Sighisoara is a lovely place to visit
Unfortunately Dracula’s castle has nothing to do with Dracula or vlad the impaler. the castle is not a castle, more like a fortified house, inside there is a very basic house related more to the Romanian royal family than vlad . He didn’t stay at this location at all!

Cristian was absolutely amazing.
He picked us from the hotel and the car comfortably seated 3 ppl.
From the beginning, he’s very engaging.
He started by introducing the city a little to us and answering any questions we had.
Then he continued to talk about the Clouj area - he’s super knowledgeable about the area because he has a degree in geography and tourism.
What really made me think he’s a great guide is he was able to talk to things we pass by on the highway and give us a history lesson on Romania.
His knowledge is admirable.
When we at the castle, he also offered to let us walk around to check out souvenirs while he waited in line. It was 29C and he was offering to do that for us.
There’s not a dull moment when in the car with him. Absolutely a treat.

I highly recommend this trip. It is definitely worth both the time and money. You will not only see a lot, but also learn a lot. Cristian is a terrific guide who tailors things to your needs. He gave us excellent information at the two sites as well as gave us a broad overview of the history of Romania as we were driving between places. He makes it personal and pleasurable.
Sighișoara is a cute town with a lot of personality. Pretty to walk around and learn about. Bran Castle was also pretty and different from other castles I have been to. They play on that vampire element at the castle, even though in reality there isn't much of that here historically. If you are in Transylvania, it is worth seeing though.
The drive between places is better on the way there because you have two stops to look forward to, but all in all it wasn't a super long drive. Cristian keeps you informed and entertained and you see so much of the pretty countryside on the way too.
