About this trip
This private three-day trip pairs Bucharest with Transylvania, giving you a private guide and vehicle rather than a fixed group schedule. You start in the capital, taking in its mix of grand architecture and history, then head north into the hills for castles and medieval streets.
The pace is relaxed and sightseeing-led, built around a small set of well-known landmarks rather than packing in dozens of stops. It suits families or small groups who want the highlights covered without rushing.
Accommodation is 3-star hotels or guesthouses with breakfast included, with the option to upgrade to 4- or 5-star if you want something more comfortable.

- Florin was professional, fluent English speaker, safe driver, and genuinely cared about guests experiencing Romania properly.
- Salt mines and Peleş Castle left visitors genuinely amazed; Bran Castle impressive but prepare for heavy tourist crowds.
- Itinerary felt overstuffed for some—too much crammed into single days, especially if you're slower-paced traveller.
- Accommodation quality varies; some nights were comfortable, others fell short expectations. Confirm lodging details before booking.
