10/10 guide. Go with Florin if you want to see the famous Romanain sites.

David_G, May 2024

10/10. I don't think I would have enjoyed my day half as much in these places without Florin. He brings a lot tot he experience and is very well priced for what you get. Florin picked me up right from my hotel, I didn't have to wait a minute longer than the agreed time. He drove very well and I felt safe the entire trip. He speaks very good English and has a much more detailed knowledge of the area's history. At two locations, other guides overheard him telling me about the sites, and they asked him for the stories! He is very patient but at the same time won't waste time on anything you're not interested in. He is very enthusiastic and brings the spots you visit to life with his stories. As a solo traveler, I couldn't be happier with how my day tour went. We saw Bran, Rasnov and Peles. Learning the history and purpose of each place from Florin helped with perspective. He's a stand up guy and you'll have a great time with him.

Great tour

Had a great day out. Florin was really knowledgeable. He was helpful with finding the best affordable lunch place near Bran castle. I would highly recommend.

Thank you!

Great trip

Matthew_F, Nov 2022

Peles castle alone made the trip worth it. Brans castle and raznov was just extra on top. Florin, the tour guide, had a wonderful amount of knowledge about historic events of sites visited. Well worth the trip!

Castles tour from Brasov

Great day out with Florin a very knowledgeable and good company. The fact that the tour is private makes it so much more enjoyable and you get to take your time everywhere. This trip was the highlight of our stay in Brașov and we'd highly recommend it to everyone. We wish Florin all the best in his business!

Great way to spend the day.

Peles Palace was the high point. Florin did a great job. He did a great job of navigating the traffic and made we got in all of the sights.

Amazing, absolutely worth it!

Elisabetta_C, Sep 2021

Florin is a great guide. He picked me up on time at the accommodation. We went in the morning already to avoid the crowd and traffic which was a great idea. I loved his knowledge and explanations, he answered all the questions I had, and he was flexible. I had the chance to take all the time I wanted in the castles. It is clear that he is an experienced guide, so I definetly recommend this tour a lot! It is a great way to see and get to know all 3 places in 1 day.

Great day.

Damjana_M, Aug 2019

We had great time seeing all 3 castles. Florin was a good guide. Very interesting, well worth the visit.

Everything was amazing. The guide knows...

Cyro_N, Jan 2018

Everything was amazing. The guide knows lots of romanian history. I would do it again.

Ottima scelta

svetlana_b, Sep 2024

La Visita al castello di Peles meritava propio, quella al castello di Bran un pò meno. Il resto tutto ok!

Zauberhafte Tour

Barbara_E, Jul 2023

Schloss Peles war am schönsten und mit allen 3 Etagen, plus kleines Schlösschen der Königin Maria, absolut sehenswert. Wir haben da ungefähr 3-4 Stunden verbracht. Florin unser Guide hat uns sehr viele interessante Informationen gegeben über die Geschichte des Königshauses und der Region. Sehr gut, Peles am Morgen zu besuchen. Denn die Festung Bran am frühen Nachmittag war sehr besucht, Warteschlange ca. 150m und dann Geschiebe durch die Räume (der berüchtigte Gruselfaktor?). Aber wie gesagt nicht so schlimm, denn inhaltlich waren wir noch gesättigt von Peles. Die Folterausstellung ist sehenswert und auch weniger voll, denn man braucht dafür ein Extraticket. Der dritte Teil, Rasnov, ist eine Festung, die nur von außen zu besichtigen war und teils von der Natur zurückerobert. Sie wurde und wird gerne als Filmkulisse genutzt. Man hat von oben eine tolle Aussicht über das ganze weite Tal und die Berge ringsum. Florin ist super sympathisch. Er geht auf alle Fragen und Wünsche ein und weiß sehr viel zu erzählen. Herzlichen Dank an Florin für diesen schönen Tag!

Thank you very much!

Castillo de Peles y tour muy recomendable.

Jess_M, Jan 2023

Florian es un apasionado de su tierra, tiene mucho conocimiento de la historia y detalles de interés de la zona. Nos acompañó desde el hotel hasta los diferentes castillos y dentro de la ruta nos dejó libertad para decidir en todo momento. Sin duda un tour totalmente recomendable, sin lugar a dudas el Castillo de Peles lo mejor. Nos faltó tiempo para otros tours de interés, pero sin duda, si volvemos a Rumanía tendremos en nuestras preferencias viajar con Florian.
