Excellent Day - Stephanie our guide was knowledgeable and include the group which spoke multiple languages Some booked tickets through tour some on their own Depends on when you go and what crowds might be there Our Tuesday trip was quiet in all locations Bran Castle lots of steps some steep Christo our driver was excellent Long day but worth it for the history and the amazing views

Good, but could use some tweaks. - The tour itself was good. Well planned and executed. Andreaa our guide was awesome. Super knowledgeable, and extremely friendly! I do however have a few complaints.. 1) I wish it had been noted somewhere as to how large the group was going to be. If I had known it was to be a fully packed greyhound style bus, I likely would have opted for a 'small group' tour instead, and paid the extra. 2) Castle Contacuzino is cool to see, and the atmospheric location is definitely something.. However, as there is only the one room that can be entered, I found that part kind of a rip off if I'm being honest. Definitely not worth what was paid. 3) I didn't care for the order in which the Castles were completed. For me, ending at Bran castle after having seen Peles, made it extremely underwhelming. Note for the company - I would really consider changing this up, to start with Bran and end at Peles, as let's be honest, Peles is the star of the show! All in all, I would do it again, but I'd definitely pay the extra for a small group, and would opt out of the Contancuzino Castle as it isn't worth the price for what is accessible.

never again - just a big scam - i am truly shocked by the tour I booked. first of all, the tour didn't include the destinations and castle visits i had booked. secondly, we were blatantly ripped off on the bus. getyourguide contacted me beforehand, saying I should book and pay €85 for the tickets in advance. i paid the €85 on the bus. what I had expected was: a visit into peles castle (as booked) a visit into cantacuzino castle (as booked) and of course, bran castle (as booked) then things started getting strange! we were told that the groups are mixed now and that we also had to include a visit in brasov. so, some of the group wondered: would we have enough time for everything? but then the real madness began. suddenly, we were told there were no more tickets and we couldn't visit peles castle as booked, but would instead visit pelișor castle – entrance fee there was 6 lei, just over one euro. then we arrived at cantacuzino castle – logically, we should have toured the castle – but NO! we only had 30 minutes and only looked at one "window." entrance fee was 15 lei, or 3 euros. bran also had far too little time, because we also had to visit brasov another participant was supposed to be left behind during the tour due to a complaint, but she was promised she could still visit peles castle. a time was arranged with her at the castle, by which we were supposed to be back at the bus to continue our journey. never book this company!!! Absolutely insane!!! a massive scam!!
