    Amazing

    Our guide, Mathias, was fantastic from start to finish. We encountered bad weather and some traffic issues and he drove bravely and safely the entire time. We are so grateful we booked this trip seeing what Mathias had to go through to get us safely to our tremendous destinations. Each trip stop was greatly enhanced by Mathias's stories and history. We booked the 5-day Dracula Legends tour. Our interest in Dracula was not our main intent, but to truly see the best of the TRansylvain region, this tour was perfect. We were so exhausted every night with beautiful sights and fascinating history. Each accomodation was unique and adequate. Romania does not seem to provide water kettles in the rooms so that was a challenge for us coffee lovers. The Dracula theme hotel was creepy funny. The best part was not having to worry about anything on this tour as we were clearly in good hands with our guide. Highly recomend this experience to everyone!

    Response from the operator: Thank you very much for your kind review! We are really happy that you enjoyed this tour and we hope to see you soon again. Trip2Ro

    Five stars to tick are not enough to express our experience in Romania!!!

    Romania is a beautiful country which offers plenty of sightseeing. We enjoyed the nature, scenery, structures, palaces, churches, food and above all the legend of dracula, which is the highlight of this tour. This tour really focuses on the legend itself, blended with history and culture. I travelled with a small group of two elderly and two children, five in total between 4th and 11th September 2018. The tour was expertly set and fit for everyone with plenty to see and do. At first I thought it was going to be challenging, having to change hotels every day and with the amount of travel it entails, but it was all very comfortable and easily manageable. We have stayed in 6 different hotels, all of which were very comfortable and offered us a good service. Some were excellent, others very good. The themed hotels were a must-do, obviously one has to consider the theme of the tour and not expect any superior luxury in these specific hotels, after all they are themed! My kids enjoyed the Castel Dracula and the House of Dracula most due to their locations and the decor of these two hotels. The locations visited were beautiful, palaces, churches, mountains, cities, old towns ... you name it, Romania has it. The food was also delicious. We ate in different places every day and we loved trying different Romanian dishes every time. Food was very good and prices extremely reasonable. All the above, altogether made our holiday exceptional, but what made it so very special was our Tour Guide. We were extremely lucky to meet a person who went out of his way to make our time in Romania an unforgettable experience. George Panica, Trip2Ro was our driver, our guide, our aide, who spent the week with us and helped us in all possible ways. He drove us to the locations, was patient enough to cater for two elderly and two children (two extremes), skipped queues to get us tickets, shared information and history of the place wherever we went and suggested excellent restaurants where we dined every single day. He then went out of his way to help us with luggage during our daily transfers, made special arrangements for my kids to experience more fun stuff, he surprised us with a couple of beautiful photos, he was patient with my parents as on occasions they were very slow ... one does not meet a person like George every day and I have no words to thank him enough. I highly recommend Romania to those who would love to experience an excellent holiday and especially this specific tour to dracula lovers!

    Response from the operator: Thank you Rita for your review. I really enjoyed in being your tourguide in this tour.

    I would definitely recommend this...

    <p>I would definitely recommend this tour - a great way to see Romania, especially on your first visit. Our guide was Paul who was very accommodating, knowledgeable and a terrific driver. We got to see everything we wanted, plus more. The hotels were all very different from modern to historical and the locations were great so that when our tour ended for the day, we could walk around the city on our own. The least favourite site was Lake Saganov Monastary cost 15Lei per person and there was virtually nothing to see inside. The favourite town was Brasov - lots of activity and restaurants. The best hotel was Hotel Transylvania in Aba Iulia. The favourite meal for ambiance not the food was in the torture chamber of the Hotel House of Dracula 4 Star, a replica of Dracula's Castle. Peles Castle was our favourite castle very busy though and we only found a 1-person washroom so there was a very large line-up. When in Romania try a Hungarian Kurtos-Kolac - covered in nuts or sugar/cinnamon - they are found at many stands throughout.</p>

    Response from the operator: Thank you for taking the time to leave an explicit and nice review for the tour. Best Regards, George Trip2Ro

    5-Day Private Dracula's Legends Tour from Bucharest: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Bucharest.

    How much does 5-Day Private Dracula's Legends Tour from Bucharest cost?

    +

    Prices start at $1772 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Bucharest usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does 5-Day Private Dracula's Legends Tour from Bucharest take?

    +

    Plan for about 120 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 Bucharest is not rushed.

    Is 5-Day Private Dracula's Legends Tour from Bucharest worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 53 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 4 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Bucharest, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule 5-Day Private Dracula's Legends Tour from Bucharest?

    +

    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 5-Day Private Dracula's Legends Tour from Bucharest suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 120-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book 5-Day Private Dracula's Legends Tour from Bucharest?

    +

    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 Bucharest 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 Bucharest and add a light layer if any part of the 120-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does 5-Day Private Dracula's Legends Tour from Bucharest 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 Bucharest 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 Bucharest?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Bucharest experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The Real tour of Communism, Bucharest Highlights Walking Tour, Top Gear Road, Small-group max 7 pax with Pick-up, Transfăgărăşan. 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 Bucharest?

    +

    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 Bucharest?

    +

    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.
