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

Serban, our tour guide was on time and kept us amused. He was very knowledgeable about Peles and Bran Castle. The van was impeccably clean and we enjoyed the small group vibe. Our driver Peter was excellent and did his best getting us through the traffic. Serban also took all the pictures we asked him to and made sure we got the best views. It is a long day but well worth it.

Fantastic sights (Braşov & Peleş Castle) and very well informed, helpful guide. Also, our guide was a great driver which made the trip pass quickly. Very memorable. Thank you!

The traffic flow in Romania is very inefficient. As such, the itinerary is merely an outline. We made it to all three destinations, but our guide spent most of the trip talking about the traffic which made for a stressful and hectic experience. The guide had great enthusiasm but his energy was distracting and sometimes annoying. Unless you love the story of Dracula, Bran’s castle is a little disappointing.

This is a long, long day given the amount of traffic in the area. That being said, the area around Peles Castle and Braşov are amazing. Braşov is definitely worth the trip. Bran Castle is a bit underwhelming and the cost to enter just to get photos is not really worth it.

our guide Serban was excellent gave us loads of information even before the tour by whats app, checked in with us while on tour (free time) that we were happy and all was well, very attentive, also very informative on the places we visited, couldn't fault it. Our driver Peter was a very good driver felt very safe. Would highly recommend

Long day to visit the three sites but worth it both for the beauty of the castles and the city of Brasov. What really made the day was our outstanding guide Ioana, who filled our time with her passion, humour, authenticity and knowledge.

Our tour guide was a lovely very knowledgeable young lady(sorry her name I didn’t catch) the day was a long day from 8am until after 9pm but well worth it. Both the castles were interesting I preferred peles castle for the beauty inside. Dracula castle has a lot of steep steps in narrow corridors not an issue for most people but if you have any mobility issues it would be a challenge. There is a cafe at both castles the one at peles gets very busy but if you just step outside the entrance (where the bus drops you off) you will find a few local restaurants where it’s not as busy. We were given time at both castles to get a drink and snack. Braşov was a beautiful little town where you will have approx one hour to have a wonder and get a drink. On the way home we drove through some beautiful countryside in Transylvania we even saw bears. The drive is a long drive home over 3.5 hours you do stop for a comfort break. Please bear in mind that you are high up so take a jacket depending on the time of year.

Pick up was spot on time and tour guide was very friendly and gave clear information during the drive. Both castles were great to visit and plenty of free time at both and also in Brasov.

Although this is a big day out with a long drive, the journey was comfortable and well paced. Our guide was well organised and very informative. Both Peles and Bran castles are well worth seeing. Just be aware that Bran castle does require an uphill walk and also some narrow, steep steps within the castle. The free time for lunch/snacks at our last stop Brasov was much appreciated.
