A complete Romania travel experience enables you to see the local life, culture, and diverse sightseeing attractions. Usually, visitors head to the capital Bucharest first and then navigate their way to other destinations during their trips to Romania. There are several direct flights to Bucharest available from Europe.
Beautiful Bucharest
On a round trip Romania tour from Bucharest, visitors can see the sights of this urban city. Architectural buildings, art museums and cultural experiences abound in the capital. The Parliament Palace and the Romanian Athenaeum are two of the must-see places of interest here. Along the way, you can stop at shopping boutiques and cafés. Food and drink at local bars/pubs and entertainment too are an integral part of any tour to the capital. You can also make a trip to the impressive wellness center Therme Bucharest located a short distance from the city for a rejuvenating time.
Terrific Transylvania
Any trip to Romania is incomplete without visiting one of its most famous tourist attractions –Transylvania. After all, vampires and mysterious castles make for an unbeatable combination. Many Romania travel packages offer a tour of the castles and places associated with this legend inspired by the Romanian prince Vlad the Impaler or Vlad Dracula. These include Bran Castle, the royal court in Targoviste, Bistrita, the Corvin castle–one of the most splendid castles in Romania, and the ruins of the Poenari Castle.
The Transylvania region has so much more to offer besides the Dracula factor. Visit the well-preserved medieval fortifications in various cities. Taking a walk down the streets here is like time-traveling into the medieval past. Among UNESCO World Heritage sites located here are the Dacian fortresses, the beautiful medieval city of Sighisoara with its amazing historic center, and the fortified churches in seven villages including Valea Viilor, Biertan, and Saschiz. You can get a flavor of local life in a rural setting while visiting these picturesque villages. On Romania tours, you can also explore the incredible Turda underground salt mine.
The breathtaking Carpathian Mountains and Danube Delta
If you are looking for stunning natural beauty and mesmerizing vistas when you travel to Romania, make a trip to places located near the Carpathian Mountains. The mountains are home to forests, gorges, lakes, and caves. Visit the Apuseni Mountains, a part of the Carpathians, to see the Scarisoara cave–a big glacier cave. Another superb attraction is the Peles Castle near Sinaia. You can also travel to the Bucovina region to take a look at the painted monasteries of Moldovita and Sucevita recognized as UNESCO World Heritage Sites. The exquisite frescoes that adorn the external walls of these monasteries make for a fabulous sight.
Another sightseeing attraction on a trip to Romania is the Danube Delta. The mighty Danube River that originates in Germany makes its way to Romania where it forms a delta before emptying into the Black Sea. It is a great place for birdwatching on a private boat trip. You can even go fishing here.
