Awesome Experience in Transylvania with Custom Trip Through Rolandia
Just finished a delightful trip in Romania arranged by the great folks at Rolandia. Our experience was outstanding end-to-end. We received sound advice, a thoughtful, custom itinerary, comfortable and well-located hotels, and a truly wonderful driver/guide (Laurentiu). The itinerary was perfect for my wife and I: one more site would have been too much, yet we would not have cut anything we saw. I suspect we will be going back to Romania and we would definitely use Rolandia and ask for Laurentiu. BTW, I got no compensation or consideration for writing this review!

A Lovely Day Out
We had a wonderful day exploring the bear sanctuary, Bran Castle and Brasov. Although the drive from Bucharest was long, our guide Octavian made this more enjoyable by sharing local information and stories with us at points throughout the journey.

Fabulous trip with Octavian
Oktavian was just superb. From pick up he gave us such an insight into Romanian history. His instructions re drop off, pick up, checking our tickets were fantastic. He told us so much about the sights we were seeing that we got a real feel for each before we arrived. He was also very considerate, with plenty of comfort breaks. I cannot recommend him highly enough

An escape from the city
The trip was with it. We got to see a different side of Romania away from the city. Beautiful scenery along the way and Brasov As a beautiful area.
The bears site was an enlightening experience and we were able to see different bears and hear their stories.
Dracula palace was a must visit - the famous story of dracula attracts lots of tourists but I enjoyed more the surroundings scenery and the green villages.
Catalin our guide was knowledgeable and told us lots of stories about Romania and it's history. Thank you for making the trip enjoyable.
I loved the fact that it was a small group of 3 and was more personalized trip.
It's a full day trip so ensure you are fully energized for it

long rides but great trip with informative host
Booked a tour of Libearty Sanctuary + Bran castle + Brasov. While the former two had their own guides and the Rolandia team were not involved in, guide Ana and driver Dan were friendly and approachable throughout the tour. Be aware that the sanctuary has steep slopes and may be harsh for some. Similarly, Bran castle is also situated atop of a hill with a rather steep slope. Both places were wonderful. Ana was especially knowledgeable about destinations and gave information about Romania's history and culture throughout the long bus rides. The driving was a little chaotic but all in all a wonderful trip and learned loads!

Overall, we are very happy that you had a wonderful trip and came away having learned so much about Romania.

Great mix of nature and culture!
Our visit with Mihai was perfect! It was just what I’d hoped for - a mix of nature and enough city visiting that I felt like I’d visited a bit of Transylvania. Just what I wanted, plus a guide happy to flex when we wanted to stray a little from the strict itinerary. Lovely!

Fantastic tour, would recommend
We would definitely recommend this trip. It involved a lot of travel but this was done in comfort and with our fantastic guide Octavian, who was very knowledgable and allowed us time to explore, not feeling rushed. As first time visitors we recommend visiting the Bear Sanctuary, Bran Castle and Brasov.
Excellent communication from Octavian before, during and after the tour. This helped us plan for our trip and pick up and he provided us with information which we expressed an interest in knowing more about. Thank you Octavian.

Transylvania day visit from Bucharest.
Excellent tour of the main spots of Transylvania. Bear sanctuary informative, Castle Bran not as big as you would think and Brasov a nice town to explore, the cable car in Brasov is worth a sideline visit. Octavius was a great guide and knowledgeable.
