The whole point of my experience was to going to poenari castle and I would say I was disappointed when I finally arrived after a four hour drive only to find out that the castle was closed and under restoration. I made the climb all the way to the top anyway because I paid a pretty penny for it .

out of the 3 places planned for the visit, 2 were closed. Luckily the guide found other places for us to visit. It's really a shame not to have been warned before to be able to cancel or change the program,

Christian is absolutely the best and very knowledgeable. Based on how much fun I had on this tour, I will definitely book more tours with him in the future. I highly recommend him as a tour guide

Gabriel was very knowledgable on many subjects (religion, politics, flora, fauna, architecture). He was also very responsible and drove safely - so important when driving back late in the evening through snowy mountains!

I relay tray to find him (Dracula) in his town, in his castle, on the restaurants, or on the streets, even on night fall. I did not! So the only thinks that make me come back in this location are: Exceptionally beautiful view, kind and welcoming people, nice food and drink, not very expensive.

After being cancelled by one company early in the week, due to fires near Poienari Fortress I called Diana at UnzipRomania desperate to do the tour and she was more than helpful with acquiring fire status daily and informing me of same. On the friday we got the all clear to do the tour on saturday. I was estatic! As was my 15 year old who was not overly keen on another walking tour of another European city.
The day of the tour started at 0730 with Diana and Lucien, both warm and friendly. Diana was very informative with local legends and history, which continued throughout the day; which was fascinating to hear about, especially the dispelling of the Vlad Tepes (the impaler) tales.
We visited Targoviste Princely Court - The real court of Vlad the Impaler, Curtea de Arges and Poienari Fortress - Vlads home - the whole 1480 steps, very steep but manageable with frequent stops, taking 30 - 40 minutes...
All the sites had their own special qualities that photos can not fully do justice; coupled with the tales of the day and history provided by Diana, the 11 hour day went very fast.
Both guides very considerate with regular breaks and a local Romanian restuarant for lunch.
Awesome day and history...Vlad a Romanian Hero!
Thanks again to Diana and Lucien for the awesome day!
I highly recommend this company for your own special "searching for Dracula" experience

What a wonderful tour and a wonderful tour guide. Lucian dynamically and energetically opened my eyes to Romania and especially Peles Castle, Dracula's Castle and the city of Brasov. Lucian took me to a great restaurant for traditional Romanian cuisine and told me stories of Romania. He knew good locations for great photographs. By the end of the day, I was thoroughly and satisfyingly exhausted. I do not hesitate to recommend this tour and especially Lucian as your tour guide.
