Review of Bucharest’s 12-hour trip to Peleș Castle, Bran Castle, and Brașov, with practical advice on price, timing, tickets, and winter travel.

“Adrian was a very knowledgeable and entertaining guide, he took good care of us and gave us lots of information regarding the day. Peles castle was closed (it’s closed Mon & Tues) but was beautiful from the outside. Brasov was lovely, we had lunch at La Ceaun which was delicious. Finally, we went to Bran Castle, where we paid to enter the castle. Although reviews were mixed, we were glad we went in. Adrian was not pushy with selling tickets, he gave passengers a QR code where we could buy tickets from the official online retailer, although we opted to pay cash when we arrived at the castle (around £18…”

“Vlad was such an excellent tour guide, so friendly and knowledgeable. He went the extra mile with reccomendations in the area and gave us lots of extra information about Romania, Bucharest and surrounding areas. The coach was modern and comfortable too. Peles castle is absolutely stunning. Brasov was well worth a visit and Bran castle was simple but interesting. It was nice to break up the day with different stops and rest stops, because it is a long day with lots of driving but 100% worth it. Another big shout out to Vlad, you'd be very happy if he is your guide!Read more”

“The whole excursion was relaxed and thoroughly enjoyable. Both castles were great although Gabriel (our amazingly knowledgeable guide) was obviously less enamoured with the bullsh#t created around the Dracula tourism industry 🤣 With only 6 of us on the trip there was no rushing around or waiting for people. Brassov was nice to look around in the snow and we were really happy with both the venue and meals helpfully suggested by Gabriel 👍👍”
