Tours of Peles Castle and Bran Castle along with the cities of Brasov and Sibiu. Wonderful scenes while riding through Transylvania. Our guide, Alex, was the best. Very knowledgeable of the area and its history. Also I'm a nervous passenger but felt at east with his driving.

Definitely recommendable

We had an amazing 3-day tour with Marius. His detailed explanation made the places we visited more exquisite. We will go back to Japan with an unforgettable memory as a souvenir, thanks to him. The most favorite place is Peles Castle. This castle is breathtakingly beautiful, so you cannot miss it.

Our tour guide Sergio was wonderful & I would recommend him. Very informative & helpful. He recommended us a few restaurants & we tried all of it. Didn’t disappoint us at all.

Reliable-Friendly-On Time-Plenty of good reasons having a guide/driver

Susan_J, Sep 2023

Communication on pick up was very clear, I have found most international use WhatsApp so be sure to have that downloaded. From pick up at our hotel, driving through the countryside, sightseeing the castles, checking into hotels with perfect central locations, recommendations on where to eat, stopping when needed, and finally the drop off at our hotel 3 days later, was the highlight of our 2 week trip in Eastern Europe! Honestly, our guide/driver, Ovi, was very professional and friendly. He is filled with knowledge and history of his country. The company provides very clean and safe transportation, which is key when you rely on a skilled driver also. I would definitely use this firm again if given the opportunity. Thank you so much for a wonderful experience Ovi! All four of us enjoyed our trip!

Great trip

Went back to the medieval time -Romania is a hidden jewel in Europe

Champakali_B, Jan 2023

We booked the tour through viator. Customer service was very nice. Called them twice before I booked the tour. Then I have contacted tour operation multiple times for different reasons and they are very swift to answer. Our tour guide Marius was wonderful. He took care almost everything. Even after we done for the days trip he said call him if we need anything during night. And the Romania is beautiful. It's kind of the feeling we got that we went back to time. Hotels are nice and clean. One hotel does not have elevator.But the location of the hotel was marvelous. This trip is worth for the every penny I spend. I want to go back in summer again.

Excellent tour

This 3 day tour was excellent. First of all Razvan was a fantastic tour guide. He provided us with great information about the country, history of the sights and history of the country and he was so friendly, knowledgeable and a great driver. The tour touched all the area of interest for us. Accommodations were fantastic in Sibiu and Brasov. Loved how Razvan explained Dracula legend with true history. We just wish we would have purchased the picture fee for the Peles castle with the entrance fee. The drive of the country was spectacular. What a beautiful country. Thank you Razvan with One Excellence Tours.
