We travelled independently, not on a tour. We hired an English-speaking guide with a car. His rate included entry to the monasteries. It was our first trip to Romania, so we were not familiar with the driving conditions. It is easy to rent a car from wherever you are staying. The road conditions are not bad at all. Finding directions would be a problem without a GPS. There are lots of monasteries, and they are mostly in the countryside, beautiful but it takes some driving and good information on the most interesting ones. There is little printed information in English. We only visited the monasteries, Dracula was not on the itinerary. Glad to help if you have other questions.
