Fun experience with our guide Elena. Peleș Castle was really beautiful and worth the price. Tip: bring money in cash and be on time at the pickups

I’ve been to many countries and had many of these kinds of tours. This was the BEST! Petru was AMAZING! He was born and raised in Romania but speaks English better than I do (and I am an American). British accent, which is quite pleasant to the ears. Very funny (and I do mean that in a “Ha! Ha!” kind of way). His knowledge of Romanian history and about every city we passed through and every castle we visited has got to be unparalleled. This was a LONG day but he made the time go by quickly. The highlight of my trip to Romania!

We visited Bran and Peleș Castles. Both were interesting and worth seeing. Our guide, Petru, was like a walking encyclopedia with a lot of knowledge about the castles and their history. He was very friendly and easy to talk to, which made the trip even better.

It was a great day trip and the sights were excellent. Our tour guide Otilia was an excellent story teller on the history of the country and the area. She really made it come to life! Our driver Cosmin was excellent as well having to navigate through traffic delays because of a car race and bridge construction. We couldn’t have asked for a better team on this trip!

My opinion Bran Castle is the better of the 2. Very organised, we had Eugen who was giving us information all through the tour on the bus which was very good. Both castle are unique in their own way. Brasov is a great little place, would recommend this trip for Brasov itself
