We had an amazing trip. Not only Romania is a beautiful country but it is also full of heart-warmed people. Cristian Caprioara was an over-the-top tour guide. He is knowledgeable, patient, and very caring. After visiting 45 countries with a dozen of tour guides, we certainly state that Cristian is definitely at the top. He manages to drive, schedule daily activities, describe places, and even recommend good eating places at the same time. Job well done!
As of the trip, the accommodations were fine and the car comfortable. All places were fantastic, full of history and gorgeous sightseeing. Finally, thank you so much for arranging a visit to the Palace of Parliament. Cristian from the first day was also a nice tour guide. This trip was an incredible journey. Thank you!

My friend and I both had an amazing trip around Transylvania and would definitely recommend the 4-day Transylvanian Castle Tour with Rolandia. I would say that if you can spare more time consider one of their longer tours as Romania has much to offer!
We booked onto a group tour but were the only participants so essentially had a private tour.
The booking process was easy and Ioana was quick, friendly and helpful when answering any queries over email.
Our tour guide, Dan, was fantastic! He has an incredible knowledge on the history his country and we enjoyed learning about the long and varied history of Transylvania and modern day Romania, both at sights and during the driving portions of the trip. Dan also went above and beyond to make sure we had the best trip possible - giving us restaurant recommendations, helping us get to where we needed to go after the tour, arranging for another great driver for an excursion we had booked, and just generally making sure we were comfortable.
The tour was well structured and covered great stops, including some that weren't part of similar tours (such as the amazing Corvin Castle). We were also lucky to go during the summer months which meant a trip over the Transfagarasan Highway.
Due to the nature of where sights are there was a lot of driving but the tour maximised the route to keep this at a minimum and this gave as the opportunity to see lots of the Romanian countryside and make the most of air conditioning during the summer heat. We were never rushed during any of our visits and felt the benefits of travelling with a local (such as being able to skip lines).
The hotels used were all very comfortable and well located close to the central areas of each town we stayed in so that we could easily explore at the end of the day.

The guide was great, we felt like we were spoiled, so thank you so much Rolandia!

On this tour we saw fabulous fortifications, castles, palaces, churches, and quaint towns and villages. We also experienced some local traditions. The arranged hotel accommodations could not have been better. Traveling the Transfagarasan Highway on the return to Bucharest had absolutely breathtakingly stunning scenery, not to mention the treat of seeing a brown bear.
Our guide, Laurentiu, is unquestionably top-notch. He had very knowledgeable and patient answers to diverse and sometimes difficult and abstract questions. He also had, as his first priority, much consideration for the tour members. This included their comfort, convenience, and enhancing their understanding of what they saw and experienced. He wanted to make sure that our expectations were met if not exceeded.

I have travelled with different tour companies before since I've been travelling on tours over Europe and South America, but Rolandia exceed my expecations. Medieval Transylvania tour was one of the best I've travelled to: Romania is a beautiful country with stunning scenery, and interesting history. Our tour guide Cristi was a very knowledgeable guide. He tells his narrative of Romanian's history delighting all of us. All in all, I was glad I took this tour and was sad that it was over so quick.

We traveled this year with our family and the sightseeing was amazing! This is a must do tour if you don't have that much time but you want to see the most in 4 days! Our tour guide Claudia was very punctual and informative and she picked us up from the hotel in time every morning.
The tour is very well thought, you get to see Dracula Castle, Corvin Castle and many other beautiful places, and you also experience a traditional lunch which is amazing!
The communication with the company was very good, they are prompt and they made sure we enjoy everything in this tour.
We booked the 3* hotels and all of them were nice and cozy, boutique style. The personnel was very kind to us, breakfasts had many options for all diets.
It is a bit tiring but after checking my gallery, it was well worth it :)
Thank you guys, we'll come back soon!

Ours was a private tour--just my husband and me with Nick, our guide. Nick spoke excellent English, conveyed the historic information in an entertaining way, and was a good driver, too. The accommodations were unique and memorable, with a great breakfast each morning. I especially liked visiting Corvin, Bran and Peles Castles. Getting my picture taken in front of Dracula's birthplace was an added treat. If you have just four days to see Romania, this is the perfect tour.
