Classic Romania Tour

Start & end in Bucharest 8 days Up to 7

About this trip

Eight days across Romania, taking in the castles, medieval towns and countryside that give Transylvania and Maramures their reputation. This is a guided coach tour, so someone else handles the driving and route while you focus on the sights.

You will move between Bucharest and the regions of Transylvania and Maramures, stopping at well-known landmarks like Bran Castle, Peles Castle and the old town of Sighisoara along the way.

What you'll do

  • Visit Bran Castle, long linked to the Dracula legend
  • Tour the royal interiors of Peles Castle
  • Wander the medieval streets of Sighisoara
  • Explore the rural villages and traditions of Maramures
  • Spend time in the capital, Bucharest
Good to know
  • Fully guided by coach, so the itinerary and pace are set for you
  • Requires a minimum of two participants — solo travellers should enquire before booking, as a solo spot may not always be confirmed
What travellers actually say

Worth it if you value knowledgeable guides and authentic experiences. Think twice if you're budget-conscious or dislike early, full-on itineraries.

  • Tour guides (Marcel, George, Traian, Tavi) consistently deliver deep historical knowledge, local restaurant recommendations, and genuine warmth.
  • Itineraries pack in sights daily with excellent transport, 4-star hotels in prime locations, and included experiences like horse-cart rides and traditional meals.
  • Romania's cost of living isn't cheap despite good value overall; food leans heavily meat and cured products if you're selective eater.
  • Weather unpredictable in shoulder seasons; April brought snow-capped mountains and no rain, but October freezing required guide to lend coat.
