Overview

We begin our day with Peleș Castle, here you will experience a guided tour led by an official historian. Gain deep insights into the Neo-Renaissance architecture and the fascinating lives of the Romanian monarchy as you explore one of the most stunning palaces in Europe.

Next, we cross the border into Transylvania to visit the world-famous Bran Castle. Before you enter, our private guide will provide a comprehensive briefing, sharing the historical truths of Vlad the Impaler versus the myths of Dracula. Once inside, you are free to explore the secret staircases and towers at your own rhythm, ensuring you capture every photo and detail without feeling rushed.

Our final stop is the crown jewel of Transylvania —Brașov City. You’ll enjoy a relaxing stroll through the historic Old Town. Admire the towering Black Church, wander across Council Square, and soak in the vibrant atmosphere of the cobblestone streets tucked beneath the Hollywood-style "Brasov" sign on Mount Tâmpa.
