Top 10 Ghost & Vampire Tours in Brasov, Transylvania

March 20, 2022 Renato Branum

Smack in the center of Romania is Brasov, a harmonious mash-up of traditional charm and modern city life. Ride a double-decker bus around the city to get your bearings and see the sites whiz by, then hop off to squeeze down Strada Sforii, the narrowest street in Europe. Take a day trip to see the fortified church of Prejmer, the Libearty brown bear sanctuary, and the deliciously ominous Bran Castle, otherwise known as Dracula’s Castle.

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.

Thank you Alex and team for making this happen. It’s like dream come true. I totally enjoyed it and wish to be back there soon.

This tour combines sightseeing with history and culture. If your time in Brasov is limited you can tick two very important boxes of Transylvania by visiting the Bran (Dracula) Castle and the Transfagarasan highway in the same day. While you can visit Bran 365 days per year, the mountain road is only open a few months during the summer and autumn. During the Transfagarasan day trip we drive close to the altitude of 2050 meters above sea level. On the road we stop at the Balea Waterfall. Here we check out the souvenir shops and taste some of the local snacks. At the Balea Lake we can have a proper lunch, after we hike around the lake. More souvenirs are available here too. Other short stops for spectacular roadside landscapes are also included. The Bran Castle tour is done either at the start or at the end of the day, depending on the day of the week.

Inclusions: Air-conditioned vehicle, Bottled water, Licensed Tour Guide, Parking Fees

Exclusions: Bran Castle entrance fee (40 ron) isn't included.

We take you for a guided tour from the pickup location and our first stop is Bran Castle, where we will meet Dracula if he is willing to show himself. If not we will take you inside his crib and show you how a real vampire lives. Spooky huh? Next stop will be at Libearty Sanctuary for a meet and greet with the Romanian Bears, where if they are in a good mood you can give them a high five. The itinerary is Bran Castle and Libearty Sanctuary

Very enjoyable day for us all. The tour was well paced and the perfect blend of diverse sights and varied landscapes, Adrian was extremely knowledgable and really opened our eyes with some fantastic insights and anecdotes on the history of Romania, and much more. It wasn't information heavy at all, we had lots of laughs too. We would definitely recommend The Fixers for anyone who wishes to explore the beautiful sights of Romania outside of Bucharest.
