    • TravelMaker OperatorWritten July 2024

      If group books this week, we provide private car and private guide. To be at airport by 2pm, you would need to skip Peles Castle, only visiting Bran Castle before airport departure

      Tony

      TravelerWritten July 2024

      Agreed to skip Peles Castle to catch flight. Requesting potential price negotiation to $510 per person for reduced attraction tour

    • TravelMaker OperatorWritten July 2024

      Cannot offer discount because: private tour with private minibus, large minibus needed for group, entrance fees not included, itinerary not significantly shorter

    • TravelMaker OperatorWritten June 2024

      Normally, you will be back in Bucharest around 7:30 pm. However, if you start your last day earlier, you could be in Bucharest earlier.

      Martha

      TravelerWritten June 2024

      We would need to know when we will start our tour day to make the return feasible for a 7.30 pm flight.

    • TravelMaker OperatorWritten June 2024

      If your flight is at 7:30 pm, you should be in the airport around 5:30 pm and we have just realized this is not feasible as the last day is the most interesting of the tour with many visits and a long drive. We are very sorry.
