Day 1 : Sinaia
Location: Sinaia, Bran, Brasov

Sinaia Monastery, Peles Castle, Dracula's Castle, Brasov Old Town
In your private tour in Romania, you will visit the most beautiful mountain resort, a place where many kings and important figures came to unwind and reflect, Sinaia Monastery is where you have the chance to escape reality and taste the simplicity and richness of orthodox spirituality, beautifully expressed in the artistic representations of this house of worship.

As soon as you pass the massive door of this fortified monastery, you will step into a place of absolute peace and tranquility, bestowed upon by the divine spirit, where even time has stopped to enjoy it. With the help of your private guide you will have the chance to better understand the history of Romania.

The orthodox establishment is over 300 years old and it is dubbed as “the Cathedral of the Carpathians” due to its positioning in the most beautiful mountain resort in Romania surrounded by a stunning mountain scenery. It was also the first construction in this territory, founded by Prince (Spatarul) Mihai Cantacuzino. He decided to erect the house of worship following a pilgrimage to the Holy Land, with its name inspired by Mount Sinai. Sinaia Monastery is one of the oldest monastery in Romania.
If you have decided to write your memoirs or you want to brag about having seen the most beautiful castles in Europe, the Romanian royal family’s summer residence is, by far, one of the most important tourist attractions in Romania and in Europe, and you will soon understand why.

Every year, thousands of important figures and hundreds of thousands of tourists book tours of Romania for this attraction alone, to admire its beauty and at least for a few hours, feel like royalty
We Romanians are often amused that 80% of the hundreds of thousands of tourists that book Tours of Romania and come from across the globe to see the Castle of Dracula, or more accurately, the Bran Castle, leave with their history lesson learned and forget about Bram Stoker’s fiction.

Once you see it in person, you will understand why this castle is one of the most expensive venues in the world and why it has become a symbol of Romanian tourism as the most visited tourist attraction in Romania.
Are you looking for a different urban experience through which you can explore history, culture, and rediscover the beauty of nature, all at the same time? The city of Brasov is the ideal destination for lovers of history, music and culture, adventure, good food, winter sports, hunting, hiking, and even romance. It is the quintessential mountain adventure.

We guarantee that the Brasov tour will be the highpoint of your trip –literally. Even though its average altitude is 625 meters, because its structure includes the Postavaru Peak, it is the highest city in Romania. What makes this tourist destination worth a sport in the Guinness Book of Records is that Brasov is the only city in the world that contains a natural reservation, the one on mount Tampa.
Overnight in Sighisoara 3 stars Hotel B&B included

Day 2 : Sighisoara
Location: Sighisoara, Biertan, Sibiu, Caciulata

Sighisoara, Biertan, Sibiu
If you want to go back in time and catch a glimpse of what life was like in the Middle Ages, you absolutely have to visit Sighisoara, Romania’s medieval town, and Count Dracula’s (actually, Vlad the Impaler) place of birth.

Built in 1280, the Sighisoara Citadel is not just one of the most visited tourist attractions in Romania, it is a living, breathing medieval fortress, since it has remained inhabited for over 700 years – which is quite rare.

In fact, after just a few steps on the cobblestone streets, past the gates and massive stone walls that reach as high as 14 meters, you will know you are in one the most well-preserved medieval towns in Europe. For this reason, it is not surprising the Romanian citadel was included on the UNESCO World Heritage list of historical and cultural landmarks.
he Biertan Fortified Church, one of the first Transylvanian Saxon settlements in Ardeal, is a historical monument of breathtaking beauty, recognized by the UNESCO World Heritage Centre.

Hundreds and thousands of tourists come here every year to find out why in three hundred years there has been only one divorce and to see the two other things that make this place unique.

The Biertan Fortified Church, located in a small town that dates back to 1224, impresses through its stunning scenery and its particular construction – built on a hillock in the center of town, surrounded by three defensive walls and 7 bastions.
A city tour to help you understand why Sibiu was elected as the European Capital of Culture, it includes the Evangelical Cathedral, the Sibiu Old City Center and the town itself, which are among the most visited tourist attractions in Romania, because they cater to every taste and provide a wonderful travelling experience for even the pickiest of tourists.

If you love authentic cultural experiences, whether you are more romantic or more adventurous, here you will find everything you need to relax and enjoy yourself, leave the stress of your everyday life behind, and have a fun and memorable trip.
If you catch a tour of the Romanian monasteries and you reach the Cozia Monastery you will understand why thousands of tourists are eager to see it.Guarded for over 600 years, on one side by the Olt river, on the other by mount Cozia, the fortified walls of this ancient monastery that have protected us from invaders in the past seem to preserve the Garden of Eden, a place of mystery and mythical beauty…

Find out more about this historical monument, about the monastery’s “living water” spring, and much more. In a two days trip, you will see the most important romanian monasteries, two of the most visited castles: Peles and Bran and four amazing cities.

Nicolas is a 5-star-plus guide!...

09-Oct-2023

Nicolas is a 5-star-plus guide! Highly recommended! Whatever time period you are interested in, ancient, recent history, or modern times, Nicolas can take you on the journey. He has a gifted way to explain situations in a contextual and approachable way, sprinkled with some humor. He also took us a bit off the beaten path, showing neighbourhoods and giving us a "taste" of Romania, quite literally (Omnomnom)! Recommended for the Bucharest city tour, and he also does tours in the rest of Romania! Thanks for a great tour Nicolas!

Had a lovely afternoon with Nicolas! We spend the whole afternoon in Bucharest with him. He took us to the most interesting places and also to places off the beaten track. Especially loved that one! He showed us around by car which I was very happy to have. In the city i would highly recommend to use a car if you would like to see the town. Lovely afternoon with a very awesome and attentive guide. Thank you!
