Day 1

1. PRIVATE TRIP TO CURTEA DE ARGES

Did you know that Curtea de Arges is unique for the important royal tombs it hides?

Everyone knows that truly good, beautiful and durable things come only through sacrifice, which will become apparent when you reach the old town of Curtea de Arges. With a rich and eventful history, this is where you get to see the ruins of the Wallachian princely court, the 13th century Royal Church, as well the famous Arges Monastery, an important historical monument with an interesting, yet sad story. According to legend, around 1512 master Manole and his 9 stonemasons were hired to build a great cathedral, but try as they might, whatever they built would fall apart by morning.

The solution came to Manole in a dream, and he had to sacrifice his wife Ana, by enclosing her inside the walls of the church, which was finished in 1517.

2. POENARI FORTRESS PRIVATE TRIP

If we were to put together a tour of the castles in Romania for Dracula fans and adventure lovers, Poenari Castle would have to be on the list, being an important Romanian tourist attraction, a piece of history and a bloody legend. Poenari Fortress is a ruined castle in Romania situated at a height of 860 meters known for the bound to Vlad the Impaler.

As you are climbing up the 1480 stairs that lead up to castle, you can rightfully say you are following in the steps of Dracula …

Imagine what the hydro technician and the rest of the crew felt when they took on the Vidraru Dam project and worked on building this huge reservoir in the heart of the mountains? The Vidraru Dam is one of the most spectacular tourist attractions in Romania, which draws in hundreds of thousands of tourists annually. A wonder of engineering, it offers a breathtaking view of the reservoir lake built on Arges River.

Discover amazing Transylvania – A city tour to help you understand why Sibiu was elected as the European Capital of Culture, it includes the Evangelical Cathedral, the Sibiu Old City Center and the town itself, which are among the most visited tourist attractions in Romania, because they cater to every taste and provide a wonderful travelling experience for even the pickiest of tourists.

If you love authentic cultural experiences, whether you are more romantic or more adventurous, here you will find everything you need to relax and enjoy yourself, leave the stress of your everyday life behind, and have a fun and memorable private trip.

2. PRIVATE TOUR TO HATEG AUROCHS RESERVATIONS

Since our coat of arms and heraldry in general prominently features the bison, it makes sense that Romania should be the home of several wildlife preserves, such as the European Bison Reserve in Hateg is one of the. This type of animal that in medieval times used to dominated the European woods, now is on the edge of extinction.

This might be the only chance you get to see these great herbivores that impress you through their sheer size, wildness and power in their natural habitat, as bison (or wisents) are an endangered species.

3. PRIVATE TRIP TO CORVIN/ HUNYADI CASTLE

This private trip to Romania gives you the opportunity to get a taste of what medieval life was like in Romania in the time of knighthood, castles and fortresses with a visit to The Corvin/Hunyadi Castle, one of the top 10 most beautiful gothic castles in the world.

This architectural masterpiece is one of the largest castles in Europe and one of the seven wonders of Romania, and it has served a double purpose since the 15th century. After a devastating fire, the castle underwent extensive restoration and is now open to the public as a museum.

A small tip: the defense towers are a great spot to take a selfie.

4. PRIVATE TOUR TO PRISLOP MONASTERY

If you have an interest in religion and history, you have probably heard about the pilgrimages to Prislop Monastery and the spiritual healing powers of this 400-year old orthodox settlement.

The blissful energy you find here stems from the church’s superb geographical location and the devoutness of the nuns always immersed in prayer.

The grounds are usually crawling with tourists and people who come to pay homage to the late Father Arsenie Boca, monk and abbot of the monastery, who was considered a saint even during his lifetime and is now pending canonization.

You will uncover more wonders once you reach the Prislop Monastery, where every visit is a soul cleansing experience.

5. DENSUS CHURCH

The next architectural piece is one of the oldest orthodox churches in Romania, this historical monument was built on top of the ruins of a building dating back to the 4th century, and it was constructed in several stages, the final changes having been made in the 13th century. You will marvel at the mixture of styles, which have blended over the centuries in this ancient “temple”, having also been proposed to join the UNESCO Heritage list of historical sites.

Nicolae Iorga, the greatest Romanian historian, has deemed the Saint Nicolae Church in Densus “unparalleled in the entire Romanian tradition”.

Here you can admire mural paintings dating back to 1443, inside an ingenious construction which has striven to preserve its history throughout each stage.

There is more to see than to be told, so we will let you discover the details yourself.

Day 3

1. ALBA IULIA CITY TOUR

2. TRANSALPINA ROAD

Visit Romania and you will see one of the most spectacular roads in the Carpathian Mountains .

Our adventure continues on the highest road in Romania, the Transalpina, said to have been built in Roman times, and later dubbed “The Devil’s Path”, possibly by the shepherds crossing it with their sheep during transhumance, from Marginimea Sibiului towards Wallachia.

Its highest point reaches 2145 m, from where you get an incredible panorama of the mountain scenery and a powerful, cleansing dose of fresh air.

3. POLOVRAGI CAVE

If you have been on expeditions in wet or dry caves before, you will be familiar with the haunting and eerily spiritual feeling you get once you enter the Polovragi Cave, which seems like it belongs to a different realm.

The warm and humid cave hosts many spectacular calcareous formations throughout the galleries that extend for over 10 km, of which only 800 m are open for visitation. Here you can see the Spring of Hope, the Bloody Vault, the White Room, the Divine Chamber, the Grim Reaper, the Dacian Oven, the King and Queen, Snow White and the Dwarf’s House.
