Your Travel Experience with Finest Journeys
Wine Tasting and a Transylvanian Castle
Today, you will depart from Bucharest, and make your way to Brasov via private transfer with some stops along the way. After leaving Bucharest, you will make your way to Dealu Mare, a region renowned for producing some of Romania’s finest wines. With its rolling vineyards and favorable climate, it has long been a haven for winemakers. You will stop at Crama Ferdi, a boutique winery known for its small yet outstanding production. Here, you will enjoy a guided wine tasting, sampling exquisite selections paired with a carefully prepared lunch that highlights local flavors. Your journey continues into the heart of Transylvania, a region shrouded in legend and known for its striking scenery. Beyond the famous Dracula myth, it has drawn the admiration of King Charles, who first visited in 1998. His passion for this land led him to support conservation efforts, restoring historic farmhouses and working to preserve the charm of its rural villages. You will then stop in Sinaia, a picturesque mountain town often referred to as the “Pearl of the Carpathians.” Its most famous landmark, Peles Castle, stands as one of the most breathtaking royal residences in Europe. Built in 1875 as a summer retreat for Romania’s Hohenzollern royal family, the castle’s stunning architecture and opulent interiors offer a glimpse into the country’s regal past. Finally, arrive in Brasov for your overnight stay.
