  Peles Castle is truly extraordinary - the mix of German and Italian Neo-Renaissance styles is eye-catching. The guide explained the history very well, and the experience of having coffee in the garden of the castle was really great. Going to the village of Valea Doftanei, riding a horse carriage, eating local food and mingling with the villagers made our trip even more special..... The scenery is beautiful, but the journey is a bit long, so I gave 4 stars.

• Fantastic castle and countryside tour

  An excellent experience (professional, friendly, knowledgeable). This was an all day event. Laura (our guide) picked us up at the hotel with her driver friend. Both ladies were absolutely lovely and we had a lot of laughs along the way. First stop was Peles castle. The exterior was partially under renovation but you could imagine its beauty. Inside was very impressive - the wood work detail, stained glass windows, chandeliers, mirrors etc. made in Murano. It was filled with the original furniture pieces. Laura provided sufficient history that was not overwhelming. Next, we headed to Laura’s house in a true Romanian village (small and quaint). We met her neighbors who assisted with making us lunch (cheeses, meats, fresh vegetables, dips, grilled trout, potatoes, polenta), which was delicious. We sat on the deck that overlooked her rose garden and fruit trees and enjoyed the fresh air. The family/neighborhood dog, Carmel, was a delight. After lunch, we headed for the wagon hooked up to two horses, which took us through the village and into the mountain country side. The ride is bumpy but safe - just hold on to your hat as it gets wind gusts. The views at the top were stunning. A few grazing cows posed for pictures. Once we got back to the village, we had dessert at Laura’s house - biscuit salami - the name was deceiving as it had nothing to do with salami and it was sweet and tasty. My husband and I enjoyed this tour immensely. We are early 60s and had no issues walking to the castle (it is uphill) or riding in the wagon (don’t recommend for people with a bad back). A truly unforgettable experience.

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

• Amazing insight in Romanian culture and country life

  This tour is one of the best I have ever been on. The tour blends in fact two of the biggest attraction points of Romania: Sinaia, with the royal castle - a must see, a castle emerged from the fairytales, in my view comparable to Hohenschwangau, even though very different in architecture - and the rural charm of Romanian village life. Romania is one of the few countries in Europe where one can enjoy horse drawn carriages (not designed only for tourists, but for daily use) and see small farms supporting the livelihood of the villagers. Secaria village is not only traditional, but it is set against a breathtaking scenery and every single person we got to meet was extremely nice. Yes, on this tour you actually get to meet locals, not only the guides. The guide, Laura, is extremely knowledgeable, engaged and eager to make things happen, whenever possible.

  Amazing experience of royal and rural Romania! The exquisite Peles Castle is always worth a visit and this tour was so informative and fun, full of nice little stories bringing about the old times of the kings and queens of Romania.The tour guide Laura is an amazing person, knowledgeable, dynamic and friendly, keeping all of us engaged and entertained throughout the day. The next stop in the quaint little village of Secaria was a great treat, with delicious local food (notably the “bulz” with local smoked cheese “cascavea”) and walks in the forest. A great weekend experience, combining culture and nature, a few hours away from Bucharest. Highly recommend it.

  After nearly 5 weeks touring eastern Europe my wife and I were keen to step away from the usual packed tourist spots and were lucky enough to be introduced to Laura of Step by Step who arranged a custom full day itinerary. The morning started with a visit to Pele Castle which, after many other European castles, was uniquely different. This was followed up by the Romanian Village experience. Wow, this was what we had been looking for, away from the crowds of tourists and actually experiencing some of traditional rural life. Starting with sitting down to lunch with Laura and her husband in a rural home environment and eating a Romanian home prepared meal. Perhaps the highlight was the nearly 2 hour cart ride. While probably not suited to fairly elderly or infirm travelers, ( the cart is truly rustic and basic but is representative of what is in daily use) the ride through the village and countryside up to 1000m was truly magnificent. You know when you are off the beaten tourist path when the locals are amazed to see you. All in all a wonderful day shared with excellent company.

  We were very fortunate to experience a well-prepared, informative, tasteful and friendly tour in Romania's beautiful Carphatian region. Laura, the organiser is an experienced, knowledgeable and friendly tour guide, very invested in the nature, culture, and food traditions of Romania. She sent us all the information in advance, the schedule was thoughtfully prepared with attention to details. She made the most out of the plan and we were exposed to a rich experience of sightseeing and food tasting. The menu was well planned, it introduced us to several traditional dishes from the region, such as a special type of smoked cheese from that region. So delicious! Another memorable activity was the horse-drawn cart journey through the village, it was very enjoyable and informative to experience a traditional mode of transport, still popular in the rural area. We strongly recommend this tour that combines engaging activities and delicious food.
