Review of Brasov’s Peles, Bran, Rasnov and Sinaia tour, with castle tips, costs, timing, guide quality, closures and practical advice.
“I had been really looking forward to this trip since I had booked it. We arrived the day before the trip from 15hrs of travelling with no WiFi to messages from our guide telling us to buy the tickets for the castles we were visiting. I was able to get 2 out of the 3 tickets. We were picked up as arranged the next morning. The vehicle was comfortable but no water available. We arrived at the monastery 1st, had about 15 mins there. Then the 1st castle (no tickets for this 1- we were given option to pay cash but decided not to). 2nd castle, got a short tour…”

“First I would like to mention how wonderful our tour guide/ driver was. He was so attentive and informative. Would take his time explaining everything thoroughly and give us enough time to do what we wanted. The tour itself was so lovely. The two castles were worth the visit and we had plenty of time to view everything by ourselves. Definitely recommend this tour.”

Review of Brasov’s bear sanctuary, Bran Castle, and Rasnov Fortress tour, with practical tips on timing, guides, tickets, and value.
“This is the most beautiful & heartbreaking place to visit. The life story behind these bears is horrifying. I am very grateful to the staff of this sanctuary & the professionalism they provide. I really appreciate how the bears quality of life comes first. Long before tourism, for example they only offer morning tours & they limit how many can visit per day. It was my pleasure to visit, learn & see the growth of some of these bears that were brought here from terrifying conditions & environments. To see how they have overcome these terrors by the love, joy & gentle care from the staff is heartwarming. May you…”

“Traian, our tour guide, led a small group with extraordinary professionalism, extensive knowledge, and gracious patience. The 3 Castles tour was so outstanding that we went on to book the UNESCO heritage highlights, where Traian again guided with remarkable expertise. Only wish we had more days to spend in Brasov in order to enjoy this company’s expertness.”
Review of the Brasov Transfagarasan tour, Balea Lake, Vidraru Dam, and Poienari Fortress, with costs, timing, tips, and seasonal limits.
“Our tour guide Charlie was really great! The day before the tour we received communication for where to meet and the day of our tour he arrived promptly. On the day of our tour there was a biking race that caused parts of the Transfagarasan Road to be closed, however I think the company handled it very professionally. They gave us the option to do the tour on another day or postpone the trip by about 4 hours so that we can still see the road and do the tour. We opted to postpone by 4 hours and we had a lovely time on the tour. Charlie was very knowledgeable…”
Review of a private Brasov tour to Peles, Bran, and Rasnov, with practical advice on timing, costs, lunch, castle access, and value.
“Adrian drove us in air conditioned comfort from Brasov to the famous Transylvania sites. Our first stop was Peles Castle, which, in our opinion, is only rivaled by Versailles. Adrian‘s insights made our sightseeing much more enriching, and his ability to maneuver us through the very crowded Bran Castle was very fortuitous for us. My husband and I would highly recommend this excursion to anyone (without mobility issues) who wishes to see and understand Transylvania.”

“We made the mistake of taking a 4yr old child that wasn’t able to go in to the sanctuary, so he stayed outside with Dad. It makes sense, the bears are rescued and nervous. The rest of the trip was lovely. Thoroughly enjoyed Bran castle, and whilst Râşnov fortress is just ruins, the view was beautiful. Our driver was friendly and helpful.”
