Highlights
  • Libearty Bear Sanctuary Zarnesti - This is a fun experience for those who love animals and want to discover the beauty of The Carpathians and the area around Brasov. Early in the morning we’ll be on board with a licensed driver, who’ll bring us, through wilderness and untouched nature, to visit the bears sanctuary. Most of the bears in the Sanctuary were rescued from the most miserable and small cages where they were held for “fun”, as tourist attractions. Many were confiscated from restaurants’ terraces, hotels and villas, while some of them were captive near factories, gas stations or a monastery. We hope you’ll enjoy to meet them and see how they live now and enjoy freedom. After this experience we’ll visit

  • Bran Castle (Dracula’s Castle) - Dracula Castle and search for the mysterious count. Lunch will be served in a romanian traditional restaurant where you can taste all kind of specialties and the famous “papanași” dessert.

A day trip from Bucharest - Wonderful guide very kind and helpful. Full day. Castle a little underwhelming. Traffic a real problem. Bears a wonderful experience.

An amazing highly recommended day - A lovely day. Picked up in a clean car by Alex who was great throughout the day. First was the bear sanctuary which was areal cheer jerker but brilliant to see the great work they’re doing there and we saw a lot of super cute bears as well as Wolves too. The guide was excellent very and knowledgable. Then on to lunch which was was delicious and followed by Draculas’s castle which was a lifetime ambition fulfilled! All in all an amazing and highly recommended day at great value!
