1. Did you know that Arges city was the first capital of Romania? Everyone knows that truly good, beautiful and durable things come only through sacrifice, which will become apparent when you reach the old town of Curtea de Arges. With a rich and eventful history, this is where you get to see the ruins of the Wallachian princely court, the 13th century Royal Church, as well the famous Arges Monastery, an important historical monument with an interesting, yet sad story, story that your private guide will share with you!

2. If we were to put together a tour of the castles in Romania for Dracula fans and adventure lovers, Poenari Castle would have to be on the list, being an important Romanian tourist attraction. With this private trip you will have the perfect chance to discover the wildlife in Transylvania. For the moment the Fortress is under restauration, so we will not go to visit, we will just take some pictures of it!

About Bucarest

Boulevards belle époque, églises orthodoxes et monuments communistes autour d'une vieille ville animée : Bucarest, capitale de la Roumanie.

Le vaste Palais du Parlement, l'un des plus grands bâtiments administratifs du monde, domine le centre comme un héritage frappant de l'ère Ceaușescu. La Calea Victoriei, la grande avenue, passe devant la salle de concert à dôme de l'Athénée roumain, l'ancien Palais royal qui abrite le Musée national d'art, et la place de la Révolution, où se sont déroulés les événements de 1989.
