5.00Wonderful experience. The guide was local and told in detail the whole story. The place is very beautiful and, in my opinion, better than the Castle of Dracula.
Irina was very responsive...

5.00We had a tour of Peles Castle with Irina on October 26th, originally scheduled for noon. Unfortunately, a mistake with our rental car reservation caused a significant delay. Irina was absolutely amazing throughout. When we reached out to explain the situation, she responded promptly and found an alternative time for us to visit. Once we arrived, Irina’s warmth and deep knowledge truly enhanced what was already a mesmerizing experience. She was not only accommodating but made the history of Peles Castle come alive, making our visit unforgettable.
A tour guide is the way to go at Pele.

4.00The palace was incredible and the tour guide was knowledgeable. We were 7 minutes late due to the long walk up from parking that we did not plan for. The tour guide was very upset we were late and mentioned it several times. Apparently we were supposed to meet prior to the time but this was not known to us.
Excellent experience

Peles Palace

5.00Peles castle is a gorgeous palace with a stunning alpine backdrop. Every hall is ornately furnished and decorated in various architectural/interior design schemes, most of which evoke other kingdoms abroad. There is much history to be appreciated in this place, and visitors will find themselves enraptured amongst crimson carpets and venetian columns. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and personable. She expedited our entry into the castle and was regularly in contact with us, making the process seamless. Some warnings: i suggest you bring Ron if you do not book ahead of time. Atms are unreliable at best and the ticket office does not accept card it seems; though the gift shop does. The train station is about a 30 minute walk from the castle and it is entirely uphill. Those who are not comfortable or able to walk long distances should arrange transportation or use the bus system.
