My friend and I booked our 5-night, 6-day private tour directly with Visit Transilvania Travel (www.visittransilvania.ro). Our guide David, was prompt to reply and easy to book with. I found a few very positive reviews about this tour but was still a little unsure about how it would go. Regardless of any trepidation, we booked and hoped for the best. And the BEST is what we got! David is an absolute gem. He was SO knowledgeable about all-things Romania; it was like traveling with a private historian. We started in Bucharest, drove to Transylvania, and saw many churches, UNESCO sites, castles, small and large towns - ALL narrated by David. It was extraordinary, and it made me fall in love with the country. He was an excellent driver and so patient. He was pleasant the entire time, and we really enjoyed his company. Do not hesitate to book a tour with David or this tour company. I would recommend him and ANY tour they offer to anyone. It was truly memorable and a highlight of our 3-week trip to the Balkans.

Our Expectations were Exceeded!
My husband and I took the 4 day small group tour with your guide Nicu and has our expectations exceeded! The hotel pick-up and drop-off were convenient and seamless. Every step of the tour was well thought out, including when to leave to avoid long queues and balancing walking distance over the 4 days. Our guide was well versed in Romanian history and of all of our stops along the way. The hotel in Brasov was clean and comfortable and the breakfast was filling. We especially enjoyed the stop for the traditional Romanian meal and horse carriage ride. Nicu was very helpful answering our questions and always ready to point us in the right direction with recommendations for our free time in the evenings. 10/10 Recommend!

Great experience in Transylvania
We had an amazing trip in Transylvania. It is a beautiful country and was shown to best advantage by guide David. Everything was well organised and the inn was surprisingly comfortable for a 3 star hotel

Transylvania Tour
We had a group of six Australians and did the 3 day Dracula tour of Transylvania - we picked this tour after much research and it fitted with our limited time - we got a fantastic tour of the region of translvannia, alot of interesting history with the occasional Dracula reference. The city of Brasnov and the surrounding countryside was spectacular. The hotel was very nice and had the best location near the square with lots happening each night. Our tour guide David was funny, efficient and his information was neverending - he answered every question with patience and good humour. I would highly recommend this company. Also we added a bear tour at the start and David was very helpful with the research and booking of the tour.

Transylvania in three days - awesome.
Our 3 day tour with David was exceptional. Our hotel in Brasov was filled with character and was very comfortable. It was in a great location opposite the town square which is the social centre of Brasov, with an abundance of restaurants and cafes. The atmosphere here is not to missed.
Our guide David is the perfect example of what a small group tour guide should be. His grasp of the English language was of an extremely high standard as was his sense of humour. He arranged all entry tickets including fast tracking us past the extensive queues at some of the attractions we visited.
His knowledge of the history of the placed we visited was great and he presented it in an interesting way.
We all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.

Best Transylvanian Tour
David is a superb tour guide. He really knows his stuff.
There is no waiting in long queues as David has smoothed the way.
Motel choice of Bella Musica in Brasnov was spot on. Close to everything. Only negative is no coffee/tea facilities in room so you have to wait til 7.30am for breakfast.
David and his company are 5 star all the way
