The experience

Peles Castle opens the day: a late-19th-century compound built with an astonishing amount of architectural detail. You'll walk the ground floor and first floor with a guide who speaks English or German, moving through rooms that show the scale and craftsmanship of a royal residence. The castle sits in the foothills and the tour gives you time to take in the exterior and grounds as well.

Cantacuzino Castle comes next, and this one carries a different draw: it's the filming location for the Nevermore Academy in Netflix's Wednesday series. You'll see the actual set, and the tour includes time to photograph the locations and the character displays set up for visitors. After the castle, you get free time at the bazaar at the castle's base for souvenirs before moving on.

Bran Castle, the medieval fortress linked to the Dracula legend and a former summer residence of the Romanian royal family, closes the day. The guided tour covers the interior, and two add-on tours (the torture exhibit and the time tunnel) are included in your booking. Entry tickets to all three castles are paid separately at each site. An air-conditioned vehicle and bottled water are provided throughout the day, and pickup from your hotel in Brasov is included.

Children from age 3 travel comfortably, and the tour suits all fitness levels, though you should be ready for several hours of walking through castle interiors and grounds.
