This is a shared tour, so you will join a small-group (usually no more than 7 people), but, if you want, you can book a private trip with the same itinerary here.

This tour is not suitable for families with children under 7. We strongly recommend to book a private tour (with the same itinerary) in this case. At this moment, you cannot book online if you travel with children 8 to 12 years old. Please call or send us an email in this case.
If you are travelling alone, it is mandatory to book a single room (normal price + single supplement)
We will book the hotel as soon as you book the tour so the sooner you book the tour, the higher the chances to book a good hotel (based on our previous experience, location, services).
3* is a good standard for hotels in Sighisoara and we did not have complaints. However, if you want to book a 4* or 5* hotel for this trip, we recommend to book the private tour.
