1. Bran Castle / Dracula’s Castle 2. Sighisoara Citadel Private Tour 3. Overnight in Sibiu

Bran Castle (Dracula’s Castle) - Bran Castle, between myth and history…

Because Bram Stoker’s fictional portrayal of Dracula’s castle matches Bran so closely, it is widely believed that he used descriptions of it to create the fictitious home of Count Dracula.

Outside the castle, you’ll have the opportunity to try a variety of traditional foods: handmade cheeses, pálinka (plum and pear brandy), and traditionally-produced ham and sausages.

Sighisoara Clock Tower - The multicolored-tiled roof of Sighişoara’s Clock Tower glitters like the scales of a dragon. Built in the 14th century and expanded 200 years later, it remains the prettiest sight in town, offering a magnificent panorama from the top. The views are as compelling a reason to visit as the museum inside, which houses a collection of Roman vessels, scythes, tombstones, and a scale model of the fortified town (English-language explanations vary).

1. Sibiu City Tour 2. Sibiu Orthodox Cathedral 3. Evangelical Cathedral in Sibiu 4. Overnight in Hunedoara

1. Densus Temple 2. Corvin’s Castle 3. Bigar Waterfall 4. Overnight in Drobeta Turnu Severin

Densus Church - The next architectural piece is one of the oldest Orthodox churches in Romania. This historical monument was built on top of the ruins of a building dating back to the 4th century and was constructed in several stages, with the final changes made in the 13th century. You will marvel at the mixture of styles that have blended over the centuries in this ancient “temple,” which has also been proposed to join the UNESCO Heritage list of historical sites.

Nicolae Iorga, the greatest Romanian historian, has deemed the Saint Nicolae Church in Densus “unparalleled in the entire Romanian tradition.”

Here you can admire mural paintings dating back to 1443, inside an ingenious construction that has strived to preserve its history throughout each stage.

There is more to see than to be told, so we will let you discover the details yourself.

Castelul Corvinilor - This private trip to Romania gives you the opportunity to experience what medieval life was like in Romania during the time of knighthood, castles, and fortresses with a visit to The Corvin/Hunyadi Castle, one of the top 10 most beautiful Gothic castles in the world.

This architectural masterpiece is one of the largest castles in Europe and one of the seven wonders of Romania. It has served a dual purpose since the 15th century. After a devastating fire, the castle underwent extensive restoration and is now open to the public as a museum.

A small tip: the defense towers are a great spot to take a selfie.

Bigar Cascade Falls - The miracle from the Minis Canyon…

Words fall short when it comes to describing the untamed, primordial splendor of the breathtaking Bigar Waterfall and its surroundings, resembling the Garden of Eden.

It is not surprising that it was voted the most beautiful waterfall in the world.

But do not take our word for it. Decide for yourself as you breathe in the fresh and invigorating air and watch the water seep onto the moss-covered rocks, creating a mesmerizing veil of translucent beauty.

1. Iron Gate River Cruise 2. Rock-Carved Statue of Decebal 3. Roman Ruins 4. Overnight in Drobeta Turnu Severin

Iron Gates - The adventure continues in an area inhabited for tens of thousands of years, where the Danube seems to boil due to currents.

The pretext of our trip here is both the Danube Gorge, breathtaking and some brave engineers and technicians who, under communist rule in 1960, began one of the most daring engineering works, known as the Iron Gates, which is worth admiring.

Statue of King Decebalus - Not everyone knows about the great King Decebalus and his acts of bravery, but his fearlessness and determination to protect his country have earned him this extraordinary monument carved out of a mountain cliff, 128 meters above the restless Danube and the Kazan Gorge.

Near the city of Orsova, where the Danube reaches 120 meters in depth and starts to whirl and tremble as if boiling, the amazing masterpiece that took 10 years to build dominates the rocky scenery, as a testament to the thousands of years of Romanian history on these lands.

This is also the place where scientists have uncovered some of the earliest traces of human life, estimated to be over 35,000 years old. Here you can also find commemorative plaques from ancient Roman times, such as the Tabula Trajana.

Imagine how impressed your friends would be to see a picture of you with Decebalus’ stone-carved head in the background?

Discover what other treasures you can uncover during your Romanian experience in Targu Jiu.

The Gate Of The Kiss - Even if you do not have a passion for sculptural masterpieces, a Brancusi exhibit is a must-see for anyone visiting Romania. The Constantin Brancusi Sculptural Ensemble in Targu Jiu, also known as the “Calea Eroilor” Memorial (Heroes’ Way), is more than a beautiful display of stone and wood craftsmanship; it is a symbol of the Romanian spirit.

Horezu Monastery (Hurezi Monastery) - Considered one of the most beautiful and refined Orthodox monasteries, the Horezu Monastery, with its 100% authentic Romanian architecture, was included in the UNESCO World Heritage from the very beginning, with no sign that anything could ever surpass it.

Your private trip to Romania should include, among other things, the most visited Romanian monasteries, including the Horezu Monastery, because this is where you can see the highly acclaimed Horezu ceramics, as well as the gorges carved in the mountain walls and the famous stone caves.

Polovragi Cave - The cave is located at the foothills of the Carpathian Mountains, in the Oltet Gorges, not far from Transalpina (Romania’s highest alpine road), near Horezu.

It is a long cave, over 9 km (of which 0.9 km is electrified), with the main gallery mostly horizontal and some sideways galleries.

Along the gallery, there are three distinct sectors: the Pillar Gallery, and two little side galleries (the Suffocated Gallery, and the important one - Bats Gallery).
