About this activity
Day 1:
Day one is all about castles in the mountains and the picturesque little villages at their foothills. Your guide will pick you up from the hotel and set off to Sinaia, Romania’s most famous mountain resort. Your first stop is Peleș Castle, an architectural gem in the heart of the Carpathian Mountains. Prepare to feel like royalty while visiting the richly decorated rooms that are perfectly preserved.
After you will embark on a scenic drive along the mountains and your tour continues with another castle, one that is renowned in the entire world, Bran Castle or Dracula Castle.
Day one ends in the remote villages of Măgura and Peștera where you’ll have the opportunity to enjoy the breathtaking landscape of these small traditional settlements situated between the Bucegi Mountains and Piatra Craiului.
*You will be accommodated at an excellent rated 3/4 stars guesthouse in Magura Village with breakfast included.
Day 2 :
The second day is all about knights in shiny armor and medieval walls. First, you will enjoy a walking tour of the old town of Brașov, a beautiful mountain town and the largest medieval city in Transylvania. Once you’ll discover all the main landmarks, your guide will take you on a short cable ride to the top of the nearest mountain. Here you will get to experience Brașov from above and enjoy the beautiful landscape that surrounds it.
The second stop of the day is the beautiful town of Sighișoara, the only currently inhabited citadel in Europe and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
*You will be accommodated at an excellent rated 3*** guesthouse in Sighisoara with breakfast included.
Day 3:
You will start your day with a guided tour of the citadel discovering all of its main landmarks including the house in which Vlad The Impaler, or more commonly known as Dracula, was born.
Later on, you’ll explore another UNESCO World Heritage Site, the church in Viscri Village. Built in 1100, the gothic church is one of the most important Saxon fortified churches.
The tour ends in Bucharest where your guide will drop you at your hotel or any other place in the town of your choosing.
