Best History Tour of Transylvania - This was seriously one of the coolest experiences of my life. Me and my friend booked this tour as well as the Salina Turda Salt Mines tour with the same company and it was an amazing experience. Best way to learn the rich history of Transylvania and see stunning remnants of that history. Our tour guide, Calin, was full of information, able to answer all of or ridiculous questions, and really tailored the tour to our interests- including stopping to (attempt to) pet some roadside pigs!

History - We would like to thank Caplin for a brilliant day. He was punctual on picking us up in his nice clean car. A itinerary was given to us. Caplin gave us a brief history of each place we were visiting, sufficient history to remember what he told us and for us to enjoy each of the places we visited. Thank you Caplin for a memorable day to our holiday.
