Trip to Dracula castle - Great trip with a very knowledgable guide would highly recommend. Great trip to Bran and the Deacuka castle and also to the medieval fortress. A must if you are visiting this area

Flexible, affordable, accommodating - Râșnov Fortress was closed for renovations, and I wasn't interested in visiting the bear sanctuary, so Alin, my guide/driver, was able to accommodate the custom-made itinerary I put together -- Hărman and Prejmer (two 12th-century fortified churches just north of Brașov), Bran Castle, and a scenic drive through a ski resort area with spectacular views of Brașov (this last part was Alin's suggestion). It was a great way to see the things i wanted to see, very affordably priced, with super-conventient pickup in the morning and drop-off later in the early afternoon. Hărman and Prejmer are not typical tourist destinations, so it was really great to be able to explore these locations in solitude, which is almost never the case at Bran Castle, the "necessary evil" of Romanian tourism. Bran is a very nice castle (I visited in early November), and it wasn't nearly as overwhelmed with crowds as I'm told it is during the high season (which was a relief). But I did have to endure the kitschy leftover decorations from the Halloween festivities that had happened two weeks earlier. Still, grin and bear the ridiculous Dracula commercialization to see what is a very historically interesting and important castle.

Transylvania - The visit started at Bran Castle and then we went to a second castle called Rasnov with beautiful views of the mountains and the Valley and finally we went to a fortified church from the 14th century. The guide was very friendly and helpful and I recommend to anyone who wants to know the region.
