An amazing trip from Bucharest to Pelisor Castle, Brasov, and Bran Castle. Our guide Mihai, whose English is excellent, was extremely knowledgeable and shared wonderful information with us. Nicholaus, our driver, was safe, very pleasant, and also knowledgeable and eager to share information with us. The larger Peles Castle was closed for the month of November, but we enjoyed the smaller Pelisor castle. This was a long day trip, due to traffic, and we arrived in Brasov after dark. We loved the trip, however, and would recommend it to others.

Mihai is the man! Start to end, this was an excellent tour! Started 8:30 sharp from my hotel, and we first stopped in Sinaia to tour Peleș Castle, then stopped for some pictures of the beautiful Carpathian Mountains. Next stop was Bran to tour Bran's castle, which we followed up with a nice lunch of traditional Romanian food. From there we stopped off for a few pictures in Râșnov, and finally ended with a walking tour of Brașov. Mihai was full of information about the region and the history of Romania. We chatted for 10 of the 12 hours of the trip I fell asleep on the way back. If I ever make it back to Romania which I believe I will I am going to hire Mihai to take me around again!
