Bucareste: Castelo do Drácula, Castelo de Peles e viagem de 1 dia a Brasov

The tour guide was amazing - Vlad, so sweet and knowledgeable and fun. A true “kid at heart”, we loved how excited he got about showing us around the castle and all the fun facts he provided. The bus driver deserves recognition as well for getting us around those roads safely! As for the tour - Peles castle is great - if you’re on a budget, you don’t NEED to see the second floor but if you’re curious, it was cool to see some extra spaces. Brasov is such a cute town and we wish we could’ve spent more time here! (Don’t pay to go into the church there - it isn’t too impressive). We will definitely return to this town to spend more time but it was a great introduction. Bran castle is a tourist trap - fire hazard - couldn’t even read any of the signs there were so many people. Felt claustrophobic. Use your time to explore the local town and view of the castle from the other side of the road. Overall, this tour provided us exactly what we needed- an intro to Transylvania.

Pelé slot og Brasov var fantastiske, hvorimod Bran slot (draculas slot) slet ikke levede Op til forventningerne, draculas slot… tja, kedeligt og ikke specielt turistvenligt med forklarende tekster. I bund og grund er Det et tomt royalt slot. Bussen, chaufføren var super. Dog ville jeg ønske der var wifi i bussen. Vores guide Vlad helt fantastisk, en super viden og mega behagelig stemme. Bemærk indgang til Pelé slot er delt op på etager og koster 50 Lei pr etage pr person. På Bran Slot kostede det ekstra at se de to små rum med tortur redskaber, som måske ville have været det mest opløftende på det slot.

Honestly, I could not improve this trip. It had everything needed ! Very good, pleasant and safe transportation, the tour guide Otilia was absolutely amazing. Not only very kind but didn’t let the trip to the mountains get boring, Otilia spoke all the way about Romania’s history, food, tradition, even threw us some good jokes too! Both George (the driver) and Otilia (the tour guide) made this trip a perfect day ❤️ I have been to other day trips in other countries but so far this one was honestly the best one. Really recommend, well done guys ✈️👌🏻
