Count Dracula, first appeared in the novel “Dracula”, published in England in 1897, by the Irish writer Bram Stoker. But the name “Dracula”, far from being a frightening term, derives from the Crusader Order of the Dragon with which Order both Vlad Tepes and his father had been associated. The rest of the Dracula myth derives from the legends and popular beliefs in ghosts and vampires prevalent throughout Transylvania.

Beautiful castles

Our guide Mario did a good job keeping all the participants in line. I think we had about 20 people in our group. I felt like he was giving attention of each one of us throughout. He gave us a plenty of time at each location. He was flexible and went above and beyond for those who needed extra attention.

Excellent value tour

A lovely tour with the friendly and knowledgeable Alin. He took us to the Bear Sanctuary and then to Bran Castle. He knew lots about both places. On the way there and back he pointed out other places of interest and stopped several times so we could take photos. He was friendly and chatty and I would have no hesitation in recommending him. Thank you Alin.

One day trip Bear Sanctuary, Dracula Castle, Rasnov Fortress from Brasov

karencumstoun, May 2026

"Fangtastic" day!

The tour does not include entrance tickets & we were concerned that Libearty bear sanctuary tickets could sell out, however as soon as we booked we had a WhatsApp from the operator advising us to immediately book tickets for a specific time slot for Libearty. The guide picked us up on time at the arranged location, and was friendly and informative throughout the trip. The bear sanctuary was amazing, the in house guide told us the stories of the bears and we were lucky enough to see them being fed. We saw around 30 bears. We then carried on to Bran (Dracula's!) castle where our guide helped us purchase tickets and arranged a meeting point. He gave us information about the castle before we went in. Be aware there are a lot of steps in the castle and staircases were steep and narrow. We spent around an hour and a half in the castle before meeting our guide to go to Rasnov Fortress. Our guide took us to the fortress, helped us with funicular tickets, and accompanied us the the fortress entrance. Although the actual fortress is closed for repairs ( which we were aware of) we had great views from the inner courtyard. Our guide then drove us back to Brasov, arriving at 3.30pm. We would definitely recommend this tour - it made visiting the sanctuary and castle so much easier than by Uber or public transport.

Sighisoara and Viscri Private Full-Day Tour from Brasov

Barbara_B, May 2026

Great experience greater guide!!

I have difficulty walking and my husband is an avid photographer. Radu immediately sensed my needs and my husband’s desires. He was willing to adjust our schedule to make this experience wonderful for both of us. He stopped along the road many times for pictures knowing the perfect spot and angle for the best shots. He was very diligent in making sure I was safe and comfortable. I was certainly able to see more because he cared. He knew to take us to a shuttle so I could experience Sighisoara without much walking. Radu was exceptionally considerate with both me and my husband. And to top it off he had a great sense of humor. Ramona at the office was quickly responsive every time we had a question. I would highly recommend their wonderful experience.

Excellent trip with Valentin

We had an excellent trip with Valentin. He took us all the planned locations, gave us enough time to explore on our own as well as shared a lot of information on Romania. The best part was the conversations wr had on the long drives since Valentin is well aware of the world in general i.e. geo politics, world history, current affairs, culture, etc., which made our trip so much better. Highly recommended.

Peles Castle, Bran Castle, Rasnov Fortress and Sinaia Monastery Tour from Brasov

Jordan_G, Nov 2025

Guide with a heart. ❤️🐈‍⬛

The castles, fortress, and monastery were great. Our guide was very knowledgeable. But that’s not the highlight of the trip. We parked to go to the castle and we heard a cat meowing. We followed the sound to a pipe sticking out of the ground - it went about 2M in to the ground and there was a kitten stuck at the bottom. Our guide called for help on her phone and some employees from the restaurant came out and we spent about 30-45 minutes rescuing the kitten (we tried many methods). We were successful and I think everyone felt better for sticking around and doing the right thing. We are certainly taking home a unique memory from the trip.
