Due to the current covid situation, I had a private tour that day, which was awesome. Mathias was a great guide, has a lot of general Romanian knowledge along with historical. This made for great conversation on the way to and from the castles. I highly recommend the tour and would gladly do it again with friends and family in the future.

We make our escape for a half day from the busy streets of Bucharest. Unknown even to some people born and raised here there are some hidden gems just a few miles outside city limits.Leaving Bucharest we travel to the Palace of Mogosoaia. A retreat made for the rulers of the Romanians, in a pure Romanian style called Brancovenesc. It is a quiet and majestic place where you will feel like going back in time. Next, we take a short drive to the Snagov Monastery which is believed to be the resting place of the body of Vlad the Impaler, better known as Dracula. The monastery itself is on an island in the middle of the Snagov Lake offering great views over the surrounding area.

Adrian was prompt picking us up in the morning as we settled into a pleasant drive to Braşov. Stopped for a quick coffee about halfway. Adrian showed us around Braşov and gave us plenty of time to explore on our own. We then drove to Bran Castle and Adrian was so knowledgeable about the history as he gave us a private tour. Finally we went to Peles Castle and once again astounded us with his depth of knowledge. Amazing day, one a highly recommend.

My original booked tour for this combo canceled on me, less than 10 hours beforehand, since I was the only one on the tour. I scrambled in my hotel room to find another company that offered this combo, as I REALLY wanted to go to the sanctuary. I mean vampires and bears? What an amazing combo! So when I found these guys, I booked it immediately. They emailed me a little while later saying I was the only one on the tour, but they would honor it! I was picked up by Nicolas, and he was a great guide! He didn't just drive me to each place; he went into the castle with me, pointed out additional places and information and also did a few photo op's. It was a long day and a lot of walking, but so worth it! Castle Bran is always crowded, so be prepared for that. The Libearty Bear Sanctuary requires that you pay an entrance fee, but it's minimal, and so worth it! Over 100+ bears in this amazing place! Also stopped in the town of Brasov, which has great restaurants, German architecture and the Black Church. Nicolas made it enjoyable and I really thank this company for not canceling my trip!

The ride to get the the castle was kind of long but with the wifi I kept myself entertained. The castle was amazing and the tour guide was very knowledgeable and explain everything very well. I had an exceptional day learning about Romanian history. I would recommend this tour to anyone if they are spending a couple of days in Romania.
