We were looking for a short guided tour in Europe and came across the 4 days Transylvania Castles Tour for small groups by Rolandia Travels. Since we had never been to Romania before, we decided to explore the country during our short vacation — and it turned out to be a wonderful choice. Romania is truly an underrated gem in Europe.
To our surprise, we were the only couple on the tour, so our guide, Danny, essentially gave us a private experience. His knowledge of Romanian history, culture, and daily life made every stop more meaningful. We explored medieval castles, learned about the region’s past, tried traditional Romanian food, and enjoyed great conversations with Danny about modern life in Romania.
The tour was well organized from start to finish, and we felt taken care of throughout the trip. We would happily recommend Rolandia Travels to anyone looking to discover Romania in an engaging and comfortable way.

Perfect Transylvania Tour
I booked the Transylvania Castles 4-day tour and had the most wonderful experience. The entire experience ran smoothly from being contacted prior to departure until the very end. Ioana was my travel guide, and as I was the only person on the tour, she really gave me a personalized experience, and she was so informative about the history and architecture of every place. Overall, this was the best tour I have ever done and would recommend it to anyone who is interested in visiting Transylvania.

An Outstanding Tour of Romania with Traian
We had an excellent experience with Rolandia Tours. Our guide and driver, Traian, was outstanding—friendly, relatable, extremely knowledgeable and possessed a great dry sense of humour. He explained the history and significance behind everything we visited in a clear and engaging way, which added enormously to our enjoyment of the tour.
Traian was also an exceptionally courteous and considerate driver. He made a point of getting out of the vehicle to open and close the car door for my wife every single time—a small gesture that reflected the very high standard of his service.
We thoroughly enjoyed our time with Traian and would happily recommend both him and Rolandia Tours to anyone visiting Romania.

An amazing exploration of Romanian history and culture
My girlfriend and I took this tour not really knowing what to expect. Wow we were blown away! The tour guide, Ioana, was such a pleasant, enthusiastic, and genuine person who wants the trip to be educational, fun, and memorable. The culture, architecture, history, landscape, and locations themselves are all things we explored with Ioana. It was absolutely spectacular, and super easy-going with many opportunities to explore the historic cities alone and gain much knowledge about the sites you visit. If you are interested in architecture, Romanian/Transylvanian history and culture, book this trip, you will not regret it!!

Your kind words about Ioana mean a great deal to us. Her enthusiasm, warmth, and genuine passion for sharing the country’s history, culture, architecture, and landscapes are exactly what make her such a special guide.
We are also pleased that the itinerary offered a good balance between guided visits and time to explore independently at your own pace.
Thank you again for your enthusiastic recommendation. We will be very happy to share your lovely feedback with Ioana!

Great trip!
Rolandia was fantastic, and our tour guide George was one of the nicest people we've ever met and really did everything to make us feel welcome. Note, we didn't do this exact tour but close - we did a custom private tour that started in Budapest and went to Corvin, Bran, and Peles castles. We stayed overnight in Timisora and Sibiu. Would definitely recommend Rolandia - they made planning very easy and were super accommodating to what we wanted to do. All three castles were very cool to visit, and loved how quaint Sibiu is!

George will be delighted to know he made you feel so welcome. We’re happy we could make planning easy and flexible for you, and we’d love to help you discover even more of Romania on your next visit!

BEWARE of "Guaranteed Departure" with Rolandia!
Beware of "Guaranteed Departure" with Rolandia! I signed up for this 4-day tour and paid for it in advance specifically because as a solo traveler, guaranteed departure was important. At no time during the booking and paying process was any minimum number of people listed or cited. Relying on that, I then reserved non-refundable hotel rooms for the nights before and after the trip.
Several weeks before the trip, Rolandia emails me to cancel the "guaranteed departure". I had to scramble to make my own train, hotel, and day trip bookings. While they refunded my payment and offered alternatives that would not work for me (such as after my flight leaving Romania), they refused to compensate me for my hotel room in Bucharest the night before the guaranteed tour which I could not use because I needed to be in Brasov that night to start tours first thing the next morning.
So, if you see "Guaranteed Departure" from Rolandia, think again!
事業者からの返答
We understand how frustrating it is to receive a cancellation, especially when travel plans are already in place. While we always aim to honor every booking, our guaranteed departure tours do require at least two participants to operate — a detail we will make clearer moving forward.
In your case, when it became clear no other travelers had joined, we notified you weeks in advance, refunded your payment in full, and proposed several alternatives, including day trips, so that you could still enjoy your time in Romania. We regret that these options did not match your schedule.
We also recognize the challenge when separate arrangements such as hotels are booked around a tour. As these are made independently, they are unfortunately outside the scope of what we can amend, but we do encourage travelers to contact us before finalizing plans so we can help guide logistics.
We sincerely value your feedback, as it helps us improve transparency on our website, and we hope you were still able to enjoy your visit to Romania despite this change.
