What To Expect
Bran Castle
We will learn more about the real story of the castle, from its early beginnings, as a border stronghold, to its later time, as the romantic residence of the Queen Marie of Romania. And of course, we will discover all the facts and bust all the myths related to Dracula. We will not leave before having a stroll in the beautiful park near the castle, for an unmissable photo session.
Rasnov Citadel: Garden and Panoramic View
We will learn about the citadel's history and admire the incredible view of the mountains around. We can climb up to the entrance of the upper precinct or stroll around the lower enclosure. To reach the fortress gates, we can choose between walking (approximately 15 min) or using the children's train. Please be aware that the inner precinct of the fortress is closed for renovation, so we will be able to see only the second enclosure.

Wine, food and Dracula

5.00A fantastic educational historical, cultural, wine tour with traditional Romanian food. In addition to interesting wine producers visited Drakula Castle, Turda salt mine and made several city walks. Florin is an excellent, knowledgeable and social person with answers to all our questions and insight into an incredible number of topics. The tour was carried out in a comfortable minibus that made it possible to see things one would never have been able to experience on their own in the 6 days on site.
Getting to know Transylvania in a pleasant way

5.00We highly recommend a tour with this company. They were very fast answering our inquiry, flexible in adjusting the standard tour to our needs ( we wanted to see a little bit of the countryside and skip Brasov) and the guide was very well informed, professional yet friendly.
Fun and educational tour

5.00Florin is a phenomenal tour guide who provided a wealth of information at every stop. He readily shared his knowledge and answered every question that our small group had. The tour stops were great and we enjoyed every minute of it. He picked an excellent lunch stop (perhaps one of best meals in Romania) and was courteous in all communication. We take another tour with him without reservation and would recommend him to anyone.
Excellent tour and phenomenal guide.

He was most courteous and informative and really made the day a completely wonderful experience. I would highly recommend this tour, and him personally, to anyone.

5.00Bran Castle (very busy) Brasov and Rasnov (despite the construction site currently inside of the citadel) are all worth a visit. Florin did a fantastic tour (which lasted from morning to evening) and provided rich background information.
Great tour guide.

5.00Florin was my families guide for Brasov and Bran Castle - Very friendly and informative, he answered any questions we had and I felt I gained a better understanding of Romanian culture having spent the afternoon with him. Will use again when I visit this wonderful country!
