🗺️ 2-Day Itinerary

Day 1

Bucharest → Corvin Castle → Sibiu

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.
