A Taste of Transylvania: Bran & Peles Castles, Brasov Old Town
Overview
One private day trip. Three different ages. A king’s palace, a vampire’s castle and a Teutonic town. Step into the shoes of kings & queens at Peles Royal Palace, unveil the myth of Dracula at Bran Castle and get enchanted by medieval Brasov. Leave busy Bucharest behind and cross the Carpathians into Transylvania for a tour that you won’t easily forget! To top it off, this is a fully private tour so you won't share a van/bus and you'll have the tour guide just for you. Thus, the visits at the castles and the whole day will be a more personal and enjoyable experience.
