Fantastic Day

A really fantastic tour. Our guide was knowledgeable and offered flexibility throughout the day to adjust the planned activities if we wanted. Long queues in summer at these sites but our guide times everything perfectly to avoid this and you also get to skip the queue at Bran Castle - which you definitely want to do! Great tour - highly recommended.
