Know More about this tour


Your first stop is Rșnov, an old medieval town that hosts at the top of a hill Transylvania’s best preserved citadel. Rșnov citadel is situated on the top of a hill overlooking Rasnov, and it was built in the 14th century by the Teutonic Knights, controlling the entry to Transylvania. From the top, you will enjoy a view over the city and its rural surroundings and mellow landscapes.
Next, you will visit the main attraction: Bran Castle. Built in the 14th century as a military fortress protecting Transylvania, Bran is a medieval castle that will impress you with its gloomy atmosphere and its bloody stories of Vlad the Impaler. This is where Bram Stoker got his inspiration for his novel, Dracula. Your guide will tell you the history, stories and legacy surrounding the castle.
After a little relaxation and perhaps – why not? – a cup of tea with rum, as is the tradition in Transylvania, you will return to Bucharest, where your guide will drop you off at your hotel.

    Il viaggio di un giorno da Bucarest, il 5 castello più bello d'Europa, ben tenuto, sorvegliato, organizzato. Dentro è rimasto intatto, gli arredi e tutto il resto. Oro a profusione ma anche marmi e lampadari pregiati, specchi e mobili tenuti molto bene e grande pulizia. Un patrimonio di arredi, alcune riproduzioni (quadri del Canaletto) ma anche pezzi autentici come le ceramiche invetriate dei fratelli Della Robbia. Attenti alle foto, vogliono 35 Lei, moneta romena. La cornice dei Monti Carpazi in Transilvania e il bosco rendono la visita molto piacevole. Provate.
