I could not have asked for a better tour guide! Lucian is the best! Great story-telling all throughout the trip! I learned a lot not only about the destinations we went to, but about Romania as a whole. Thank you Lucian! And thank you too to Johnny our driver that day
Our guide Ioana was amazing. She spoke from the heart, shared many fascinating stories, and paid close attention to everyone in the group. I especially enjoyed visiting Dracula’s Castle. It has so much atmosphere and history, and Ioana’s storytelling made it even more special. Brasov is also a beautiful place and definitely worth visiting. The only downside is that we had just around 50 minutes there, which felt a bit short. So be ready to explore quickly and make the most of your time. One friendly tip for fellow travelers: please try to be on time when the group needs to leave. It really helps everyone enjoy the tour without delays. Overall, it was a memorable day full of history, beauty, and great company. Thank you, Ioana!
location..Itinerary..all great. tour guide not bad.. just that the tour guide use to explain things in monotone flat... sitting infront facing road and talking to the mic. without care the passenger listen or not 🤭.. overall not bad.. 👍
Enjoyable day trip with 3 interesting stops. Our guide Luchien? organised everything well with entertaining commentary about Romania. Be prepared for a long day and 7 hours+ on the bus. The last stop at Bran castle was rushed. some additional time would have been nice.
I'm enjoying joining the tour. Ana is a professional tourist guide, she knows a lot about Romanian history. Mr Dragosh, the driver, is an expert and will drive well. They are punctual, and the slot allocation for each attraction place is good enough. Definitely worth the money. Will book again with this travel agent if we visit Romania again.
Our guide, Lucian, was excellent—he shared a wealth of information about the country, its history, food, and politics, all with great humor. He was also a very skilled driver, which made the long journeys feel safe and comfortable. We had enough time at each location to explore thoroughly, and overall it was a very fulfilling experience. I would recommend this tour for adults—whether traveling solo, as a couple, or with family. That said, since there are 2–3 hour drives between locations, it may be a bit challenging for young children to stay entertained.
A pretty good trip. You get to visit two famous castles, and Brasov. The old town is very beautiful. I was lucky to see a Christmas market.
Roxanna made our trip easy and fun, she gave us a lot of information during the tour. The bus was comfortable and the journey was nice.
The bus air conditioning was not good and therefore at this summer time it is a problem for the convenience of the tourist. Guide is nice and she tried to explain as much as possible about the history.
Our tour guide, Julia, was very dedicated and shared a lot of history about Romania and its attractions. The castle was definitely worth seeing! The only downside was that we could only enter Bran Castle at 11:00 AM, but had to gather for the bus at 11:30 AM, so we had to rush through it. However, overall, it was a great trip.
