Our tou guide was very lovely. She showed us around the city and showed us the way of living during the time of the guilds. The tour stated that we would have a house visit which I thought that we would go into the house where Vlad resided but we just walked past it and continued to other locations.

This is a great way to see Sighisoara and learn about its history and the history of Transylvania in general! Cosmina was an amazing guide. She answered all our questions, took us to some amazing locations, and gave us a lot of really interesting information. This is a great value and I would definitely recommend it if you are in the area!

Die Tour war sehr kurzweilig und informativ. Cosmina war eine sehr nette und kompetente Führerin. Meine Frau und ich waren die einzigen zwei Teilnehmer. Von daher sehr gut. Der Treffpunkt ist jedoch nicht dort gewesen, wo er laut Voucher hätte sein sollen. Das sollte dringend geändert werden! Ansonsten war die Tour sehr schön und weiterzuempfehlen.
