Due to the current covid situation, I had a private tour that day, which was awesome. Mathias was a great guide, has a lot of general Romanian knowledge along with historical. This made for great conversation on the way to and from the castles. I highly recommend the tour and would gladly do it again with friends and family in the future.

We had a great time with our tour guide, Paul!! My boyfriend and I were vaccinated and decided to spend 4 days in Bucharest. We took this tour on a Sunday and due to the Covid season all the locations we visited were pretty clear. I was very appreciative that we didn't have to fight with crowds or long lines to enter the castles. This tour takes you to all the main castles/places in 12 hours. I chose this tour over the other ones offered on Tripadvisor since it gave us a good amount of time at each spot. I liked that we didn't feel rushed & got to really soak everything in. Yes, it seems long but I swear it goes by quick. Expect to walk a lot & definitely pack some easy to eat snacks. Also, don't forget like I did --- PACK COFFEE! The tour starts early and if you're not a morning person, coffee is a must. No more hesitating and just book it. Great price for a quality tour.

The ride to get the the castle was kind of long but with the wifi I kept myself entertained. The castle was amazing and the tour guide was very knowledgeable and explain everything very well. I had an exceptional day learning about Romanian history. I would recommend this tour to anyone if they are spending a couple of days in Romania.

3 week Holiday in small town near Cluj - called Campia Turzi. Then toured within 100 mile radius. Fantastic - beautiful scenery, mountains, rivers, lakes - never saw a caravan ! Walking and horse riding is superb. The food was first class and 100% organic as is the whole Country. It was hot - very hot close to 40 deg. The attractions are too many to list here right now but we went clay shooting, mountain walking, river walking wow its a rugged Country. The people were very friendly and it was very safe to walk around even at night. So many police deters the bad folk. Went to a mountain church where the head priest has his own "Tweeka" (apple brandy) brewery. More than 80% proof rocket fuel. He gave us a full lunch and a couple bottle this brew - no charge. The bars and cafe's are joy to sit outside and have a very cheap beer or three. Fantastic cake shops and you must try the cake called "Papanasi" - if this is not the best cake you have ever seen or eaten. Made with blackberries and cottage cheese - just sublime. I spent another 10 days in a hotel with my 35 year old son - the Sun Garden near Turda in Cluj. We had breakfast, lunch and evening meals then guests for drinks every night. Cam to settle the bill on leaving - just COULD NOT BELIEVE It - came to less than £1000 when I was expecting £3000 ! Finally for now this is a land of truly Beautiful people and super super fit. Is there any fat people in Romania? I do not think so. The women have to be seen to be believed.

We were a little insane to travel through Romania in the peak of CoVID... but we did it and had a great experiences. David's knowledge of history, the places we stayed and visited were magical. Safety was a priority and everything was professional.
