6 day Vlad tepes related tour. Emil Barbalescu my driver/guide was really friendly, positive ,always entertaining,professional and knowledgeable. Always had a plan B if there were roadworks or places closed unexpectedly . He was really flexible, so we even managed to fit in some extra stops by tweaking the itinerary. Superb level of English. Can't recommend him highly enough. First time I have done this kind of holiday. I usually go on city breaks or driving holidays by myself, so strange being driven but felt safe at all times. Best way to see Romania. It would have been too stressful driving around on my own.

Thank you so much for your detailed and thoughtful review. We are delighted to hear that your six-day Vlad Țepeș-themed tour was such a memorable experience and that travelling with a private guide made exploring Romania feel easy and stress-free.
Your kind words about Emil mean a great deal to us. His friendliness, professionalism, flexibility, excellent English, and ability to adapt quickly when plans changed are exactly the qualities we value in our guides. We are also pleased that he was able to include a few additional stops and make the itinerary feel more personal.
It is wonderful to know that you felt safe and comfortable throughout the journey, especially as this was your first experience of this type of holiday.
Thank you again for your recommendation. We will be very happy to share your lovely feedback with Emil!

Amazing, personalized, memorable
It was an amazing experience. Adalina accommodated all of our very personal requests and changes in stride. She communicated frequently, to ensure we were comfortable from the first email to the last. All admission fees were handled for us, so we were never in lines or without a ticket. Our guide, Emile, was fantastic. His knowledge was impeccable and very personalized. He regaled is with stories of ancient and medieval history on long trips and his insight into the communist paid off Romania was enlightening as well. After seven days it felt like we were family when we parted. Do not hesitate to book with Rolandia. Trust that they will provide you with a one in a lifetime experience in Romania.

“Dracula Beyond the Legend” Tour Highly Recommended
We cannot speak highly enough about how great our Rolandia “Dracula Beyond the Legend” tour was with our guide Marcel in July/August 2023. Marcel spoke incredible English and was immensely knowledgeable about Romanian history, culture, religion, traditions and its flora, fauna, wildlife and geography. He was also an excellent driver and knew exactly how to make the most of every sight and location. We cannot believe how much we saw and experienced; Marcel was dedicated, excited to show off his country’s impressive culture and landscapes, and absolutely indefatigable in terms of energy. We had an absolutely wonderful time and we highly recommend Rolandia’s tours to anyone and everyone. We felt most privileged to see Romania through Marcel’s eyes and cannot imagine any better way to experience this beautiful and richly cultured country. In addition to all the spectacular sights (Bran Castle, Peles Castle, and Sibiu were among our all-time favs, but honestly there are too many highlights to name), we also got to see brown bears up close in Transylvania! Highly recommended!

An Eye-Opening Wonder
We had a wonderful adventure on this tour, with our excellent and friendly guide, Laurentiu. We never saw so many sunflowers in our lives and the Carpathians were breathtaking. As we wondered, our knowledgeable guide brought the history of the region to life, helping us picture what life was and in many cases, still is like there. We particularly loved Sighisoara and Sibiu -- they are living, breathing medieval towns -- vibrant and fascinating. From the ruins of Vlad's court in Targoviste, to the amazing Black Church in Brasov, to Corvin Castle, Romania was an eye-opening wonder for us. In addition, the people that we interacted with were open and kind, with a good grasp of English, and we enjoyed the European ease of dining whenever you want, and everything was fresh. It was a fabulous trip!

Romania
We have just completed a really enjoyable and interesting 8 day trip through Transylvania which was enhanced by our guide, Gelu, whose knowledge, enthusiasm and experience were superb. All the arrangements made by Rolandia worked exactly as expected. We substituted a visit to Peles Castle rather than Snagov Monastery as the former is of more interest and lay on our route. The accommodation throughout (4* hotels) was better than we had expected. All in all, apart from the Bucharest traffic, it was a most enjoyable trip.

Romania is awesome. Great value for money
The itinerary covers the main sites in Transylvania. Our guide Andrei looked after us so well and showed us that there was much more to Transylvania than we thought.

Romania Beyond Dracula
We had a wonderful time, and Romanians are the nicest people we have met. The sights and hotels were beyond our expectations. On the day we were scheduled to drive the transfagarasan highway it was raining and very foggy. Florin suggested we get a cup of coffee and wait for 5-10 min. The fog cleared and we had bright sunshine!!! I got to see the highway . I highly recommend this tour and would definitely recommend Florin as your guide.

This was a great tour! The tour...
<p>This was a great tour! The tour company was great to work with and our guide, Florin, was awesome! Aside from the history lessons Florin provided, he took great care of us. Always made sure we got checked into our hotels without incident. The castles, monasteries and citadels we visited were amazing. Sibiu was a favorite ... a charming Old Town. Romania is a beautiful country full of history, beauty, great food and wonderful people. I would definitely recommend!!</p>
