Please note that my free walking tour is not suitable for kids under 5 & people with mobility issues. 

Please get in touch with me before the tour if you have special needs. 

My groups are small and I want all the people attending to have a good time. 

Thank you for understanding! 


Brasov area gets busy at weekends / in summer as it is a very popular holiday destination for locals, too. 

Traffic jams are common around the castles, including on the National Road from Bucharest. 

Brasov has a small airport and a few international flights to Italy, Germany, UK, Budapest and Poland. 

Tickets for PeleΘ™ castle in particular sell out fast and long lines for Bran Castle, too even with skip-the-line tickets, especially at weekends. 

Please feel free to get in touch with me if you need further assistance.

10 REASONS  to choose my walking tour:
