Activity itinerary

Peles Castle
  • 4h
Peleș Castle is a neo-Renaissance architectural masterpiece located in the Carpathian Mountains of Romania, near the town of Sinaia. Built between 1873 and 1914, it was commissioned by King Carol I of Romania as a summer residence. The castle is renowned for its picturesque setting amidst lush forests and its intricate design, blending Gothic, Baroque, and Renaissance styles with German influences. Peleș Castle has over 160 rooms, each decorated with lavish details, such as wood carvings, stained glass windows, and rich tapestries. Its interior features a mix of European and Oriental themes, showcasing valuable art collections, furniture, and weaponry from various parts of the world. The grand staircase, the Hall of Honor, and the library with secret doors are among the highlights. Surrounded by well-kept gardens, the castle offers stunning views of the surrounding mountains and is regarded as one of the most beautiful castles in Europe.
Bran Castle (Dracula's Castle)
  • 4h
Bran Castle, often referred to as "Dracula's Castle," is a historic fortress located in Romania, near the town of Bran, on the border between Transylvania and Wallachia. The castle is perched atop a rocky hill and surrounded by thick forests, giving it a dramatic and imposing appearance. Built in the 14th century, the castle served as a strategic defense point against invading forces, including the Ottoman Empire. The architecture of Bran Castle is a mix of medieval and Gothic styles, with its tall towers, narrow staircases, and labyrinth-like corridors. It has 57 rooms, including a secret passage that adds to its mysterious aura. Despite its popular association with Bram Stoker's fictional Dracula, there is no evidence that Vlad the Impaler, the historical figure who inspired the character, ever lived there.
Brasov Historical Center
  • 3h
Brasov, previously known as Kronstadt. Its well-kept historical center filled with centuries-old homes connected by small streets paved with cobblestone retains its German medieval charm. Your walking tour of this lovely town starts from the main square, which features the Gothic Black Church (BisericaNeagră ), old City Hall, watch towers, walls around the former citadel, and the narrowest street in Europe.
Black Church (Biserica Neagra)
  • 1h
Over 600 years old, the Black Church from Brasov is the most famous monument from this old Transylvanian town. This is the largest hall church east of Vienna and one of the biggest medieval churches in this part of Europe
