Amazing experience
These guys are great! They tailored our tour to what we wanted to see over a 3 day period. Tibi our guide was great with a wealth of knowledge on every place we went to, and adds a bit of humour to the tour. And also seems to know everyone. Definitely worth it! Tibi drove us to Prejmer, Harman, Bran and Sinaia where we saw the monastery, Peles Castle and went up Cota 2000. The last day we went to the Seven Ladders which was great. We are definitely gonna use them again when we come back to Brasov.

Lovely Transylvania Romania
My partner and I were in Romania for a wedding and I really wanted to include Transylvania in our quick tour of the country. I found this tour group on the web. From the moment I contacted them they were so obliging and helpful. We actually got a private tour starting from Bacau instead of Bucharest so we didn't have to worry about driving. We had a wonderful no stress 3 day/2 night tour of Transylvania The communication with the owner Marian was amazing from day one, the booking process was easy and he tailored the whole tour to an amazing amount of detail and catering to our needs. Our guide Tiberiu picked us up from Bacau driving us into Transylvania. His knowledge on his country was wonderful and we saw some amazing fortified churches, citidaels and castles. the accommodation chosen for us was very comfortable and clean. Tiberiu even modified the trip to show us extra parts of the country, sharing the amazing foods and palinka with us. We hiked in some beautiful scenery and foraged in the wild sampling plums, apples, walnuts and mushrooms. We came back from this trip revitalized and feeling back to being yourself after living with the pandemic. We will definitely be back to this wonderful part of the world its so much better than I could have ever dreamt. Our guide really showed us some most amazing sites, scenery, tastes and smells and you could really feel the passion he had for his country. I can't rate this tour higher. Thank you both for such a wonderful experience XXXXX
Response from the operator: We are more than happy for having an authentic experience with us by booking our 2 - Day Medieval Transylvania Private Tour from Brasov, Jackie and Jamie! Thank you for your detailed review, also. We hope to organize your wedding in Romania!

Bran Castle and Sibiu
We booked 2 full-day trips from Brasov, one for Bran Castle/Peles/Rasnov and other for Sibiu. Both were conducted privately by Mr. Negrescu, a fantastic and knowledgeable guide, and an accomplished singer! The highest point was to visit a medieval cistercian church, where he sung Ace Maria in Latin for us <3 Best price in Brasov and we highly recommend!
Response from the operator: Thank you for your visit at our office! You did the right choice by choosing 2 amazing day tours around Brasov: Bran Castle, Peles Castle, Rasnov Fortress and Sibiu. Thank you for your review!

2 - Day Medieval Transylvania Private Tour from Brasov: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Brasov.
How much does 2 - Day Medieval Transylvania Private Tour from Brasov cost?
+
Prices start at $341 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Brasov usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 2 - Day Medieval Transylvania Private Tour from Brasov take?
+
Plan for about 48 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Brasov is not rushed.
Is 2 - Day Medieval Transylvania Private Tour from Brasov worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 58 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable culture & history in Brasov, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 2 - Day Medieval Transylvania Private Tour from Brasov?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is 2 - Day Medieval Transylvania Private Tour from Brasov suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 48-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 2 - Day Medieval Transylvania Private Tour from Brasov?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Brasov can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Brasov and add a light layer if any part of the 48-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 2 - Day Medieval Transylvania Private Tour from Brasov start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Brasov within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Brasov?
+
On Outty we rank every Brasov experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include 3-Castle: Peles,Bran,Rasnov,Sinaia Monastery from Brasov w pickup, From Brasov: Bran, Rasnov & Peles Castles Small-Group Tour, Sighisoara, Viscri & Rupea Small-Group Tour from Brasov. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Brasov?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Brasov?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
