Journey Through Time: Romania's Royal Legacy and Wine Heritage

Embark on a journey from bustling Bucharest that plunges you into Romania's rich history and distinct culinary tradition. Begin at the breathtaking Peles Castle, a shining beacon of German Renaissance design. Constructed over 40 years for King Charles I, it was the first castle fully powered by local electricity. The tour guides you through the grand hall, reception rooms, and dining hall, each nook pulsating with tales of Romanian royalty.

Next, the tranquil Sinaia Monastery welcomes you, its Byzantine architecture a silent testament to centuries of spiritual devotion. Founded by Prince Mihail Cantacuzino after a pilgrimage to Mount Sinai, the monastery's peaceful gardens offer a respite from the outside world.

Built for Prince Gheorghe Grigore Cantacuzino, nicknamed 'The Nabob' for his immense wealth, this castle is a captivating blend of history and beauty. Here, be treated to an exclusive wine tasting on a terrace hailed as one of Romania's most Instagrammable spots.
