Dracula's Castle & Peles Palace Tour from Bucharest Including Brasov Old Town
Overview
Mountains, castles and legends! - the perfect combination for a full day out!
From magnificent city landmarks to mysterious ruins, Romania is bursting with fascinating palaces and castles to visit.
In the morning, after a short drive from Bucharest, we'll explore a majestic palace, set amongst landscapes that will take your breath away: Peles Palace in Sinaia, the former summer residence of the Romanian royal family. One of the most innovative, modern and beautiful residences of an European royal family at the end of the 19th century, Peles Palace still has the power to astonish the thousands of tourists who visit the site every day.
From Sinaia to Bran, the drive alone will prove to be spectacular, as you climb the windy mountain roads.
Next is Dracula's Castle, featuring towering spires, thick stone walls and a dramatic setting atop a 60 meters high rock
Later visit Brasov, one of the seven walled cities of Transylvania.
Late in the evening return to Bucharest.
