Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Pass By: Romanian Athenaeum (Ateneul Roman), Str. Franklin 1, Bucharest Romania

Meet with your guide and set out for your Transylvania trip.

Stop At: Peles Castle, Str. Pelesului 2, Sinaia 106100 Romania

Start your day trip with Peles Castle (inside visit), set in the scenic mountain resort of Sinaia, also called the Pearl of the Carpathians. Tour the Romanian royal family’s former summer residence, which showcases a magnificent palace in the German Renaissance style. Built at the foot of the mountains between 1873 and 1914 by Carol I, the first Romanian king, the palace is considered one of the most beautiful of its kind in Europe.

Duration: 2 hours

Stop At: Brasov Historical Center, Piazza Sfatului, Brasov Romania

Next is the town of Brasov, previously known as Kronstadt. Its well-kept historical center filled with centuries-old homes connected by small streets paved with cobblestone retains its German medieval charm. Your walking tour of this lovely town starts from the main square, which features the Gothic Black Church (BisericaNeagră – inside visit), old City Hall, watch towers, walls around the former citadel, and the narrowest street in Europe.

Duration: 1 hour

Stop At: Bran Castle (Dracula's Castle), Str. General Traian Mosoiu nr. 24, Bran 507025 Romania

Final stop at Bran Castle, commonly known as Dracula’s Castle (inside visit). The imposing construction, originally built as a fortress at the former border between Wallachia and Transylvania, looks out over a valley from its strategic position. The function of this medieval landmark is evident through its grandiose towers as well as its winding narrow staircases and passages. The Gothic appearance adds to the allure while you learn about its infamous ruler, Vlad the Impaler, and its legendary vampire.

Conclude your tour with return transport to your hotel in Bucharest.

Duration: 2 hours

Many thanks to our guide Andrei, everything was well organized, no lines, no waiting for entering, fast good driving from one sight to another. Moreover the information that he gave us about the history of the castles, about the history of Romania and the country itself was very interesting. We got also tips where it is better to go for lunch or to drink coffee or where is the best view to make a foto. It was really great time!) Thank you

We were really excited by the visit to Transylvania, and it was great! Our guide Paul was very knowledgeable and knew how to get us around. Peles Palace was very surprising - richly decorated and beautiful! The day had a lot of driving (which was the only downside - busy weekend traffic and construction). Bran castle is worth visiting, and we enjoyed the Romanian-style meal and stroll through Brasov.. Highly recommended.

Travel to beautiful Transilvania, visiting the beautiful Peles Castle, the charming city of Brashov and the long-awaited Dracula (Vlad) Castle. Friendly and competent guide, knowledgeable of the history and geography of Romania. Comfortable vehicle with the advantage of being only 8 passengers which allowed to ask questions and talk about Romania. Negative point: the intense traffic, with road under construction, so more time than road to visit and the fact that they do not enjoy the mystique and charm of Dracula's figure

We had a very good day with Razvan. He is a knowledgeable guide, a sensible driver and a nice, friendly guy. He discussed our options at each stop, and was clear with his meeting times and places, so the day ran smoothly. I would recommend this tour.

Despite of the rain, our tour guide Razvan made sure that we had a wonderful time. He is a jolly person and knows his stuff. He answers our questions and patiently explains to us the details. Razvan is great guide and a very safe driver.

Hotel pickup was prompt at 8. Andree knew and shared so much about Romania. The Pele's castle was so interesting and eclectic. Andree recommendation for lunch in Brasov was tasty and his tour of churches informative. He knew how to avoid crowds timewise so our later visit to Bran castle was great. Excellent driver, so important on windy mountain roads. Spectacular scenery!

Paul gave us a breathtaking insight of Transylvania and we enjoyed every single second of this journey into the exciting history and beautiful nature of Romania! We learned more in these 12 hours about Romania than any single book could have done and we highly enjoyed his joyful company! Thumbs up!

Great tour, Paul was an excellent and funny guide. We could see a lot of Romania in just one day. Unfortunately on the way back there was a lot of traffic and it took us more than 4 hours to get back to Bucharest. Nevertheless I would do the same tour again.
