    My husband and I took the Transylvania Castles tour in 4 days from Bucharest May 22-25, 2025. Our tour guide was Anne, and we were the only two tourists on the trip! Anne is a terrific guide, from explaining the complex history of the region to giving us recommendations about good places for vegetarians to find food and things to do during the evenings. The hotels we stayed in were interesting and very central to the towns we visited. Rolandia Tours office was very responsive to my questions and resolved minor issues promptly. I would recommend this tour to anyone interested in Transylvania.

    Ths trip was fantastic and the guide, Marcel, was incredibly knowledgeable with great English and a passion for his country’s history. He drove us very safely and was very caring as well. We felt we had a friend driving us around. We would not hesitate to recommend him and the tour.
