Our guide, Irina, was very knowledgeable and explained the history of the castle and the various secret passages inside. The castle itself is truly beautiful, especially the main entrance. Highly recommended, it's worth the trip from Bucharest.

It was the best way to buy tickets, but while I received a receipt and my card was charged, I didn't get QR codes. Fortunately, they let us in anyway.
