The medieval Transylvania tour is the perfect opportunity to explore the Romanian city of Bucharest and its rich multicultural heritage. Bucharest is a city steeped in medieval monuments and landmarks, making it both exotically beautiful and charmingly spooky at once.
The Medieval Transylvania Tour through Uncover Romania offers a fantastic itinerary that travels through scenic medieval cities and Saxon villages. You’ll discover the striking architecture of the churches, stroll through isolated towns and discover all of the famous historical monuments Transylvania is hiding.
Destinations include churches on the UNESCO World Heritage sites list, along with the fairytale-esque Corvin Castle, one of the seven wonders of Romania. You’ll also visit historical wonders like the Denus Church and Rupea Fortress, the Rasnov Fortress and Sibiu, the European Capital of Culture and one of the seven medieval citadels.
A true highlight of the trip is the crossing of the Transfagarasan, a scenic mountain road that is more than 55 miles long and ascends above 2,000 meters, offering some of the most breathtaking views of the Carpathians you’ll find in Romania. After a couple of days discovering the medieval cities of Sighisoara and Brasov, you’ll make your way back to Bucharest where you’re free to walk the city.
Uncover Romania offers some of the most thorough, professionally guided tours in the country and is a great option for anyone looking to explore medieval Transylvania. Prices vary depending on the size of your group. Check out the website for more details on the itinerary and ways to book.
