(Translated by Google) The story is poorly handled. The digital materials used in the museum are childish. To associate a place with such history solely with Dracula is a shortcut. The presentation of the torture instruments could be enhanced with animation. I recommend a night out in the natural beauty surrounding the castle. (Original) Hikaye kötü işlenmiş. Müzede kullanılan dijital materyaller çocuksu. Böyle bir tarihin olduğu yeri sadece draculayla özdeşleştirmek kolaya kaçış olmuş. İşkence aletlerinin sunumu animasyon yapılarak etkisi artırılabilir. Kalenin çevresi doğa harikası bir gece kalkınmasını öneririm.

(Translated by Google) I really enjoyed it; I didn't find Nosferatu, but perhaps I should have looked more carefully. Hugs to the family. (Original) Me gustó mucho, no encontré a nosferatu pero quizás debería haber buscado mejor. Un abrazo a la familia

Is nice, but overrated, everyone expect more because of the Dracula story that has nothing to do with the place itself

(Translated by Google) A really interesting place. Beautifully decorated and well worth a visit. (Original) Super interessanter Ort. Ganz toll eingerichtet und einen Besuch wert.

(Translated by Google) A disappointing experience... We paid 200 lei per person for priority access tickets, so that we wouldn't have to wait in line. We were happy because it came with a guided tour included, in addition to saving us from the queue. The queue was about 200 meters long, on a Monday, in August 2025. The guided tour was poorly organized. They put us together, Romanians and foreigners (as almost everywhere, the Romanian, understanding, accepts to do the tour in English, so that everyone understands; we accepted too). Some of the people, a little angry, rightly so, because they came from a cruise and had been promised a separate tour, just for them. Inside, in the castle, an indescribable crowd... we were one on one, both tourists with and without a guided tour, from beginning to end. This denotes the greed of the current owners. In other places, in Romania or abroad, there is a limit on the number of tourists per hour, but at Bran Castle it is by the number of people (money to spend). Our guide didn't even wait for us to all get into the room he was in, before he started talking. It was harder for us to hear him, because they didn't give us headphones and it was, as I said, noisy. Anyway, we heard 80%, enough to convince ourselves that he wasn't saying anything interesting. After the guided tour, we visited the "time tunnel", also included in the 200 lei ticket, for which we stood in a very slow-moving queue. The time tunnel is basically a long room, with images on screens of Vlad the Impaler and others, who seemed to be looking after you depending on how you moved. Nothing impressive. The only nice thing was the elevator ride to the tunnel, because as it went down, images were projected on the walls of the elevator, something rather interesting for children. I give an extra star because, in a small room, old videos of the royal family were playing, especially Queen Maria. The furniture, the costumes in the castle... nothing is original, everything is replicas. If you want interesting stories and original things, go to the Bran National Museum, located opposite, which, unfortunately, is housed in a former guesthouse building. The ladies there will tell you a lot. In 2011, when I was there the previous time, it was much more airy, more pleasant, more civilized. If you have a choice between Peleș and Bran, go to Peleș. (Original) O experiență dezamăgitoare... Am dat 200 de lei de persoană pentru bilete cu acces prioritar, ca să nu stăm la coadă. Ne surâdea fiindcă venea cu tur ghidat inclus, pe lângă că ne scăpa de coadă. Coada era de vreo 200 de metri, într-o zi de luni, în luna august 2025. Turul ghidat a fost prost organizat. Ne-au băgat laolaltă români și străini (ca aproape peste tot, românul, înțelegător, acceptă să de facă tur în engleză, să priceapă toți; am acceptat și noi). Unii dintre oameni, un pic supărați, pe bună dreptate, fiindcă veneau de pe o croazieră și li se promisese tur separat, doar pentru ei. Înăuntru, în castel, o aglomerație de nedescris... am fost om în om, atât turiști cu tur ghidat, cât și fără, de la început până la sfârșit. Asta denotă lăcomia actualilor proprietari. În alte locuri, în România sau în afară, există o limită de turiști pe oră, însă la Castelul Bran se merge pe cantitate (banul să iasă). Ghidul nostru nici măcar nu aștepta să ajungem toți în încăperea în care era el, că și începea să vorbească. Ne-a fost mai greu să îl auzim, fiindcă nu ne-au dat căști și era, cum ziceam, hărmălaie. Oricum, am auzit 80%, suficient cât să ne convingem că nu zicea nimic interesant. După turul ghidat, am vizitat "tunelul timpului", tot inclus în biletul de 200 de lei, pentru care am stat la o coadă care se mișca foarte încet. Tunelul timpului e practic o încăpere lungă, cu imagini pe ecrane cu Vlad Țepeș și alții, care păreau că se uită după tine în funcție de cum te mișcai. Nimic impresionant. A fost drăguț doar mersul cu liftul până la tunel, fiindcă, pe măsură ce cobora, erau proiectate imagini pe pereții liftului, ceva mai degrabă interesant pentru copii. Dau o stea în plus pentru că, într-o mică încăpere, se derulau filmulețe vechi cu familia regală, îndeosebi Regina Maria. Mobilierul, costumele din castel... nimic nu e original, toate sunt replici. Dacă doriți povestiri interesante și lucruri originale, mergeți la Muzeul Național Bran, aflat vizavi, care, din păcate, e găzduit în clădirea unei foste pensiuni. Doamnele de acolo vă vor spune multe. În 2011, când am fost data precedentă, a fost mult mai aerisit, mai plăcut, mai civilizat. Dacă aveți de ales între Peleș și Bran, mergeți la Peleș.

(Translated by Google) Very poor unfortunately, there are about 10 rooms open, of which 2 have to be paid extra, and it's not even worth it, a few pictures on the walls, little furniture, TVs in some rooms and some projected on the walls... Way too many people, you should restrict and let groups of max 30 people inside so you can at least breathe! The tickets are way too expensive for what they offer, it's a total disappointment. Too bad.. We won't be coming again... (Original) Foarte slab din pacate, sunt deschise vro 10 camere din care la 2 trebuie platite extra, si nici nu merita, cateva poze pe pereti, mobila putina, televizoare in unele camere si cateva proiectate pe pereti... Lume mult prea multa, ar trebuii restrictionat si lasat grupe de max 30persoane inauntru ca sa poti sa sii respiri macar! Biletele sunt mult prea scumpe pentru cea ce ofera, este o dezamagire totala. Pacat.. Nu mai venim...

(Translated by Google) Absolutely! A fantastic sightseeing walk, you'll be thoroughly entertained. I was there on a weekday evening around 6 pm, it was quiet, no waiting time, and you can easily buy tickets from the machine at the entrance. It's definitely worth getting tickets for the torture chamber and the time tunnel separately!!!! (Original) Unbedingt! Toller Besichtigungsspaziergang, man wird hier gut unterhalten. Unter Woche abends ca.18:00 dort gewesen, wenig los, keine Wartezeit, die Tickets kann man sich super einfach beim Eingang am Automaten ziehen. Folterkammer und den Zeittunnel extra zu ziehen, lohnt sich!!!!

(Translated by Google) The price is unfair, considering what they show you is nice, but not as satisfying as it seems. It's all advertising. (Original) Prezzo disonesto per quello che ti fanno vedere è bello ma non così soddisfacente come sembra. È tutta pubblicità.

(Translated by Google) We went on a weekday evening around 6 pm. It was perfect for us; it wasn't very busy. If you're in the area, it's definitely worth a visit! (Original) Wir waren unter der Woche am Abend etwa um 18:00. Für uns hat es perfekt gepasst, es war wenig los. Wenn man in der Nähe ist, zahlt sich der Besuch auf jeden Fall aus!

(Translated by Google) It was a terrible place to come without any real content in terms of history, you could hardly move around the castle because of the amount of people, in my opinion it is just a fortress that has been completely touristified, and just turned into a money machine and disappointment for me, I would definitely not recommend visiting this if it is history you come for, all the things in there were old props from old movies. And up to several places in the castle you could buy yourself exclusive places that you could see, but it was additional purchase after additional purchase, in an already expensive bill to come in and see something so sad (Original) Det var et forfærdeligt sted at komme uden noget rigtigt indhold i forhold til historien, man kunne næsten ikke bevæge sig rundt i slottet på grund af mængden af folk, det er i min mening bare en fæstning som et blevet totalt turistifiseret, og bare et blevet til en pengemaskine og skuffelse for mig, vil klart ikke anbefale at man besøger det her hvis det er historie man kommer for, alle ting derinde var gamle rekvisitter fra gamle film. Og op til flere steder i slottet kunne du købe dig eksklusive steder som du kunne se, men det var tilkøb efter tilkøb, i en forvejen dyr regning for at komme ind og se noget så sørgeligt
