A full-day guided tour from Bucharest with a small group tour almost sounds too perfect. Head out towards Transylvania and enjoy a very picturesque route through the Carpathian Mountains. The first stop is the Peleş Royal Castle, the former residence of the Romanian Royal Family. Enjoy a guided tour through this Neo-Renaissance castle, also known as Romania's most visited castle. You'll continue your scenic drive through the Carpathian Mountains that'll take you to the mysterious Bran Castle, most popularly known for being Dracula's Castle! You'll be showered with intriguing intel about each castle from your tour guide. Feel free to shoot questions you may have about either castle to your guide.
Before heading back to Bucharest, you'll enjoy some spare time in Braşov, a medieval Romanian city with much cultural and historical charm. A short walking tour through the Old Town is a must, where you'll learn about the Saxons in Transylvania, gaze at well-preserved old-time architecture, notice iconic city landmarks (like the Black Church), and discover famous streets (like the Rope Street- Europe's second narrowest street)! You're in for a real treat!
