Description

Explore Transylvania on a day trip from Bucharest. Visit Peles Castle, the medieval city of Brasov, the legendary Bran Castle, and the stunning Cantacuzino Castle.
Embark on a day trip through the Carpathian Mountains, designed to showcase Romania's most iconic legends and royal heritage. Sit back and enjoy the scenic drive as we navigate toward Transylvania.

First Stop: The Royal Estate of Sinaia We arrive in Sinaia, the "Pearl of the Carpathians," to admire Peles Castle. Known as a Neo-Renaissance masterpiece, this former royal residence creates a perfect backdrop for photos with its fairy-tale turrets and ornate facade. You will have the opportunity to hear the royal history from your guide and enjoy free time to explore the castle grounds or purchase tickets to visit the lavish interior, famous for its Gustav Klimt frescoes and intricate woodwork.

Medieval Charm: Brasov City Tour Next, we venture into the heart of Transylvania to the medieval city of Brasov. Founded by the Teutonic Knights, this city blends history with modern life. Your guide will lead a walking tour through the Council Square (Piata Sfatului) and around the imposing Black Church (exterior view), the largest Gothic structure between Vienna and Istanbul, revealing stories hidden within the ancient walls.

The Legend: Bran Castle (Dracula's Castle) No trip is complete without the legendary Bran Castle. Perched dramatically on a rock, this fortress is the source of the Count Dracula myth. Here, you will have time to discover the castle's strategic importance and separate fact from fiction. Guests can choose to enter the castle (skip-the-line assistance provided) to explore its labyrinthine corridors and secret staircases, or admire the imposing structure from the royal park below.

  • Discover the Neo-Renaissance Peles Castle, a former royal residence
  • Explore the medieval city of Brasov and its Gothic Black Church
