A small-group, full day tour of three castles from Brasnov with a knowledgeable, experienced driver/guide
Todd_E, Jun 2026
What a great host.. accommodated to the fact that the tickets were purchased for the wrong times. Very informative.. very comfortable !
tristen_o, Jun 2026
Such a great tour! We visited 3 castles plus a momentary. Admission to the castles was not included but also it wasn’t super expensive to enter. The tour was small just 2 couples. Our tour guide was very informative and gave a lot of great history on Romania and the area. Definitely recommend!
Response from Host, Jun 2026
Thank you for the wonderful review! We are very happy to hear that everything - from the booking to the schedule and communication - met your expectations. It is wonderful that the visit to Bran Castle was such a memorable moment and that the tour made it easy to explore all three tourist attractions in one day.
We also thank you for your appreciation of our guide and we will forward your review to him.

Even before the tour began this company was amazingly helpful. We have found some tours to be too rushed but this not only introduced you some of the great sites of the world but also allowed breaks to really enjoy and take in what you were seeing. What can I say about Traian? He was amazing making sure all our experiences were perfect. He was the master tour guide!
Response from Host, Jun 2026
Thank you for the wonderful review and the kind words used. I am glad that you appreciated the services offered by the guide Traian, he is professional and does his job very well. We look forward to your return and to offering you other wonderful experiences.
All teh best

Judith_O, May 2026
Peles visit was a little rushed. Perhaps a slower tour of the castle and half an hour less in Bran
Bran castle was just about to close at 2pm today so we had to have a long delayed lunch and felt again rushed through our visit.
And Rasnov was closed for renovation so disappointing to.miss that with no advance notice
Response from Host, May 2026
Thank you for the review. You were not rushed at all, what you say is false, on the contrary, you were offered private tours of Peles Castle, Cantacuzino and Bran as well. But sometimes people like you are more difficult and harder to please no matter how hard we try, but it is a shame about the effort we made to offer you all the conditions during the tour.

Nicholas_D, Apr 2026
It was nice to be driven to the castles along with a private tour from the guide. He was very informative and kept the conversation flowing with a lot of information about the areas we were visiting. I would recommend it - even in a rainy day, it was still a great experience.
Response from Host, Apr 2026
Thank you for the review and for the kind words about the organization of the tour. We are glad that we were able to give you a beautiful day on this tour of the 3 castles.

We had an absolutely outstanding experience with our tour guide Traian, who truly made the entire trip unforgettable. From the very beginning, he was warm, welcoming, and incredibly knowledgeable, setting the perfect tone for the journey ahead.
What impressed me most was his deep understanding of the history, culture, and hidden gems of each location we visited. He told engaging stories that brought every place to life. It felt like we weren’t just sightseeing, but really connecting with the destination on a deeper level.
His organization and professionalism were also exceptional. Everything ran smoothly and on time, yet never.
On top of that, their enthusiasm was contagious. You could tell he genuinely loves what he does, and that passion made the experience even more enjoyable. Whether it was recommending local food spots, sharing insider tips, or adding a bit of humor along the way, they consistently went above and beyond.
I would highly recommend this tour guide to anyone looking for a memorable and enriching travel experience. He turned a great trip into an extraordinary one.
Response from Host, Mar 2026
Thank you very much Serine, for the review of the 3 castles tour Peles, Bran, Rasnov and also for the warm words used in the description.
Our guide Traian is truly passionate about this job, he really likes history and the places he shows you. We try and mostly succeed, through the comfort of the luxury Mercedes Vklass vans, with which we organize the excursions, through the experience of the guides, to offer our tourists unforgettable experiences in beautiful Romania. We look forward to seeing you again to show you other beautiful places in Transylvania.
All the best.

Traian was very knowledgeable and took great care of us on our tour. He ensured we were given important information on the history and culture of Romania and in particular, the region of Transylvania. We were picked up promptly in a convenient location and travelled in comfortable transport, spotless inside and out.
His expertise in guiding us through the 3 castle visit was invaluable in making our trip one to remember. I could not recommend it enough! He also had a great rapport with the secretaries of the places we visited, gaining us private access ahead of the queues to make our trip extra special.
Excellent opportunities to stand and wonder at some of the region's most beautiful sites, Traian also took the time to take our pictures to ensure we kept the best memories of our time there.
An excellent service, 5 stars!!

VIP experience that can only come from a professional. We were brought to the front of every line while the guide explained the history in depth. Highly recommended.

Fanatic tour. Traian, who owns the company, was a fantastic guide. Encyclopedic knowledge and great delivery/humor. He adeptly navigated huge tour groups, got us ahead of (some rather testy) crowds at Pelles, and liaised with the castle staff, who clearly love him. The castle is amazing. The Sinaia monastery is small and a quick stop, but worth it. We entered during an Orthodox service but were not unwelcome. At Bran, he taught me which stalls had real Romanian goods (as opposed to fakes made abroad). Note that tickets to Bran are sold separately and that the castle does not allow guides; however, Traian gave me a great primer before I entered. Bran is, not surprisingly, VERY touristy. And not super impressive inside. Lots of other tour highlights, but too many for a review. Highly recommend this tour.

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 and short time in grounds. Then the 3rd castle- we had tickets but the wait was 2hrs long so we were told to scan a qr code to pay extra for fast track. Us and 2 other couples had problems- our money was taken but no verification of ticket. Our guide paid for our tickets ( we paid him back).Eventually we got in, approx 40 minutes later, left to our own devices in what I can only describe as a slow moving queue. Our guide gave us a 5 minute brief beforehand on the castle as he wasn't allowed into the castle. We were barely out of the castle when we got a phone call from our guide saying he had to return in his car to go back with others from the trip so we felt obliged to return to our car waiting. The only positives from this trip were the safe driving and calm demeanor of our driver and the gorgeous scenery.
Response from Host, Nov 2025
This review unfortunately is a gross misrepresentation of that day.
Firstly the links for you to get the tickets where set 12 of October not 12 hours before with travel date on the 31 you had more then 2 weeks to purchase them!
Secondly water was available you didn’t ask me once for any!
Regarding the Bran castle I fail to see how this is my fault as it was there system that didn’t allow the purchase of the fastpass ticket reason, also to mention the other 8 customers on that day had NO issues. I was the one that was running around trying to help you and ended up paying cash as the castle didn’t had card options. Yes we had to leave as you booked a shared experience I repeat it was not our fault the Bran castle system didn’t work.
Also you received a FULL refund for the Bran castle tickets because I went and explained to management what happened!
Denis_F, Oct 2025
Very interesting tour. Excelent guide. The tour covers several aspects: historical,hollywoodean,legends and beauty. A must tour when in Romania.
Nikolaos_V, Oct 2025
It was without a doubt a wonderful experience .The guide was extremely helpful and offered a unique and interesting tour. In general, that I would recommend this particular tour to all my friends.
Elah74, Oct 2025
Our driver was knowledgeable. He cared that people on the tour enjoyed their destinations and he found an excellent substitution when one of our locations closed. It was an improvement, in my opinion and it made for a memorable dream weekend away to Transylvania!!!
Elizabeth_M, Oct 2025
This was the best thing we did during our vacation. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and we loved hearing about each stop. I recommend this as opposed to doing it solo!
connie_v, Oct 2025
This tour was an extraordinary experience from start to finish! Everything was perfectly organized, the guide was amazing, and every moment felt special. I would absolutely recommend it to anyone looking for something truly unforgettable.
Jon_V, Oct 2025
Excellent all round. It really couldn't have been better - our guide was very knowledgable and went out of his way to make sure we got the best out of each visit. Highly recommended.
JeanneMarie_R, Sep 2025
Great tour of castles. Also enjoyed the drive to each place. Seeing the Peles castle with original furniture was a great treat since most castles had everything taken Claudiu was a very knowledgeable guide. With a great dry sense of humor!
Keith_C, Sep 2025
Our guide was exceptional, he went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of. Very knowledgeable and friendly
Jodie_E, Sep 2025
Started earlier than listed (7am), but this was good as we went to Peles Castle first before it got real busy. The tour wasn't rushed & the guide was good although a bit hard to understand at times due to accent. Peles Castle was the highlight for us, absolutely gorgeous decorations & furniture. Rasnov was undergoing renovations, so we went to the castle where "Wednesday" was filmed instead.
Laura_C, Sep 2025
We had a wonderful trip our guide was very knowledgeable with so much history Ii made our experience even better. Stopped so we could take pictures and was always helpful. Truly recommend this trip.
Sarah_C, Jul 2025
Great tour with lots of great information. The guide/driver was very professional and flexible. He was knowledgeable and showed a love for his country.
Holly_P, Jun 2025
Really great tour in a nice van, with pick-up right by our Airbnb. The fortress was closed for repairs so we had a switch to an alternate castle location. Everything was prompt with great information, small group, with a stop for coffee and lunch. Definitely happy to be in a smaller group getting front of the line access vs large tour bus groups
SinHanBelinda_L, Jun 2025
We had a fantastic tour of Peles, Bran, and Cantacuzino Castles. Our guide was exceptional and extremely knowledgeable. He helped us bypass the crowds at Peles Castle, allowing us to be the first to enter and feel like VIPs. We thoroughly enjoyed our tour!
JanisNelson, Jun 2025
The local tour company Discovery Transylvania and manager/guide Traian Bichea were knowledgeable and professional and caring and fun. He educated and entertained and spoiled us. A great tour of the castles (especially Bran) combined with an excellent recommendation for lunch and time for shopping. Highly recommend this tour and this tour company/guide.
Adam_S, Jun 2025
Traian Bichea is an exceptional tour guide and driver. We were picked up from our apartment in Brasov promptly and given an overview of the tour during the drive to Sinaia, with facts of the area en-route. There were some slight deviations due to some castles being closed on the day we were visiting. Traian had some good back-up locations including Cantacuzino Castle as used as the filming location for the 'Wednesday' [Addams] TV series (as Nevermore Academy); he knew all there was to know about every location we visited. The ride was relaxed, comfortable and narrated exceptionally well between stops. Traian advised how to book tickets, became our translator when dealing with locals and also offered suggestions for lunch/drinks, citing personal experience. The whole day was paced really well, it didn't feel rushed and we were able to tailor it to our suit our needs where possible. I thoroughly recommend this tour, you won't be disappointed and you'll come away from it a more learned individual.
Marissa_C, Jun 2025
Excellent all encompassing tour of several castles! Our guide was very knowledgeable about the castles and Transylvania in general. The can was comfortable and tour size was small making it easier to enjoy. I would recommend this tour.
