Bärenschutzgebiet, Schloss Dracula und Poiana Brasov-Private Tagestour ab Brasov

We started the day with Dinu collecting us from our central-Braşov Hotel at just after 8am. You need to be at the bear sanctuary quite early so we booked the 9.15am tour. The sanctuary is very well kept and away from any main towns or roads. The sanctuary guides are brilliant and the bears are just so adorable. The stories that accompany so many of them are heart-wrenching but it's great to see them in such beautiful and open surroundings. And they are fully out in the open; it's not like you have to search for them....unless they're in the foliage high up a tree. We then travelled to Bran castle. Dinu, with his perfect English, was a top-notch travel guide and was so incredibly informative about everything at the castle. It is a great place to visit. We can really recommend this tour. Dinu is a fantastic driver and tour guide and the whole day is well worth the money. Plus you get to see lots of this beautiful country.

We really enjoyed this tour, the bear sanctuary and bran castle we're both great, we had a lovely stroll around bran afterwards and then headed to the ski resort to admire some stunning views, our guide Ramona was fantastic, telling us all about the history of Romania and showing us some lovely sights whilst driving through some beautiful towns, I would definitely recommend this tour.

We spent the day very privately with Radu. In the morning we were picked up by him and then drove to Libearty Bear Sanctuary. Thanks to the fond memory of Ramona about a week earlier, we had already bought the tickets for 9 a.m. Which was also good as there are only about 40 tickets for the timeslot and we actually reached this group size. The tour was led by a guide from the Sanctuary and Radu has always given us additional information. In addition, he also asked questions for us because the stories of the guide were partly incomprehensible (partly also due to the group size). Since the group was very large and the guests were sometimes noisy, we often did not understand the guide. We would have liked the group size to be smaller up to about 12 people to just understand more and certainly this would also be more pleasant for the bears and also the guide. We are aware that Radu and Ramona have no influence on it now, but we still wanted to note this here. We continued to Bran Castle. Since we travelled during the holiday season, there was clearly more crowds of people. Again, Ramona had lovingly asked us to buy the tickets online beforehand. This allowed us to queue directly to the castle and not have to go back in line for ticket sales. Together we also got in line. Radu has suggested to us that while he stops in line, we can look at the garden of Bran Castle. We gladly accepted this thankfully and were able to explore the garden a bit. Radu said that we had actually made rapid progress. From our point of view, that wasn't quite so. However, we also have no comparison. The castle was very crowded and we had to focus on the stories of Radu. Radu has always involved each of us and provided us with information. The next day's programme should be a visit to a nearby ski resort. However, as we were less interested in this, we wanted to dive more into the culinary arts. Our wish was to go to typical Romanian food. Radu took us to a beautiful restaurant in the mountains. Not only the food was wonderful, but also the view. Radu, thank you for taking us there and eating with us. That was exactly what we wanted!:)

Ramona gave us a fantastic tour - we learnt so much additional history we weren’t expecting and she took us to experience some authentic Romanian food which was delicious! We enjoyed our day immensely and would highly recommend this day tour with Ramona to everyone!

My wife and I feel very fortunate to have chosen Ramona's company for the two day-tours that we made during our visit to Brasov (the other was to Sighisoara and Viscri). Ramona provides an unhurried touring experience, and shares much information not only about the places visited, but also about Romanian history, culture and food. She is very personable, and it is like touring with a friend. She is also a very good driver which is important on the busy roads in the region. We have done several private tours over the years in various countries, but these tours would be hard to beat.

AMAZING EXPERIENCE! Best tour guide ever … Ramona is kind, patient, knowledgeable… a real pleasure to be with her ! Highly recommend the tour with her 👌👌👌

The bear sanctuary was closed and Ramona gave us a very nice alternative. Her knowledge about the country and the region was very broad and her stories very interesting. Everything was amazing.

We are the owners of the a guest house in the historical part of Brasov and we are very happy to work with Ramona from Day Trips Brasov. All our guests are super exited after returning from her trips, either they went on a cultural tour or hiking tour. She is very trustful person, we always send our customers with all the confidence in any day tour with her. Looking forward for a long-term collaboration :)

I cannot thank Ramona enough for making my 30th birthday one of the best days of my life ! Starting at the Libearty bear sanctuary, moving to Bran castle and then ending in Poiana Brasov with Romania cuisine and beverages, she was an amazing guide and it was a spectacular day ! My favourite part was the bear sanctuary and I recommend all to visit ! Thank you again Ramona and we will be back for another tour with you for sure !

We had a wonderful day at Libearty Bear Sanctuary, Bran Castle and Poiana Brasov. It was really amazing to discover this attractions through professional eyes. The bear sanctuary was such a special place. The bears all have their own story and some of the rescue stories are very moving. Bran Castle was fantastic and because it was during the week day was no line and we could walk inside almost on our own. The way to Poiana Brasov was on a beautiful road and we really enjoy the nature and the fresh air. Full of fun facts and interesting stories, this was one of the best tours we have done and we highly recommend this tour company.
