What an awesome day from start to finish. Our guide Marius was amazing. He answered all our questions, showed us such cool history and told us fascinating stories, and really made our experience incredible. It was a beautiful full day that did not feel rushed at all. We had so much fun at every stop and his punctuality and organization really allowed us to maximise the time. It was a beautiful experience all around. Ask for Marius and go with this company, convinced it’s the best out there!

Pele's castle is an exceptional bonus. Brasov a great town to have a wonder round in. Like most, I was only really interested in going to Brans castle but the other two parts of the trip quite possibly topped it.
