Day 1: Depart Frankfurt on a morning flight and join us for an unforgettable experience in Romania. After arriving in Bucharest, we board our modern coach and travel deep into Transylvania, to Brasov, located 160km from Bucharest and surrounded like a halo by the Carpathian Mountains. Check in at the modern hotel in Brasov. In the evening, a festive dinner and folklore show will be a great setting for a first impression of what this country has in store for us.
Day 2: You may not awake to the howling of wolves, but after breakfast a mysterious and fascinating country awaits you. A guided city tour shows you the highlights of Brasov, one of three major centers of Transylvania established in Vlad’s time. It was in Brasov that Vlad enjoyed his meals while hundreds of villagers died on stakes at the base of Timpa Hill. Enjoy free time until we continue to Bran Castle, “Dracula’s Castle,” originally built as a stronghold by the Knights of the Teutonic Order in 1212.
Vlad Tepes, the Impaler, used Bran Castle as headquarters for his incursions into Transylvania. Bran is home to a rich collection of Romanian and foreign furniture and art items from the 14th-19th centuries. Transfer to the Hotel in Sibiu. To round out the day, we will visit a regional mountain farmer’s lodge where we will savor a very typical Romanian meal, almost in his parlor. And after a little digestive help in the form of a local “Schnaps”, the host usually gets out his guitar and sings with the visitors.
Day 3: After a hearty breakfast we start on our walking tour through Sibiu. Sibiu’s Old Town retains the grandeur of its earlier days when rich and powerful guilds dominated regional trade. The Goldsmiths Square (Piata Aurarilor) is pockmarked with medieval windows, doorways and turrets and is connected to the Small Square through a stairway of astonishing beauty. Afterwards we set out to Sighisoara. The town is located in the Romanian wine region and was named in Bram Stoker’s novel “Dracula”.
After arriving in Sighisoara we first visit the hill top Monastery, one of the town’s most important landmarks. Afterwards we tour the birth house of famous Vlad the Impaler, who was born in the 15th century in one of the more stately houses. Check in to the hotel for the night before heading out for an unforgettable Halloween dinner at the rustic and traditional restaurant “Dracula” in town. Get some sleep in advance, because you’ll be up late howling at the moon. Bring your favorite Halloween costume so you are not an easy target for those creatures roaming by night.
Day 4: After checkout and breakfast, we drive into Bucharest (5hrs). After a short tour of the city of Bucharest, we visit the Eastern Orthodox Patriarch’s Church (entrance included) and afterwards visit the Palace of Parliament (from the outside), one of the most famous buildings in Romania and known universally as Casa Poporului - The House of the People. The palace was built during the darkest days of the Ceausescu’s regime and is the second biggest administrative building in the world! We check in to our Hotel and the afternoon is for you to explore before dinner is served in our down town Hotel.
Day 5: After a last breakfast in Bucharest our transfer to the airport awaits you and it is time to say goodbye to the land of Dracula.
