Transylvania is the very known and legendary region of Romania and also home to some of the best preserved medieval towns in Europe, some relating to the legend of Dracula. Discover this enchanting region and the reality and myth of Dracula legend. Your personal guide will take you in a trip to the most important sights which had a role in Vlad The Impaler’s life and following of the Bram Stoker’s novel. Don’t miss the tours to Bran Castle, the birth place of Vlad the Impaler – Sighisoara and overnight at Dracula Castle Hotel in Borgo Pass.

Starting from Bucharest your private guide will take you in the Carpathians mountains to visit the true castle of Vlad Dracula – Poienari Castle which stands on a cliff in a great defensive location. Close by is the former Princely Court from Curtea de Arges.

We’ll continue on the route which cross the mountains offering great sceneries and we’ll arrive in Sibiu, a very important medieval city built at the end of 12th century. Enjoy the beauty of the Old District, the charming pedestrian streets and squares. Evangelical Cathedral, Bruckental Museum, towers and fortified wall are just few of the many important sights from Sibiu. In the 3rd day we’ll drive to see the most important castle from Romania – Hunyad’s Castle. Built in 15th century the castle was a property of John the Hunyad – the most important Transylvanian governor and then belonged to his son – Matei (Mathias) Corvinus one of the most important Hungarian kings. It’s the time when Vlad Dracula stayed as a hostage to this castle. We don’t want to ruin your visit but we must tell you that Hunyad’s Castle was recently declared to be one of the most haunted places from Europe.

Our Dracula Tour will continue to Alba Iulia, a city which has its origins back in the Roman Empire period. Then it became an important city in 16th – 18th century. Here can be admired the biggest citadel built in Vaubain style and the oldest cathedral from Romania built around the year 1000. Alba Iulia is also very important for Romanians history because here took place the Reunion of all Romanian provinces in a single country. The Union Museum and Reunion Cathedral remind us about those events.

Until this moment of our Dracula Tour you’ve already learned about the true history of Vlad the Impaler also called Vlad Dracula. Now is time to follow the trails of the Bram Stocker’s novel and we’ll go to Bistrita. You’ll have the chance to stop at Golden Crown Restaurant and Hotel where you can enjoy the lunch and to taste the “blood”, a special drink. In this hotel stayed Jonathan Harper waiting for the Count’s Dracula carriage to pick up him. From here we’ll go through the mountains and forests, through a wild scenery to Borgo Pass. Overnight in Dracula Castle Hotel. Enjoy your stay...

The last stop of our Dracula Tour in Transylvania will be the area of Brasov, one of the most important cities of Transylvania and Romania and maybe the biggest tourism center of Romania. It’s history starts in XIII century and the walls, towers and a lot of buildings from the medieval times are still preserved. In the surroundings of Brasov we’ll find the famous Bran Castle – also known as Dracula’s Castle, which is a beautiful medieval castle built in XIV century. Vlad the Impaler was in prison for a short period inside the castle. Rasnov Fortress and Peles Castle – the former royal residence and the Old District of Brasov are other highlights of the area.

We are very sure that you’ll enjoy our Dracula Tour so we are inviting you to join us.
