The tour to Peles and Cantacuzino castles comprises beauty and history in one. Peles is Europe's first electrified castle with all modern utilities including central heating, running hot and cold water, central vacuum cleaner, an electrical elevator and much more already from the beginning of the 20th century. Visiting Peles Castle is almost like being inside an art work itself, every step we take inside we get mesmerized by every small detail, the different carvings, paintings and furniture piece competing with well known castles and palaces around the world. Cantacuzino Castle was the summer home of a well known politician of the 19th century Grigore Cantacuzino. He used to be one of the wealthiest man in Romania at that time and decided to construct this authentic monument with a breathtaking panorama to the Bucegi Mountains. The Castle constructed in Neo-Romanian architectural style is surrounded with alleys and pathways which lead to fountains, waterfalls and small caves.

Transylvania is the land of bloodthirsty vampires and Gothic-style castles and in this tour, you will see them both. Many have visited the castle in the light of the day, but few had the courage to explore it during the night. As the sun sunk behind the mountains, Bran Castle is silently waiting for its guests. You will reach Bran and to enter into the spooky atmosphere, our ‘vampire’ helpers will be waiting for you with capes and lanterns, and prepare us for a night tour. Your spooky experience begins when you walk into the castle, where the decorations, dimmed light and storyline surround you in a medieval atmosphere of long gone times. At the end of the tour, you will descend into a time tunnel that will take you to the old Tea House of Maria, Queen of Romania.

Ian_K, Jun 2026

Enjoyable day

Really enjoyable tour of the two major castles (Bran & Peles) with a visit to a third (Cantucuzino) as well. The guided tours of Bran & Peles are must-dos, but less so Cantucuzino though - many of us paid to do it as it was raining heavily at the time, but really you could save yourself the money and just spend the time in the gardens. We could have used a bit more time at both Bran and Peles - I appreciate the tour company want to show you as much as they can, while they need to allow for traffic between the various sites too, but both felt a little rushed. Shout out for tour guide Alin (Maya Tours) who did a great job both as driver and guide for our bus.

Interesting trip. Would recommend.

Interesting tour with Christian who was a great guide. A tip for others travelling. Bring something warmer to wear than you think you need. At first the 55 degree temperature feels fine but after an hour as your body temperature drops more it gets pretty chilly.

Heather_F, Jun 2026

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.

"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.
