Summary

Your tour begins with pickup from your Bucharest hotel, where you’ll board a minivan destined for the Olt River Valley. After your drive, reach the natural splendors of the valley, home to the Cozia Monastery. Built in 1388 by the grandfather of Vlad the Impaler, the monastery is an interesting historical landmark: stop here for a short while to explore the building. Then, disembark in Sibiu, the regional capital of Transylvania. Replete with colorful houses, Gothic churches, and ornamental squares, Sibiu resonates beauty and charm.

During a stop in the traditional Romanian village, you’ll gain insight into local culture and visit a glass museum home to the largest icons in Transylvania. Following a tranquil ride back through the Olt River Valley, you’ll return to your Bucharest hotel.
