We were the first tour of the day which we thought would be a good thing. Because nearby Peles Castle is closed on the day we were there, more people were in attendance. We met our guide, but because of tight quarters, it was slow to get into the attraction before the crowd thinned out. Our guide was good and had lots of great background about the castle and the Dracula facts and legend. As the tour progressed, crowds thinned out which made the experience more enjoyable. Glad we did it, just would choose a different day to aamke the experience even more enjoyable.
