    Great trip. Greg from Translyvanian tours was fantastic as was Oliver the driver. Bear Sanctuary fantastic and interesting. Lots of bears. Castle was great and interesting for its history and that Bram Stoker never went there and Dracula is a story and did not exist. Local restaurants are nice and not overly expensive.

    At the reservation we arrived on the road Zarnesti - Rasnov, from Zarnesti after the city's Wastewater Treatment Plant make a road to the left on which you go about 2-3 km (unpaved road) and you reach the reservation. It's well worth it

    Dead Mr Greg , Thank you so much -The trip was amazing . We can honestly say We learnt more from you ( and were able to absorb that information )than we have ever learnt in a few hours of a guided tour . This was because you engaged with us and sought out our particular interests in a natural and unassuming way . What a gift you have . It was like history , fun , geography , laughter , art , heraldry , anecdotes , architecture , exercise and time lines ,all rolled in to one ! And , to finish thank you for showing us to the restaurant for a delicious bowl of spaghetti and creamed lemon Salmon . We will definitely revisit the castle and the area and look at it with fresh eyes . Andy and David , Taunton , England

    Greg was very knowledgeable and very accommodating as I had booked the wrong week and had to change the date. This was no problem at all. The tour of Brasov was great and we learned a lot about the history of the place. The bears were good - but you don't pay extraneous to take pictures with a camera as you cant get clear shots without fences and you can take pictures on your phone for free. Bran castle was great too. Greg was polite and knowledgeable, the meal was great and all in all I cant complain at all. Well worth the expense.
