We make our escape for a half day from the busy streets of Bucharest. Unknown even to some people born and raised here there are some hidden gems just a few miles outside city limits.
Leaving Bucharest we travel to the Palace of Mogosoaia. A retreat made for the rulers of the Romanians, in a pure Romanian style called Brancovenesc. It is a quiet and majestic place where you will feel like going back in time.
Next, we take a short drive to the Snagov Monastery which is believed to be the resting place of the body of Vlad the Impaler, better known as Dracula. The monastery itself is on an island in the middle of the Snagov Lake offering great views over the surrounding area.

We enjoy this tour very much. Because it is private tour we were able to get more out of our tour. Our tour guide Teo Tat were very friendly. His company contacted us at the hotel for pick up time and ease our worry of what to proceed. Teo Tat offered us bottle of water and WIFI hooked up thank you Teo Tat! Teo Tat is very knowledgeble of his country and he imparted his knowledge to us with enthusiasm. Our tour start in the morning to Snagov Monastery and because it is in the morning we have had advantage of peace and quiet and able to enjoy our tour without fighting with crowd of people. Mogosoaia Palace were spectacular with awesome view of surrounding buildings. We definitely recommend this private tour to all. Thank you Viator and thank you Teo Tat!!!
