Program details

Depart from your hotel and drive north out of Bucharest to the Romanian Carpathians, through the scenic Prahova Valley. Reach Sinaia Resort for a nice refreshment stop at the Palace Hotel, followed by a maximum of 30 minutes of free time in the park of the 1913 Sinaia Casino. Proceed then over the Carpathians to the small village of Bran, the location of the castle that apparently inspired Bram Stoker, author of the novel “Dracula”.

Visit the ominous Bran Castle and be a part of the Dracula legend. See this true fortress, so well located and defended, that no one managed to conquer it in its 630 years of existence. You will then have free time for shopping at the foot of the castle, in a nice local market, with all sorts of souvenirs and traditional products. Lunch will be served in the village of Bran, at one of the best restaurants in the area. You’ll be transferred then to the city of Brasov, one of the best preserved Saxon cities in Transylvania.

You’ll be given around 1 hour to see the central square and take photographs – the History Museum, the Black Church, the Council Square & the pedestrian street – free-time. Return then to Bucharest, with one comfort stop on the way. End of tour.
