Bran, Peleș and Râșnov sit within an hour of each other, so the sensible move is to take all three in one go. The 15 below differ on how many stops fit, how long the day runs and whether lunch in Brașov is included.

“The tour was well planned, we were picked up by our guide and he drove us to the Corvin's castle. This was our second tour with the company, so we already had familiarity with the guide. He was happy to answer our questions about the place and its history. When we arrived at the Crovin's castle, he explained us history of the castle. The castle is magnificent and larger compared to the famous Bran castle. Luckily we arrived at a time of lesser crowds and got time to explore it on our own. He gave us some time to buy sweets from local markets, and then we drove to Alba…”

“Nothing was too much trouble for Mircea, who picked us up from our hotel bang on time, and delivered us promptly back in the evening after a full, knowledge packed day in Transylvania. He was friendly, extremely knowledgeable and ensured that we got to see everything on our trip despite some delays due to overcrowding (not his fault at all) at Peles Castle by efficient time keeping. Can highly recommend this guide and tour - thank you again Mircea!”

“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!”
