Highlights
  • Peles Castle - The Peles castle was built by the first King of Romania, Carol I of Hohenzollern – Sigmaringen, between 1873 and 1914. By 1883, the year of its inauguration, it was used as summer residence. Between 1890 and 1914, under the supervision of the Czech architect Karel Liman, considered the main architect, the castle was transformed and enlarged. Decoration: in the first shape (1883), both exterior and interior stylistic dominant is provided by the German neo-Renaissance style with two exceptions, the neo-Ottoman and the neo-Rococo styles. In the second stage (1890-1914), fundamental changes to the volumes, façades and interiors enriched the previous stylistic range, adapting the castle to the stylistic pluralism of Historicism.

A highly recommended private tour - Our tour guide was Victor. He was well-mannered, knowledgable, friendly, and professional. He contacted us via Whatsapp the day before to confirm the pick up time. It was a pity that we did not get to see Peles Castle because there was a car accident, and the traffic became a grid lock. It was a long day for him. Bran Castle was beautiful, and so as the City of Brasov.

Dracula's Castle - The guide was terrific. Very knowledgeable with lots of great stories. I was a long drive day but certainly worth the time. Highly recommended especially if the guide is Catalin.
