Educational bear sanctuary tour, history and castles

5.00It was a really lovely experience ! Alin was very knowledgeable and was open to any questions if we had any. However, he did not go into the attractions with us as both places had their own respective guides. He always makes sure to drop us off right at the entrance and picks us up from there. Most of the information he shares are done in the car, so the journey felt short and that time passed quickly. The bear sanctuary is actually a very rare offering and not to be missed. It was one of my highlights - both educational and interesting. I highly recommend this day trip so that you can do both the famous bran castle and the bear sanctuary together. Alin also took us to someplace to have a nice paranomic view of the city so we could take nice pictures, and through a local road surrounded by snow covered trees - very beautiful! The entry prices are approx 90lei for adults, 75 for students for bear sanctuary, paid there, and it includes a tour. For Bran castle it includes only the entry, 90lei for adults 50 for students, with add on prices to enter specific rooms, paid on site. Both can be paid by card. Students need a pass to show them so remember to bring it! If you take a taxi to these places, it’ll be around the same price, but I would say this is better since Alin explains and tells you about history, insider information and some fun facts you wouldn’t know about. Really enjoyed myself and would encourage you to sign up for this tour with Alin!

5.00Alin was amazing and gave us so much information about Braşov and about every activity we did. Very informative and friendly person. He went above and beyond to help us change our dates to suit as the bear sanctuary was shut on the day we had booked and he was extremely helpful in giving us different options of what we could do. Highly recommend him and his tour, we loved it.

5.00A great day visiting the Bear sanctary and Bran Castle. We also had lunch near Bran which was great. As Rasov castle was partially closed, we went to have a look at the huge ski resort nearby and then stopped to look over the old town of Brasov from a wonderful viewing point. A great day all round.

5.00We absolutely loved our day trip! Alin was so lovely and attentive. He knew everything and was super interesting. The bear sanctuary was our favourite. Their enclosure is ebourmas and they truly are free and happy, all rescued from captivity and cruelty. We would recommend Alin to absolutely everybody!! Xx
