1.Small-group tour Bran, Rasnov, and Peles Castles

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 949 reviews · 8 to 9 hours (approx.) · from $82Our pick

Small-group castle tour from Brasov to Peleș, Bran (Dracula), and Rasnov, with a guide, timed-ticket tips, and big views.

“I was the only person on the trip which made it feel like a private tour, which is not for everyone. Entry to Bran castle is mandatory and should have been mentioned in the booking otherwise the trip is pointless and this could have been done easily without taking a tour guide. I enjoyed the trip but the guide not sure.”

“It was described to be "with an English speaking guide." The tour subcontractor spoke English, but sent us off with a driver that did not speak one word of English. The sub had an eight person van. Four of us "seniors" we're at the pick up point early. Eight younger people, probably not all together in the same group were late, however they were given preferential treatment riding in the van with the English speaking guide. When we got to the viewing site, they were directed to the only eight chairs available at the viewing window while the four of us were stuck on chairs pulled up behind them. In…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 227 reviews · 4 hours · from $93

A late-afternoon wildlife hunt in the Carpathian forest near Brașov, led by a ranger, with quiet hide time for bears and more.

“Absolutely amazing! To see these beautiful creatures in their natural habitat was incredible and slightly nerve racking 😝 We went with a different driver who was friendly and great to chat to about România and lifestyle. The guide was great. Very calming, knowledgeable and friendly. And the bears. Well. Beautiful. We saw about 5 different bears and you really are quite close. If you’re an animal lover this trip is a must.”

“This was a fantastic experience! It was my first time in Romania so I was learning constantly. The communication about where to meet in the morning was clear and easy. The van was super nice and clean. Our guide was incredible- he knew everything!!! Visiting the castles via this tour was perfect because it allows you to skip the lines at each location (at Bran, we would have had to wait hours!) and have a fantastic tour at each location. He made sure we had time to take pictures everywhere and recommended food in Brasov as well (we went to two of his suggested restaurants= both were fantastic!). I cannot…”
