Really amazing. Had a great trip with Tudor who took us through all the history and made it a great trip. Went to Peles Castle, Bran Castle and then a walking tour of Brasov. Thoroughly enjoyed. The pick up location said the hotel but was slightly away. Can maybe be made clear at the outset. However, the company sent a notification in advance sharing the location and Tony’s number to help us sync
