Arrive in Romania’s capital, where French flair meets Eastern charm. Meet your Travel Director and fellow explorers before taking a short orientation tour past Revolution Square, the Athenaeum, and the grand boulevards that earned Bucharest the nickname “Little Paris.”
Join a guided tour of Bucharest, including the monumental Palace of Parliament — one of the largest buildings in the world. Wander through the Old Town’s cobbled lanes and admire the city’s striking contrasts between past and present. Enjoy the afternoon at leisure to discover its vibrant cafés or museums.
Leave Bucharest and head into the scenic Carpathian Mountains. Visit the fairy-tale Peleș Castle in Sinaia, a masterpiece of neo-Renaissance architecture once home to Romanian royalty. Continue to the fortified village of Hărman before arriving in Brașov, one of Transylvania’s most picturesque towns.
This morning, step into legend with a visit to Bran Castle — forever linked with the Dracula myth. Later, join a guided walk through Brașov’s medieval center, from the Black Church to Council Square, surrounded by colorful baroque buildings. Enjoy your evening at leisure — perhaps with hearty Transylvanian fare at a local tavern.
Journey deeper into Transylvania to explore the UNESCO-listed citadel of Sighișoara, birthplace of Vlad the Impaler. See the famous Clock Tower and the steep Covered Staircase before continuing to Sibiu, one of Europe’s most charming medieval cities.
Visit Corvin Castle, a Gothic-Renaissance marvel and one of Romania’s most impressive fortresses. Continue west to Timișoara, a city of pastel façades and open squares — the “Little Vienna” of the Banat region — where revolutions began and art still flourishes.
Cross the border into Hungary as the scenery opens to the vast plains of the countryside. Arrive in Budapest, the pearl of the Danube, and take in its grand architecture and riverside beauty on an evening orientation drive.
Discover the best of Budapest on a guided tour including the Parliament Building, Fisherman’s Bastion, Matthias Church, and the Castle District. Spend the afternoon exploring at your own pace — take a river cruise, visit a spa bath, or unwind with coffee and cake in one of the city’s famous cafés.
Your journey through Romania and Hungary comes to an end this morning. Say farewell to your Travel Director and fellow travelers before your airport transfer.
