3-Day Tour from Bucharest: Transylvania Villages & Medieval Towns
Overview
This is the original 3-day Transylvania itinerary we launched to show Romania’s incredible variety in limited time. Travel privately with your own guide and go where tour buses cannot go: Peleș Castle, Bran Castle, Brașov, UNESCO Viscri, and the UNESCO citadel of Sighișoara (with one night inside the walled old town, birthplace of Vlad the Impaler). The second night is in a remote countryside / Carpathian mountain area, so you experience both famous landmarks and the quieter, authentic side of Transylvania. Expect clear storytelling that separates Dracula myth from real history, plus a comfortable vehicle, flexible stops, and smooth logistics along the way. If you only have three days, this is the most complete Transylvania overview we can fit without turning it into a rushed checklist. Because we cover a lot in just 3 days, one day is naturally a bit longer, but the route is well balanced. A reasonable mobility level is needed (cobblestones, some stairs, short walks).
