So, where to start.. Bran Castle, right up my street, higglety pigglety inside, lovely courtyard and grounds. Worth going in. You do not get enough time at this stop to enjoy it properly. Peles castle, not my thing, hadn’t planned to go in but felt guilted into it by the guide, Dani. In fact a group near me on the coach told him they were not going in and his displeasure was obvious and uncomfortable. No working toilets at this stop. Most of the outside covered for renovations. I would have preferred to walk round the beautiful town it was situated in. This was also our first stop and we were marched straight into the castle after roughly two hours on a coach where it wasn’t stipulated beforehand that you couldn’t eat. It’s an early start and I’d brought breakfast to eat during the journey… nope. Had to wait til after the castle… Braşov, okay, pretty, time pressured again. But glad I saw it. The guide…. Dani. He will give you a speech about respect but he will not show you any. He will loudly embarrass you in front of everyone. A group asked a question about the time to be back at the coach, he said loudly ‘this will be the third time I’ve told you, you will find out in the last room of the castle’ they explained (for the second time) that they were not going into the castle.. he didn’t say sorry.. He was insistent that people late to the coach sing for everyone. Yes, it made most people turn up on time, but he seems genuinely perplexed that those who were one minute late (any later and you had to dance too) didn’t want to sing to a group of strangers! He also had no time for those needing extra assistance or consideration, shouting ‘medical reasons are not an excuse, I don’t care’ more than once. Not so respectful after all. He nearly made me cry, I won’t say why, but once he realised he was in the wrong (too late) he spent the rest of the trip trying to befriend me in a most obvious way. But he never said sorry. On the other hand, the coach driver was excellent. Navigating some difficult roads due to road closures and diversions with skill. Coach was lovely and clean. Made friends because they came to comfort me after the way the guide treated me, they thought he was abhorrent. Guide, Dani. One star. Do not recommend.

Trip2RO was company. Mihai, guide & Niku, driver were over the top! Learned extraordinary amt of history & info on area, culture, sites etc. from Mihai! He’s the best!

If you only do one day tour outside of Bucharest then this is the one to do. Peles Castle, Braşov, and of course Dracula’s Castle in Bran are must visits and we visited all 3 during this tour. Otilia was our tour guide and Julian was our bus driver. Both of them did a fantastic job leading and driving us throughout the whole day so a big thank you to both of them. Unfortunately when we went to Peles Castle we couldn’t go inside as they were closed on Tuesdays during this month when we went but it was still a beauty from the outside where the construction wasn’t happening. Braşov was a charming little city and of course visiting Bran Castle, aka Dracula’s Castle, was the main highlight of the tour. I learned a lot from Otilia during our tour, a big thank you once more to her for the giving us valuable historical insight on every place we visited. I got to take lots of great pictures and videos at all the places we went to. Lots of walking should be expected so wear comfy shoes and bring a backpack with other things you might need like sunscreen or an umbrella. We started the tour at 7:30 am in the morning, be sure you arrive at the meeting point at least 15 minutes prior, and we were back at the same point in Bucharest a little bit later than anticipated at around 8 pm due to unexpected traffic but that’s ok. Overall once more it was a great tour! I highly recommend it when you’re in Bucharest! - Nolan

We had a tour guide called Vlad, very friendly, positive and helpful. The bus was lovely and clean, and already waiting for us at the meeting point even though we were very early. Vlad clearly laid out the plan for day and timings, including when we would likely stop for coffee & food. He even sent everyone a WhatsApp message the morning of, confirming the pick up details. Since it was a Monday, Peles castle was closed (Closed on Mondays & Thursdays). But to make up for that, Vlad promised us a walking tour at Brasov. The day was laid out like this: (7:30 am - 7:30 pm) 7:15 Pick-up. 2 hour drive. Peles castle from outside & coffee 1 hour. Drive 1 hour. Brasov walking tour 30 minutes. Lunch in Brasov 1 hour 30 minutes. Drive 1 hour Bran castle 1 hour 30 minutes. Drive 2 hours. Toilet stop at gas station. Drive 1 hour. Peles was hands down the best bit. The castle and gardens were stunning and the cafe overlooking the forest was a wonderful place for a morning coffee. Brasov was beautiful, Vlad recommended local cuisine and there was lots of shops to entertain you. Bran castle is a tourist trap. Absolutely heaving with people, honestly not worth the 10 minute claustrophobic walk since you don't get a chance to read any of the signs of properly look at the exhibits. But luckily Vlad, our tour guide, have us a run down of the history in the bus. The tour company were great, they made the travelling super easy and we got to see things we wouldn't have otherwise. Highly recommend this tour for people who want to see more of Romania!

My friend and I had a wonderful day trip from Bucharest to Dracula's Castle, Peles Castle, and Brasov. The tour was well-organized, and our guide provided all the necessary information while giving us plenty of time to explore each site. Despite some traffic on the way back, which was unavoidable due to the weekend and village roads, the overall experience was excellent. Highly recommend this tour for a hassle-free and informative journey through Romania's stunning landmarks.

Great informative trip, Adrian was a great guide. The only downside was how busy it was at Peles Castle, nothing the tour company can do about that though. Very long day but fun!

Very nice experience, we got to see the castles and brasov city . Our guide Petru or Petros for us was brilliant and very helpful. Our driver Johnny was the king of the street and he deserves a Lamborghini . We recommend it to everyone visiting Romania for first time .

An amazing day out. Alex is super knowledgeable, friendly, helpful, kind and crack jokes too ! Recommend 100❤️🇷🇴❤️🇷🇴

Great tour around the 2 beautiful castles and also the city of Brasov. The guide was very knowledgeable, friendly and clearly enjoyed talking about these things. Thank you very much Adrian for a great tour.

Great to combine multiple castles and towns into a single trip. Was high season so was super busy but the tour guide held our spot in the queue and allowed us to explore on our own. Generally there was a lot of independence and enough time at each location to learn, discover and chill

I absolutely loved the tour, especially with Adrian as the tour guide. He is very knowledgeable and can tell the history of Romania in a fun manner. Visiting Brasov and the castles was a nice addition to my trip to Bucharest and I would recommend this to anyone!

Great trip, great guide and driver. Definitely recommend. Although be prepared to not be back in Bucharest until as late as 2200hrs.

Great tour. Worth the travel. Tour guide was awesome. Thank you for the amazing experience. Highly recommended tour guide.

Schedule time too nsrrow, based on traffico jam to Bucharest. But was interesting two different castle, and the stories around them. Boring the traffic but this do not depend on organizer.

This was such a great day out. I would highly recommend it. It’s worth visiting both castles as they are very different and both impressive. The information shared by our guide was great- he was very knowledgeable and helpful (though the sound system on the bus made it hard to catch it all at times but it was much clearer in the castle). Our family of six adults all thoroughly enjoyed it.
