Outstanding Tour; Great Driver - I had absolutely the best day with my driver (Catalin)! Since the trip was expected to take about 12 hours (anc could last 16 for traffic delays), we’d coordinated for an early departure from Bucharest and were on the road by 0800. My driver provided historical, cultural and language information during our transit to Sinaia and I was quite pleased with the pace of the journey. Arriving at Peles Castle, Catalin dropped me near the entrance and suggested we meet again in an hour. The lines were long but I was easily able to get an extra 30 minutes to allow adequate visiting time. Each room of the Individual Ticket Tour was impressive. After getting photos of the gardens and exterior, I walked by Castle Pelisor. Despite me using of some of the valuable time, Catalin was patient and flexible. Our drive to Bran was affected by typical traffic and road construction but by driver kept me entertained with music and stories about life in Romania - the time passed quickly. Reaching the entry area for Castle Bran, Catalin gave me several options for the amount of time we could spend their - I opted for one hour with no intention of entering the castle. Instead, I walked to the top of the hill and got views of the town. I visited Queen Marie’s “grotto” and later walked over to the Heart of Marie Church. Before my visit was complete, I walked around in the (reconstructed) Medieval Village and nearby market. Once Catalin picked me up again, we took the “scenic route” (across the mountain passes near Alpin Resort) to Brasov. I guess we were still on schedule because I was offered at least two hours in the beautiful town. This allowed me to get a nice lunch, visit most of the “Top 10” highlights and experience Transylvanian culture in a relaxed, almost incognito atmosphere. Throughout the day, I really appreciated the freedom to make my own schedule with no need to follow a guide with a flag. Needless to say, I was quite elated & completely satisfied when I met Catalin for the drive home. It was a Friday, southbound traffic (to Walachia) was lighter than normal and we made good time to the Center of Bucharest. My driver provided a route that allowed me to get lots of scenic views, pointed out highlights, slowed down for me to take photos, offered alternatives and was very friendly/helpful. I definitely recommend this tour to someone who wants a VIP experience during a visit to Romania!

Great company for tours and transfers - We loved our tour. As soon as I booked it the company reached out to confirm the details like pick up times, location, and what’s included. România is beautiful and going as a private tour was so much more enjoyable than going in a coach full of strangers. We had the freedom to stay longer or shorter in places along the way. Our driver was excellent - knowledgeable but also happy to leave us to ourselves too - best of both worlds! We liked the company so much we booked them for our return airports transfers too. Very reasonable prices and very prompt. Highly recommend.

Fantastic 🥰 - I want to say a big thank you to Vlad for organizing the transfer (everything is clear, fast and high-quality) Also for his recommendations for visiting interesting places. We also ordered an individual excursion to the castles and to Brasov from him. The driver Adrian is just an amazing person, kind, sociable, intelligent, very cheerful. He told us where to go and where not to spend money. He took us to have lunch at an excellent Romanian restaurant. If we are in Bucharest, we will only go here. Professionals work here. Thank you and prosperity to your company

If you want to go to Peles/Bran/Brasov - this is the company to book with! - Catalin was a very patient and safe driver who was able to accommodate all our wishes and requests. Vlad in turn, coordinated all the arrangements in a very professional and quick manner. In total, a very enjoyable experience. Try to depart from Bucharest reasonably early to avoid bus tours in both castles.

Book this private tour - From the beginning with the booking everything was wonderful. Vlad was very responsive and had no problems with us changing the itinerary for the tour. Our driver Michele was great and accommodating, and very good conversation. It was a wonderful experience and we highly recommend it to anyone visiting. We were only in Romania for one day and this private tour covered what we wanted to see and experience.

Roxana rocks! - We picked this private tour as we wanted to be able to tailor the day to accommodate other plans we had that evening. Our driver Roxana was amazing, I am usually a nervous passenger and she really put us at ease. Her English was perfect and we really enjoyed our day with her seeing the sights of Brasov and beyond.

Amazing Private Tour! - Alexandru was an amazing tour guide! Not only did he drive us to all the castles and Brasov city, but he was very knowledgeable and extremely friendly. We also appreciate that the tour operator could accommodate us on such a short notice booking request. It was overall a great experience!

Highlight of my trip - This company didn't disappoint. - This company was recommended to me by a friend that had used them for an airport transfer. I'm really glad I did. There were 4 adults in my group so we went for the Mercedes Vito Van, I'm glad we did as it was very roomy and allowed us all to have a window seat. We used this company for our airport transfers also. The communication was excellent. My phone data wasn't working when I arrived but the company voice called me to keep me informed. The day trip to the castles was a very full day. Our driver (Edward) was lovely, he was informative without being over-chatty. He allowed us to make additional stops whenever we wanted and this definitely added to the experience. The castles themselves were amazing. Pele castle was stunning. Bran castle was much older and less ornate but still amazing in it's own right. You will not be disappointed with this tour!
