the whole castle, including a very old-style stone stairway. Once you get done with the castle, do walk in the surrounding park area because that is where you get the best pictures. Brasov has a very large, beautiful town square. Unfortunately, we only had an hour in Brasov so there was not much time to explore. I did go into the Black Church, which has a certain Gothic majesty, though the inside is almost totally devoid of any frescoes or icons. It was initially built as a Catholic church, but was turned into a Lutheran church when the local Saxon populace converted after the reformation. Later, it was partly destroyed by a fire giving it its dark exterior appearance - hence its name. The lunch break was at Bran Castle, and you have to be quite quick in making your choices - especially if you want to do a sit-down meal (which is possible). We did not find the street food on offer especially appetizing, but the restaurants have a lot of good choices. Overall, a long but very satisfying tour.

Great and funny tour guides and very modern minivan used for transport. Thanks for an amazing time and wine xx

Reasnoable price for a full day tour that involved long hours of drive across 3 different locations. Our guide, Matthew (not sure of spelling) was punctual, interactive and provided interesting information about the locations. There was sufficient time to explore and have some food, buy souvenirs etc.

The tour was okay. The sites are impressive, however, better logistics would had made the experience better. In the venues it was easier if you pay with cash. Instead of making a stop at an ATM the tour guide made use do a 30 mins line ( which apparently could had been 1 1/2 hours on a busy day) to get our tickets.

Love the trip and love the guide and the atmosphere. I highly recommend this tour! It was impressive

The Peles castle is beautiful and I really enjoyed wandering around in Brasov. Beautiful city to visit. Pelas castle is a real museum

Excellent and knowledgeable guide and driver. Tour was very well planned and they gave many interesting perspectives.

I really recommend this tour, Peles castle and Brasov are something special. Lot of history behind these. Must see!
