ROMANIA · TRANSYLVANIA TOURS
Transylvania is a region, not a day trip, and the 15 below treat it accordingly: fortified Saxon villages, the citadel at Sighișoara, castle days out of Brașov and longer loops that sleep in the mountains. Priced, timed and honest about the driving.
Bucharest day trip to Peles, Bran, and Brasov. Long but worth it for Dracula vibes and royal castles, with ticket planning needed.
“Is not the true castle, expensive for what you get, no tickets included, have to pay extra for room tours that were good”
Private Transylvania day trip from Bucharest to Peles, Bran, and Brasov, with hotel pickup, an English guide, and time to explore.
“This tour covered the highlights of Transylvania and it was great to see the two castkes and Brasov. Our guide was more of a driver however and spent most of his time on the phone without providing much along the way. The car was older and couldn't run the AC while going thru the mountains as he said it was a 3 cylinder. Once at the sites, he did work the system to get us in for Pele Castle before the hoards and did help with some recommendations for unch and dinner. He did not provide an actual tour at the sites the way some did. We certainly had a…”
Two days from Bucharest through medieval Transylvania: Peles, Bran, Brasov, overnight in Sighisoara, then Sibiu. Guided small-group comfort.
“Great experience seeing some of the most picturesque towns in Romania. Lots of long hours on the road (slightly terrifying) but the views were outstanding and our guide Alex had so much knowledge to share. Alex was an amazing guide, so kind and patient, and completely professional. The castle tour was really nice (book your tickets online the day before because they sell out fast) and we absolutely loved all the little towns we visited! We’re already planning a return visit to Braşov, because that’s the easiest to get to by train and has the most to do, but I’d happily return to Sighosaura and Siubu, too. Highly recommend this…”

“My group of 10 friends had an amazing day with Florin as we traveled in our fantastic mini bus to Sighisoara and other highlights in Transylvania. What was so wonderful is that in the 10 hours we were with Florin, everything just evolved in spectacular fashion. Just trust Florin to lead you! He is amazing!!! We were paced at our own liking and never felt rushed. So, we were able to just “soak everything in” in this beautiful country. Florin has a library full of information in his brain and knows how to share it all without making you feel you are in a lecture. I am a travel agent…”

2 days in Transylvania from Bucharest, Peleș Castle, Brasov, UNESCO Sighișoara, and Bran Castle with hotel pickup, English guide, and small-group pacing.
“The sights and places you visit on this tour are enough reason to book it. We saw so many places and things that were so beautiful, it is impossible to put into words. Our tour guide, Boogie, was quite possibly the best tour guide we've ever encountered. The company scheduled the tour perfectly. There is so much to see in all of these places that it is impossible to see it all, but they showed us as much as time would allow, and we never felt rushed. I recommend this tour with great enthusiasm!”

“5 star! Our tourguide Mihai was the best. He is always punctual and very knowledgeable about Romania. We are very happy we did this tour and didnt regret one bit. We saw many nice places which we cant see if we explored by ourselves. I can only recommend a this private tour. It was worth it and we experienced a lot more than what we expected. Thanks Mihai. Best tourguide ever :”

A 3-day medieval Transylvania circuit from Bucharest, with monastery art, Saxon fortified churches, Sibiu and Sighișoara, plus Dracula at Bran.
“Our three days in Transylvania with Matthew were fantastic. It was a small group—just the two of us and another couple—which made the experience even more enjoyable. Our guide was an excellent driver, and we felt safe and well taken care of throughout the trip. We saw some incredible sights just off the side of the road, and the forests were absolutely stunning. The castles we visited were impressive, and the towns of Sibiu and Brașov were really charming and full of character. Both hotels we stayed in were perfect—not too big, with very good breakfasts. Overall, the trip was great value, and we’re very happy with our choice.”
4 days from Bucharest seeing Peles, Bran, Corvin, and fortified churches, with a small English group and included lodging and entry.
“Rolandia was fantastic, and our tour guide George was one of the nicest people we've ever met and really did everything to make us feel welcome. Note, we didn't do this exact tour but close - we did a custom private tour that started in Budapest and went to Corvin, Bran, and Peles castles. We stayed overnight in Timisora and Sibiu. Would definitely recommend Rolandia - they made planning very easy and were super accommodating to what we wanted to do. All three castles were very cool to visit, and loved how quaint Sibiu is!”

The guide was amazing and the transport was extremely comfortable.”
