Your Experience

Need an escape from the busy streets of Bucharest? Then this tour is meant for you. After getting picked up from your hotel, head over to one of Romania's most interesting attractions - the Mogosoaia Palace. Walk in the footsteps of Wallachian kings and admire its stunning Venetian and Ottoman design elements. The palace was built in the 17th century as a retreat for Romanian rulers in a pure Romanian style called Brancovenesc and is complemented by other architectural wonders: the Gheorghe Bibescu Chapel, St. George’s Church, and the Mogosoaia greenhouses. Next up, enjoy a short drive to the 14th-century Snagov Monastery - said to be the resting place of the body of Vlad the Impaler, famously known as Count Dracula. Located on an island in the middle of Snagov Lake, it offers excellent views over the surrounding area.
