"Both castles were exceptional as was the Transylvanian scenery in general. Host was very knowledgeable and managed a group of 40 people and their needs very well. Only minor issue was visiting Brasov when there was a massive musical festival on and couldn’t really see or do much . It would have been better to ask the group whether they wanted to do this effectively added another 3 hours to an already long day (0715 to 2200). Other than that was a great trip. "

It is a very long day (13 hours) due to the high volume of traffic in and out of Bucharest and in the Brasov area, but worth it to see the Carpathians and the castles.

Hands down one of the best tour guides I've ever had. Serban Riga made every part of the trip worth it, he was full of facts and local stories. Was more than happy to answer any questions and super accommodating and professional even when faced with difficult customers. The driver also deserves a shout out, managed tricky roads and traffic beautifully. Serban also was our personal guide inside the castles and brasov, was a exceptional touch in my opinion. Would book another tour without hesitation.

The tour guide was very knowledgeable, and the trip was very cheap. She was nice, and we had more than enough time to look at the castles and surrounding areas.

The tour was great! Tour guide and driver (Serban and Narcis) were both very good on what they do! Picked up from a central location of Bucharest on time, arrival according to the schedule. It's really remarkable how many things we saw and learn in that day trip. Serban gave as several info ..not only about the places we visited but also about general Romanian history. Absolutely beautiful places💕Thank you
