- Meet your tour guide upon arrival and start your guided tour with a visit to the following attractions:
- Sinaia Monastery
- If you are planning to visit Romania, you should see the most beautiful mountain resort, a place where many kings and essential figures come 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 tranquillity, bestowed upon you by the divine spirit, where even time has stopped to enjoy it. The orthodox establishment is over 300 years old. It is dubbed “the Cathedral of the Carpathians” due to its positioning in Romania's most beautiful mountain resort, surrounded by stunning 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.
- Peles Castle
- Suppose you have decided to write your memoirs or brag about seeing the most beautiful castles in Europe. In that case, the Romanian royal family’s summer residence is, by far, one of the most important tourist attractions in Romania Europe, and you will soon understand why. Every year, thousands of essential 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. You have the chance to see the “crown jewel” of the Carpathians and have an unforgettable travelling experience in this historical castle that took 41 years to build (1873-1914).
- Bran/ Dracula’s Castle
- 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 to forget about Bram Stoker’s fiction. Once you see it in person, you will understand why this castle symbolises Romanian tourism and why it is the most visited tourist attraction in Romania.

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. Guarantee that the Brasov tour will be the high point of your trip –literally.
