Itinerary and highlights
We visit Peles Castle from Sinaia, considered the most beautiful castle in Romania. The former summer residence of the Romanian Royal Family, built 1875-1883, finalized 1914. We will also visit the gardens of Peles Castle and we will take a look at Pelisor Castle nearby. We can have a quick coffee/tea stop at a very charming terrace in the area, with a great view towards Peles Castle!
Bran Castle - a national monument and landmark in Romania. The fortress is situated on the border between Transylvania and Wallachia. Commonly known as "Dracula's Castle". Built late 1300s. We will discuss about the actual history of the place, about the myths, too.
OR:
Prejmer Fortress instead of Bran Castle - much larger, more interesting, no big crowds, no traffic jams, entrance fee 25% of the price of the entrance at Bran Castle, authentic souvenirs, etc.
Prejmer Fortress is the largest and best preserved Medieval Fortress in Eastern Europe, a UNESCO World Heritage site.
We can discuss prior to the tour or during the tour if we visit Bran Castle (West of Brasov) or Prejmer Fortress (East of Brasov), as usually there is no time during a one day tour to cover both of them plus Sinaia and Brasov.
The Old City Council Square of Brasov, the Black Church, the Rope Street (the narrowest street in Romania). The Black Church is the largest church in Eastern Europe.
