Review of a Brasov day trip to Libearty Bear Sanctuary, Bran Castle, and Rasnov, with honest advice on costs, crowds, walking, and value.
“The driver was friendly and very knowledgeable. However we expected to be out from 08.30 till 16.30, but were returned to Brasov at 14.30. In addition, the trip was to include a visit to Rasnov Fortress, but when we arrived we were told is was closed and had been for sometime. We should have been informed of this as the overall cost of the trip was to include this, (not any entry fee). The visit to the bear sanctuary was amazing and well worth a visit.

See Peles, Bran, Rasnov, and Sinaia Monastery from Brasov in one small-group day, with hotel pickup, English guiding, and mountain views.
“A great day with a fantastic and knowledgable guide. This is a busy tour and a full-on day with four major attractions. Marius never pressured us from a time perspective. He would tell us that it was our day and to take as long as we wanted to explore the attractions. The line at Bran castle was extremely long. Marius' "skip the line knowledge" was invaluable and saved us at least 1.5 hours liniing up. Could not have asked for a better guide.”
Explore Bran Castle, Rasnov Fortress, a bear sanctuary, and a palinca distillery on a small-group day trip from Brasov.
“Bran Castle as as expected beautiful to see lots of history with a dash of cheesy vampire myth thrown in. The bear sanctuary was amazing we saw loads more than expected and and the story's are truly touching some sad but with the hope they provide. Our guild Vlad was informative and engaging through out. we found the distillery was not to our taste but am sure others will enjoy the host was lovely. The Rasnov fortress is not to be missed its not a tourist trap and has amazing views of the area.”
