This private one day tour from Bucharest is a wonderful occasion to visit three of the most important castles in Romania. Located at the foothills of the Carpathians, all three castles are part of the legacy of two families who changed the history of Romania.
The itinerary
Estimated departure time from Bucharest: 7:30 am
First stop: Peles Castle/Location: Sinaia
A former royal castle and a summer residence of the royal family of Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen who ruled Romania until 1947, Peles Castle is considered to be one of the most beautiful castles in Europe. It is also one of the most visited in Romania. This fairy tale castle was built between 1873 and 1914 by the most famous architects of the time, using the finest materials. Visit at Pelisor Castle, the smaller, yet gorgeous residence of Queen Maria and King Ferdinand. The castle still bears the influence of Queen Maria's exquisite taste.
Lunch at own expense after the visit.
Second stop: Cantacuzino Castle/Location: Busteni
Built at the beginning of the 20th century by the richest Romanian of the time, Cantacuzino Castle is one of the best examples of the Neo-Romanian architectural style. The castle has a unique heraldic collection and a splendid panoramic view over the Carpathians.
Third stop: Bran Castle/Location: Bran
The most famous monument in Romania, Bran Castle is actually a strong and impressive 14th-century fortress that became a legendary attraction given its imaginary connections to the myth of Dracula.
The fortress of Bran was one of the most important from the border of Transylvania and Southern Romania, separate entities until the Great Union of 1918. A Bran Castle tour is a great occasion to discover the real and impressive story of this world-famous attraction.
Drive back to Bucharest. At the end of the tour, you will be dropped off at your hotel.
