Royal Elegance at Peles Castle
Your adventure begins with a drive to Sinaia, the “Pearl of the Carpathians.” Here, you will visit Peles Castle, a masterpiece of German Neo-Renaissance architecture. As you walk through its opulent rooms, you’ll learn about the Romanian Royal family and admire the intricate woodcarvings, stained glass, and vast armoury. It is widely considered one of the most beautiful palaces in Europe.
The Mystery of Bran (Dracula's) Castle
Next, we head to the village of Bran for the highlight of the day: Bran Castle. Perched atop a high rock, this fortress is world-famous as Dracula’s Castle. Your guide will help you separate fact from fiction, explaining the history of the castle as a royal residence and its legendary ties to Vlad the Impaler and Bram Stoker’s myth.
Medieval Charm in Brasov
The final stop is the vibrant city of Brasov. Nestled at the foot of the mountains, this medieval gem boasts a rich history. Your guide will lead you through the Old Town, where you’ll see the Black Church (the largest Gothic church in Romania), the Council Square, and the narrow Rope Street.
