Excellent tour, tour guide was excellent, wonderful way to spend the day - Most importantly, the tour guide made this day tour exceptional - his historical knowledge, logistics to guide the group, mastery at avoiding bad weather and crowds to make our castle visits efficient and enjoyable, and including the monastery was the icing on the cake. Exceptional tour, worth every penny.

Great tour. Visiting the monastery as well as the castles made this a brilliant day out. - Excellent tour guide and 3 great places to visit. The monastery was so beautiful and interesting. Peles castle was incredible and Bram Castle had an interesting history. We never felt rushed and our guide shared so much useful and fascinating information. He really looked after everyone too. And we had a very good driver. Thank you for a great day.

A wonderful day spent - Florine was an excellent guide, and he delivered the tour in three languages. He was patient and helpful with my mother, who needs a cane.
The castles were wonderful, as was the monastery. Be prepared to sit in the car for a while, because traffic can be bad in the mountains. Florine did well to pop in with some facts along the road.

Fantastic castle visit with Florin - We had a fantastic tour of both Castle Bran and Castle Pereş along with the Pereş Monasteries with Florin, a true local who is very proud of his country and fluent in multiple languages!
Castle Pereş is the best castle interior I have ever seen...
Thanks so much, Florin.

Bran and Peles Castle Tour - Very good tour. The guide Florin was wonderful, very cheerful and communicative and full of knowledge of the history of the very impressive castles and of all of the surrounding areas, both of the Castles are impressive, Bran more so for its legend, Peles more for its beauty. The drives to and from the area are filled with stunning scenery, deep forests and impressive mountain peaks. Definitely a tour to recommend in in the Brasov area.

A great day trip from Brasov - Our guide was knowledgeable on all the sites and was very friendly. The pace of the tour was excellent and we had the right amount of free time for lunch and photos. Bran Castle was interesting and Peles Castle was outstanding.
