Transylvania is amazing.

Dahlin_T, May 2026
We had a fantastic time in Transylvania. Marius was an extraordinary guide who provided so much information. Go to the bear sanctuary. Such a great cause. My only complaint is the viator app removed my trip details before the trip was finished so I could not obtain trip infrmation. I dont know why the information would ever be removed.

Best way to see Transylvania!!!

Highly recommend this trip. Our guide Bianca is the best! We had some great luck being able to partake in a couple festivals including the Ravasitul Oilor Autumn Festival in Bran, Oktoberfest in Brasov, and even the first snow on the Transfăgărășan Rd. Our accommodations were at Casa Timar - the owners of the B&B, Lili is the sweetest! We had such a great time and even my Romanian friends said we really had the full experience!

Response from Host, Feb 2026

Thank you so much for this incredible review! 😊 What an amazing combination of experiences — the Răvășitul Oilor Festival in Bran, Oktoberfest in Brașov, and even the first snow on the Transfăgărășan! You truly caught Transylvania at its most authentic and magical moments. 🍂❄️ We’re also so happy you enjoyed your stay at Casa Timiș and that Lili made you feel at home — those personal touches make all the difference. Hearing that even your Romanian friends said you had the full experience is the best compliment we could receive! Thank you for trusting us with your journey, and we hope to welcome you back for another unforgettable adventure. 🇷🇴✨ Warm regards, Bogdan Transylvania Discovery Tours
