A terrific way to see a lot of Romania and to visit hard to reach places. It’s a lot day, over 14 hours, but time well spent.

I think a better way of how to get back to the bus may be a signage or landmark because some of tourist got lost going back to the bus.

This was a great trip to see Transylvania at its best. The driver was pleasant and did a great job getting us there quickly and safely. Our guide was amazing and gave us several options for how to do the tour, which was very convenient.

Great trip!! Our opinion was that maybe seeing just one of the two castles (probably Bran - Dracula’s) would have been sufficient, as we would have preferred a little longer in Braşov. This is of course just a question of taste, though. The driver was super and (guide good too) and we enjoyed our day. If in Bucharest with a spare day, we would certainly recommend doing this. Yes, there is a fair bit of driving. But, the rewards were good for doing so!
