Overview

Do you like tales, legends and travel? You can have it all in only one day trip from Bucharest. A walk in the past from one castle to another, where legends and true stories blend.
Bran Castle, also known as the residence of the legendary Prince of Darkness, Dracula is a medieval fortification, a real landmark for our country.
Cantacuzino Castle has a great architectural, historical, documentary and artistic value. And it's also known as The Nevermore Academy, being the set for the Netflix show Wednesday.
The road itself to reach the place is a beautiful experience, sliding through the Carpathian mountains, Romanian plains and the oil fields.
One last stop before heading back to Bucharest will be at the Snagov Lake. The grave of Vlad the Impaler (a.k.a. Dracula), was discovered in the Monastery Snagov.

What to expect

  1. Bran Castle
    4h · Admission ticket not included
    Bran Castle is one of the most famous landmarks in Transylvania, and is known as the home of Count Dracula. The 13th-century hillside castle and fortress, however, actually houses a collection of furniture and artworks that once belonged to Marie, the beloved queen of Romania. Tour the eerie castle and decide for yourself what's fact or fiction.
  2. Cantacuzino Castle
    3h · Admission ticket not included
    The filming location of the Netflix series 'Wednesday', Cantacuzino Castle is the legacy of a Great Byzantine Family. Built in an authentic architectural style, Cantacuzino Castle rises in front of the Bucegi Mountains, offering one of the most spectacular views in Romania.

    The richly decorated castle and its park offers an unforgettable experience, being one of the most popular tourist attractions in the entire area.

    The castle is the reflection of the taste and ambitions of its owner, Gheorghe Grigore Cantacuzino, the richest man in Romania in the early 20th century.
  3. Snagov Monastery
    3h · Admission ticket not included
    On the way back to Bucharest, passing the oil fields we have one more short stop on the shore of the biggest natural lake of Romania, Snagov. The only island of the lake is the burial ground of the one who inspired the legend of Dracula, Vlad the Impaler, Governor of the medieval principality of Wallachia. The monastery itself has 800 years of history.
