Peles Castle

   Being one of the most spectacular castles in Europe, Peles Castle dazzles tourists with its impressive architecture, amazing details of décor elements and a truly spectacular natural setting.

     Peles Castle was built to become the summer residence of King Carol I of Romania and had cultural, administrative and symbolic purpose. It was built between 1873 and 1914 on a 1000 hectares domain, situated on Sinaia Estate or, as it was called then, Piatra Arsa Estate. The grandiose architecture is the work of Karel Liman and Johannes Schultz

.

Bran Castle

   

Associated rather to the myth of Dracula than true historic figures, the castle gained its fame following Bram Stoker’s homonym novel. The history of the Bran settlement (which means “gate” in Turkish) begins in the time of the Teutonic knights, in the 13th century, when it was a mere fortress. Only a century later did the people of Brasov received permission to build a castle which was finished in 1388.

     Having a troubled history and being passed over between several owners, including being briefly owned by Mircea the Wise, Bran Castle finally ends up in the ownership of Queen Maria in 1920. The current appearance and interior decorations are part of the Queen’s legacy as she was the one who oversaw the restoration works and was in charge of decoration.

TESTIMONIALS

Me and my family visited Bucharest for the first time and we didn’t no what to expect but to our surprise the generous people at Primus Trans made that transition very easy. We toured Bucharest with their help in the best comfort including our little ones, which by the way felt that the Primus Trans child seats were better that the ones at home and to our surprise were free of charge. We told many people about our sight seeing and they were surprised how little we paid for all the services we got. Thank you Primus Trans and we will definitely recommend you to all our friends. Next time we are in Romania we will make arrangements to visit other cities.

I’ve been working with them for many years: absolutely reliable people, well maintained cars, customized services, excellent value for money.They don’t only rent cars, but can also help you when you really need it. I had to fly back to Bucharest with my daughter (who was 13) on Thursady and fly to Maldives via Dubai on Friday. I lost the flight to Bucharest and ...

Me and my partner went to Romania recently for a Bucharest city break. We definitely wanted to visit Peles Castle, Braşov and Bran Castle but didn’t want to use public transport as we were short on time. I found Primus Trans and so glad we booked with them for this day trip! It was excellent value for money, and the service from the initial enquiry right through the end was great. Our driver, Mihai, was brilliant - we felt very safe and comfortable in the car with him. He also offered up some really interesting facts about Romania and its history. Thank you for a brilliant service!

We were very fortunate to "find" Primus Trans. They took my family and I to and from the airport. The drivers (Cristian and Gabriel) were simply outstanding. They were punctual and spoke good English. They were also safe drivers and the vehicles used were clean. Cristian waited with us 15 minutes while our AirbNb owner was running late to make sure that we wouldn't be left destitute. I can't recommend them highly enough.

The service provided by Primus Trans was excellent. The driver picked me up from the airport on time and took me to my destination (close to Ploiesti) super-safely. despite relatively difficult driving conditions due to wintertime. I noticed the driver was very experienced and knowledgeable and felt very safe. I would recommend this service to all business travelers who want to have a headache-free airport transfer from any destination around Bucharest.
