  It was a wonderful experience! We were more than impressed by the country and its people. We really enjoyed the Halloween hype, especially in Bran. What we hadn't expected in this form was the extremely high volume of traffic, which left us stuck in traffic jams every day. This reduced our sightseeing time from time to time. Knowing this, we would have liked to start the day half an hour earlier. There is probably little that can be done to optimize the traffic routes in view of the lack of alternative routes. Our driver proved himself a hero of the road and the side roads every day. Bravo! Unfortunately, our group was not a role model for punctuality. Claudia is a very committed tour guide all round, with a brilliantly comprehensive knowledge that she knows how to convey in an understandable way. This is precisely why she can guide a group more tightly. If it becomes clear at the 3rd appointment that you will only be starting 20 minutes later than planned, then you just have to set the meeting time half an hour earlier. That's it. I say this from experience. I worked in the tourism industry for 45 years and occasionally also led groups. The organization of TourRadar was 100% perfect from A-Z. Thank you for that H.Leitke

  It was an amazing experience! The itinerary was perfect for seeing all of the amazing sites and castles. Laurentiu was so knowledgeable about the area and the history of Romania. I learned so much more than I expected! Also, our driver Mihai was the best! He transported us safely from destination to destination. Laurentiu and Mihai were the BEST! They made sure we had a great experience, and went above and beyond to make us all happy. I highly recommend this tour!

  Best tour ever. Made great by our tour guide Claudia and our bus driver Sile. Nothing was a problem and Claudia was passionate about her beautiful country, best guide ever. Sile our driver always looked after us and got us as close as he could to our destinations. The country is so beautiful and the Halloween party was great. We had an amazing group also. You need to book this tour, you won’t regret it.

  This tour was on my bucket list as Halloween is my fav time of year, plus I love the vampire theme, but aside from that this tour was one of, if not THE best guided tours I've ever been on & I've been on at least 10. Romania is spectacular, SO beautiful! The itinerary was FAB, plus saw all things Dracula, where Vlad was born, where he was entombed, the castle, the Carpathian mountains, but also I think what made the trip so special was our guide, Laurentiu. He was fantastic, he's from Romania, grew up there, so much fascinating knowledge, was funny & easy on the eyes too! ;) But not only that he was always calm, cool & collected, very articulate speech & never rushed, made 4 a really relaxing & pleasant tour, he is just the best!

  Our tour guide Laurentiu (aka Lawrence) was amazing. He was equal parts informative and funny. Very easygoing and answered all our questions. The itinerary itself was good. I would definitely would have liked at least an entire day in Sibiu and Sighișoara at minimum and another whole day in Brasov. I would not mind if the tour was longer and the price would certainly be worth it. Romania is a much more beautiful country than I expected and I can’t wait to visit other parts!

  Excellent and our guide was outstanding. We called him Lawrence since we had difficulty pronouncing his real name. He was informative, friendly and enjoyed him.

  Our guide was great, the accommodations varied from good to OK, the towns we visited were very nice though some places were closed and we could not enter, the Halloween party was fun though I recommend having the “off day” be the following day. Overall had a great time! Romania is beautiful ❤️

  Romania is wonderful and it was great seeing all the towns that we were able to. The group was an excellent size with 8 people. All of the places listed in the original tour itinerary were not visited and I never received an updated itinerary that 2 of the other guests on the tour received. It’s a very full schedule especially when taking into consideration the amount of traffic, so you’ll be sacrificing time somewhere, most often we chose to skip lunch and push on. I was disappointed about the day leading up to the Halloween party. We spent very little time in Sighisoara, so we were unable to eat at Vlads birthplace for lunch or see much of the town. Since we were on a Halloween tour I feel like there should have been more of an emphasis around Halloween related events. The tour guide and driver did their best to make sure we reached everything, but the schedule is impossible with the current traffic conditions. It was also the week that their schools try different things, so there was a large number of kids at a lot of the locations which added to wait time to get into places and while touring them. I did love Romania and I’m already planning to visit again. Partying at bran castle is a once in a lifetime event that everyone should do. Loved our tour guide Lorenzo, he had a lot of interesting information to share. I personally would of loved to hear more about local myths, but I did enjoy all the historical and personal stories. Can’t wait to visit Romania again!

  A tour to Romania had been a dream of mine for well over a decade, so when the time came to plan my next big trip, I finally decided that it was time. AND I WAS NOT DISAPPOINTED! Laurentiu was the most incredible guide, could never have asked for better. He was so knowledgeable, and what he wasn't entirely sure of he sought to find out and confirm information for us. The small number of the group made it easier to get around places without too much confusion, and we really did become a great group of friends. While the Halloween and Dracula aspect was definitely the big pull for this trip (the Halloween Party at Bran Castle was an absolute highlight), getting to know a country that was so beautiful and so steeped in rich history was an experience I will never, ever forget. The only tiny issues were a few organisation elements from the company itself, but other than that, this trip was a dream come true. If you want the chance to truly experience everything this beautiful country has to offer, look no further. I have left a piece of my heart in Romania and I will for certain be back one day
