Amazing private tour with Emmanuel … - One of the best tours we’ve taken from Viator. Emmanuel was an excellent driver/tour guide. It was very informative & learned a lot about România from its struggle under communism & the present day freedom that the people are enjoying!

A Great Day! - Emmanuel was amazing! We were supposed to meet at 0800, but I overslept and instead of leaving he called then waited for me to get ready. That was greatly appreciated and was a great start to the day. The ride to Peles Castle was about 1 1/2 hours, but he knew what I needed and switched up the order of the locations. You can tell he's very attentive and very knowledgeable. There was a festival happening near Dracula's Castle so we took a small detour and it made the trip even that more fun. The ride back was about 2 1/2 hours so be prepared for a long day. The only downside was that we couldn't find any parking at Bravos, but we were able to drive around and take pictures.

Experience not to be missed! - Emanuel was very attentive and helpful: it is rare to meet a very good and kind driver, who explains everything in Italian. We visited Peles Castle, Dracula Castle and the city of Brasov. We spent 12 hours in pleasant company!

Great day out - totally recommend - A very long day but worth it. Our guide Emanuel was excellent, even after losing contact a few days before the tour he still was able to find us at the train station. He was super knowledgeable about the country, politics, history and Dracula himself. Bran Castle is amazing, so much to see inside. Don't forget your fangs!!! Brasov is cute little town, plenty of time for lunch stop and always time for an nice cream. Emanuel knew the best one to take us to Totally recommend this day out. Thank you to Emanuel especially, you made it great. The only down side was that Peles Castle was being repaired and didn't get to see it in its whole.

Wonderful day! - Excellent tour. Of course we wanted to see the Bran Castle, but Peles was wonderful and the city of Brasov is a must see. Our guide, Emanuel, was wonderful and gave us lots of information about the country and the places we visited- including suggestions for lunch in one of the many lovely restaurants in Brasov. We then wandered the square visiting the numerous shops. It was a great day!

Perfect experience! Highly recommended! - The whole experience was excellent. We are a family of 5 with 3 teens, and every one of us agreed that this was our favorite activity on our vacation. Emanuel picked us up at our apartment with water and snacks. He is extremely knowledgeable about Romanian history, and I learned a lot about empires and monarchies and such. We were able to park much closer than the large bus tour groups. The vehicle (a minivan) was very comfortable and spacious. I HIGHLY recommend booking this excursion. It was flexible, informative, relaxing, and overall wonderful.
