Overview of your Bucharest tour:

Very few real historical characters have seen such a spectacular development after his death as did Vlad the Impaler, the former ruler of Wallachia, the southern part of present-day Romania. The odious story of the blood-thirsty voivode has in time become the successful urban myth of Dracula, attracting thousands of tourists yearly ready to risk their own encounter with the fierce image of the past. The tour starts with us heading to the southern plains, towards the remnants of the princely court in Targoviste, then to Snagov Monastery, picturesquely placed on an island in a lake, to shelter better the possible remains of Vlad the Impaler Dracula, although it hasn't been clearly proven that his body rests there. Maybe we'll get our own answer about the mysterious fate of this true legend of times past, which I am going to reveal to you in full. Our tour ends with dropping tourists off in central Bucharest.

Your Bucharest tour itinerary

The tour starts from Brasov, from your hotel, then we leave Transylvania, heading for Wallachia, the southern historical part of Romania, where we admire the sights of the Carpathian Mountains in the picturesque winter resorts of Predeal, Azuga, Busteni and Sinaia, we head for Targoviste, the old capital of Wallachia, and we walk in the footsteps of Vlad the Impaler in his princely court. We finally reach Snagov Monastery, renowned for the connection to the dark myth of Count Dracula, based on the real medieval voivode Vlad the Impaler of Wallachia, something of a national hero for the Romanians, and of a sadistic imaginary beast for the foreigners. The church was built in the late 14th century on an island in the Snagov Lake, where legend has it that monks buried Vlad the Impaler Dracula's body, after being murdered by treason. Heading south, we move on to Bucharest.
