Memories Made! Take this tour, with this company! - ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL! This tour epitomized excellence. The Guide: Mircea/Frank (you'll have to ask him) was a consummate professional. EXTEREMELY knowledgeable and friendly. His knowledge of the history, culture, and traditions of Romania and of the attractions on the tour was OUTSTANDING. It is a long tour, but he made it seem short with all the information provided. He took the time to get to know us and make sure our needs were met. As stated, it is a long tour. IT IS WORTH IT. All the stops were worth the drive. Peles is remarkably beautiful. Bran Castle was fun and educational. Brasov was well worth the stop. Most of your time is spent driving. This means the vehicle you use is almost as important as the stops. We were driven in a new, immaculately clean, VERY comfortable Mercedes passenger van. Mircea is an EXCELLENT driver. We always felt very safe. We have been on many tours, both private and group. The difference between a day of sightseeing and an experience to be remembered for years is always the guide. Mircea made this something we will not forget for many years to come. Thank you to him for making memories with us and for sharing his country. There are many tours with these same stops on TripAdvisor and Viator. I cannot stress enough that if you book this tour, you must book with Mircea and his company. MOST HIGHLY RECOMMENDED !

Childhood dreams do come true - First off, it was a dream of mine to see Transylvania and Dracula Castle since I was a little kid. I booked it as a private tour because I didn't want anyone stealing away from my fantasy or dream. Sometimes you must feed your inner child. I couldn't have gotten a better guide. Laura was on time, accommodating and a great conversationist. Very informative, 2 thumbs up for my guide. The restaurant we are at , perfect. I took a nap on the way back, and then it was time to part ways. Thanks Laura for sharing my dream with me.

A Perfect Day to Remember - Mircea provided an unforgettable experience. His depth of knowledge was awe-inspiring as he shared fascinating stories about the locations and their historical significance. Despite unexpected traffic challenges, Mircea ensured every stop was given the attention it deserved, never rushing us through. His friendly demeanor made the journey enjoyable and enriched our understanding of Romania’s culture and history. Truly the best guide we’ve ever had—thoughtful, passionate, and skilled. A day to remember forever!"

A great day with a lovely guide. Lots of driving! - Great but very long day. Our guide laura was lovely and very knowledgeable and accommodating. Peles castle was amazingly ostentatious. Rope Street is an alleyway covered in graffiti l wouldn't bother. The black church was a little disappointing the sand stone blocks were fake just painted white lines on render. But all in all a great day.

A great day out! - We had a great day with Mircea! He was very friendly and knowledgeable and gave us a great tour of the castles before we had some free time to explore Brasov. The car was comfortable and Mircea was very flexible around timings and itinerary. All in all a long but very enjoyable day out in the Romanian mountains!
