Dracula Experience In Transylvania
Overview
Available languages
72 hours
Mobile ticket
Over the years, we travelled far and wide across the lands of Romania, from the wild beaches of the Delta, all the way to the forgotten villages of Maramures. Our path was crossed by kind people, traditions that stood still in time and locations we struggled to leave behind.
Our shared wanderlust and desire to share these wonderful places with you, thus, gave birth to Explore Transylvania concept. We’re thinking things a bit differently combining wildlife, nature and outdoor trips with cultural/ historical incursion in the rich Romanian history. We will offer our full expertise, incredible locations and a 100% hands-on assistance; all that’s left for you to do is to dream away and enjoy this unique experience.

If you want a trip with just a little more 'bite'.....

5.00I've been to many places in Europe but there are none that compare to Transylvania, which has to be one of the best kept secrets on the continent. From the moment you're picked up by Marius and the team, you can tell you're about to experience something special. There's the trip from Bucharest up through the mountains to the vibrant town of Brasov, which is worth the visit by itself. There's a real buzz about the place, and there is something for every taste. For me, the local beers and the food were just the ticket. Brasov is just the base though, as you're there to follow in the footsteps of Vlad Dracula himself. Bran Castle sits guarding the pass through the mountains near Brasov, and has done so for nearly 8 centuries. It's historic, fascinating, wonderfully gothic and just a little bit creepy into the bargain! But what really puts the icing on the tour cake, is Marius and the team. Nothing is too much trouble; they all speak excellent English and very soon, you feel like you're being guided around by a friend. So if you're looking for something that's just 'different' then I can't recommend this trip highly enough. But as to the question of whether to go out after sundown? You'll just need to answer that one by yourself....
Wonderful

5.00Great experience from start to finish. Brasov is a very pretty city and it's perfectly mixed with scenery for all tastes. Marius the guide is warm, responsive and always willing to help, very knowledgeable guide. Dracula's castle is interesting and the outside is picture worthy, as is everything!
Amazing experience

5.00The area is gorgeous. Romanian food is awesome especially after you have some palinca (local firewater). You must visit the Castle and don't miss Brasov and Rasnov cities.
