5.00First of all, Florin was a fantastic guide with fluency in english and spanish with interesting facts about the area and the castles! the tour itself was quite great, the only thing I wished for was a little more time in both castles, to try to see it in not such a hush and to see the little souvenir shops around them. aside from that, 100% recommended
Highly recommend

5.00Toured with Florin, who was exceptionally knowledgeable. Castle Bran has a decent inclined path to reach the castle. Pelles Palace was the most beautiful castle I have toured ever. It is a must see and well worth the time. Interesting to see both in the same day. Florin did a flawless job of translating between two languages, but actually speaks four. He made our day entertaining and informative. We enjoyed this day trip very much. Also, the tour takes you on a winding mountain road with some start and stop traffic for parts of it. I took some dramamine-it would have not been pretty without it! Just a heads up to people who may have motion sickness!
Great experience

5.00Great experience, good driving and organization. Surely the castle of Peles is much more impressive than the castle of Bran.

Perfect Guide to Castles

5.00Florin was an exceptional guide and his driver was great also. Florin was helpful from the time of booking, helping us adjust our schedule to get the most out of what we wanted to see. He communicated early and even suggested a way to catch the return train from an intermediate village rather than return all the way to Brashov and inculded possible trains. He was articulate and knowledgeable about everything. He knew how to beat the bigger tours and time our visits. He even got us through the largest rainstorm he had experience in 8 years, without hurting our tours. This was a great tour and guide.
super fun and interesting, highly recommended!

5.00I was so excited about this tour and was not disappointed! Florin was absolutely amazing. He was so enthusiastic, knew so much about all the sights and random, interesting facts about Romania and the Brasov region and spoke flawless English and Italian. One of the best tour guides I've ever had. I highly recommend this tour, especially if you luck out and get Florin as your guide!
Fantastic day visiting castles!
