We had to buy tickets for Peles Castle online on the bus - the tour guide told us there was a link on the Grayline tour email, which we followed, bought tickets through Grayline for both Peles and Bran Castle, but never received them. I re-purchased them through the Peles Castle official website. I emailed Grayline and explained what happened but never got a response. I contacted them again after arriving home and sent a screenshot of the purchase, but again no response. The tour itself was good, a long day but we saw a lot and I can't complain about that, but the company itself is very unprofessional and I definitely would book elsewhere.

Peles castle was amazing. I strongly recommend to get inside. What really made the difference were the passionate tour guides. I also loved Bran castle. We decided not to get in, as friends who had been before told us not to go and we didn't regret it. We walked through the town and relaxed a bit. We also enjoyed the visit to the city of Brazov
