Additional Information

Ever heard of Count Dracula? Are you courageous enough to explore the ancient vampire’s fortress? If so, consider joining our private tour through the magnificent Prahova Valley, located in the Carpathian Mountains.

Our journey begins in scenic Sinaia, known as the Carpathian Mountains’ Jewel. Here, you’ll witness the breathtaking Peles Castle’s interior, a former royal domicile and currently among Romania’s most toured castles.

Next, we visit the globally renowned Bran Castle—the infamous dwelling of Count Dracula, one of Romania’s most recognizable landmarks.

The final part of the tour takes us to Brasov, a city with medieval roots established by German settlers. Here, you’ll enjoy a delightful walk around the Old Town, immersing yourself in the captivating narrative surrounding Vlad the Impaler, the infamous historical figure of Transylvania.

During the tour, you’ll indulge in the spectacular scenery of the Carpathian Mountains. There will also be opportunities for photo sessions, coffee breaks, or merely stretching one’s legs throughout the day.

  • The exact pickup time (around 8 AM) will be communicated by email a day before
  • Children must be accompanied by an adult
  • Peles Castle is closed on every Monday and Tuesdays during the fall-winter (usually from mid. Sept. to mid. May) and all the national holidays. Due to pandemic times, the castles schedule may be updated on last minute without our control. We do out best to inform you if any changes occur.

Excellent daytrip to Transilvania - Toni is a friendly and polite guide and driver. Introducing his customers to old and recent history understandably. We went for a daytrip to Transilvania in a clean and modern minibus 11-12hrs. Standard trip w 3 stops. Peles castle, Bran castle and Brasov city. Toni is a safe and smooth driver and has good english skills. Nice and humorous guiding on the way in the car and in Brasow. He did not do guiding inside the castles, but he helps w tickets. Peles Castle and Bran Castle(«castle of Dracula»)are wonderful! Brasow was a nice visit. We did a mid week tour. Maybe more traffic in weekends. He can be highly recommended.

Very Enjoyable Tour from Bucharest - My wife and I took the Dracula Castle tour with Mr.Tony Tatar while we were staying in Bucharest in September, 2018. We signed up for the tour based on the recommendation made by others, and indeed it turned out to be an excellent one for us. Touring the Peles Palace in Sinaia and the Dracula Castle was enjoyable with Tony's expert maneuver to avoid the crowd at the entrance. Tony took us to a local restaurant to have lunch with the Transylvanian meal. We really liked it. The included walking tour of Brasov was nice: the town was beautiful and Tony was a knowledgeable guide of the town. We really enjoyed the day tour with Tony: he is a personable English speaker and a careful driver. Our stay in Bucharest became more memorable because of his guided tour we took. (He also helped me to understand traveling in Romania beforehand through emails) Thank you very much, Tony.

What a fantastic day in... - <p>What a fantastic day in Transylvania! Toni is a great guide, patient and knowledgeable. He picked us up at our Airbnb in the morning and off we went to see the countryside. He was attentive and made sure that my mom wasn't too worn out or rushed too quickly she'll be 75 in December. We recommend him 100!</p>
