Florin was our private guide for 2 days. This was our first visit to Braşov and Florin was very keen to share his knowledge and experience with us. We enjoyed his company and his in depth knowledge of the local history and the sights. He was very accomodating to our requests over the 2 days. Highly recommend Florin.
Thank you!
Florin was an excellent guide. He started our day with a brief history of the country and why the Peles Castle and King were so important to the people of Romania. Also accommodated our requests. Very safe driver. Wonderful day.
Thank you Brenda!
During the tour we were accompanied by Florin who explained the history of Romania. In the castle of Peles he told us a lot about every room we visited, secret doors and real anecdotes. He left us time to take pictures and look calmly without giving us limits and was very kind, nice and helpful. We recommend it for this tour, you will not be disappointed.
Grazie!
An experienceful and rewarding excursion, despite the weather. Florin was a committed and good guide. Negative with long lines to get into Peles despite pre-purchased tickets.
Good peole,just a big line to wait for the entrance. Not so easy to find a parking place durring the weekends. Good restaurants in the area
Thank you Florin! We had a great day in your company :) We chose Florin from previous reviews & were not disappointed. Communications before the booking were superb & on the day we were picked up on time in Florin's very comfortable & warm car for a day trip to the castles. Florin also told us the history of Romania & learned so much about his country. We thought Florin's tour was great value for money; entrance fees were extra but we only paid those if we wanted to go inside the castles. We use public transport wherever we can but this tour for a day can really only can be done with private transport & we didn't want to be on & off a coach all the time. It's a great advantage having Florin's private tour. Highly recommended
Thank you!
10/10. I don't think I would have enjoyed my day half as much in these places without Florin. He brings a lot tot he experience and is very well priced for what you get. Florin picked me up right from my hotel, I didn't have to wait a minute longer than the agreed time. He drove very well and I felt safe the entire trip. He speaks very good English and has a much more detailed knowledge of the area's history. At two locations, other guides overheard him telling me about the sites, and they asked him for the stories! He is very patient but at the same time won't waste time on anything you're not interested in. He is very enthusiastic and brings the spots you visit to life with his stories. As a solo traveler, I couldn't be happier with how my day tour went. We saw Bran, Rasnov and Peles. Learning the history and purpose of each place from Florin helped with perspective. He's a stand up guy and you'll have a great time with him.
Our guide Florin was exceptionally helpful and knowledgeable. We went on a private tour to Peles castle and the Salt mines with him. Very enjoyable day. Highly recommended driver/guide.
Had a great day out. Florin was really knowledgeable. He was helpful with finding the best affordable lunch place near Bran castle. I would highly recommend.
good guide knowledgeable saw 2 castles and 1 fortress with beautiful nature around and amazing architecture
Thank you!
