Daniel from Romania on the Map provided a superb experience during my day trip to Transylvania. He was very knowledgeable about the area and all the places we visited: Bran Castle, Brasov and Peles Castle. He collected me directly from my hotel and dealt with all the logistics of the day in a very professional manner. He was also incredibly kind - I wasn’t feeling well and he accommodated my needs so well - thank you, Daniel! I highly recommend doing a day trip with Romania on the Map.
A wonderful tour

Our driver and guide, Daniel, is an absolutely lovely person and the epitome of professionalism through and through. He certainly made our day trip to Bran, Brasov and Peles Castle a thoroughly enjoyable experience. He is exceptionally knowledgeable about all and everything related to Romanian history and most every question you might have along the way, plus he knows the inns and outs of alternative roads and ways to bypass parts of the inevitable heavy traffic. Definitely recommend booking a trip with him and his tour manager company. As for the places we visited, Peles Castle is probably the highlight, with it's extravagance that surpassed all expectations. The town of Bran and the historical military castle was also quite interesting, while having a traditional Romanian lunch in Brasov, and a stroll through the streets of its old town was certainly something to remember.
A perfect trip into the dramatic Romanian history.

This tour and the company was recommended to us by the hotel we were staying at. And ot did not disappoint. The car was good, but Daniel, our guide, was incredible. Easy going, extremely knowledgeable and friendly. No matter what we asked him, he knew the answer. The tour itself was very good, interesting, and informative. I'm so glad we took this tour and would not like to have missed it. I highly recommend it .
Great guide, premium car

We had a private tour to see peles castle, Bran Castle and the city of Brasov, the tour was really beautiful. Our guide Florin spoke very good English and cared very much about our well-being in the tour. The car was extremely fresh and comfortable. If you want a really good guided tour, we recommend Florin Gheorghe. He was very nice and professional. The next time we come to Bucharest we will definitely contact Florin Gheorge.
