Long journey, many hours on the bus. Guide and driver were excellent. History of Romania was very well presented and interesting. I did not know much about Romanian history
Get day out.

Get service, tour guides were very friendly and informative. Long day but worth it. Only one small issue the air-conditioning on the bus could have been better.

The tour was fantastic and super informative, there was absolutely no problem involved. I 100% recommend it. When I was choosing which tour to take, I saw many people complaining about their competitors, who charged extra at the last minute or were rude, but these guys here are really honest and professional. There are no hidden fees and you get a great tour.
Fabulous castle visits

We were collected at 740am, the arrangements to meet were very clear and on time. We went by bus to Peles Castle, we had a couple hours in the castle, went in yo Brasov, very quaint town with lots of character. Went on to Bran. Through out our trip the guide was informative and incredibly knowledgeable about the castles, the areas, the people linked to the locations. A long day out but was fantastic day. Only downside was the bus didn’t have the best air conditioning and mid summer was like a sauna at times.
