A 2-day private escape from Bucharest into the heart of medieval Transylvania
🧭 Why Choose This Tour?
🗺️ 2-Day Itinerary
Your guide picks you up from your hotel in Bucharest early in the morning. After a scenic drive through the Southern Carpathians, your first stop is the magnificent Corvin Castle in Hunedoara — one of the largest and most impressive Gothic castles in Europe. Explore its tall towers, suspension bridge, secret rooms, and learn about the legends of Vlad the Impaler who was once imprisoned here.
After the castle visit, continue to Sibiu where you'll check into your hotel. In the evening, enjoy a leisurely stroll through Sibiu's atmospheric old town — the Great Square, the Council Tower, and the charming cafés along the cobblestone streets.
After breakfast, start your day with a guided walking tour of Sibiu. Discover the Council Tower with its panoramic views, the Brukenthal Museum in its beautiful Baroque palace, the Gothic Evangelical Cathedral, the famous Liar's Bridge, the Great Square and the Small Square framed by colorful houses.
Before heading back to Bucharest, stop in Cisnădie to visit its fortified church — a defensive structure with thick walls and four corner towers, typical of Transylvania's Saxon heritage. After a 4.5-hour drive, your guide drops you off at your hotel in Bucharest.
