We invite you to register your interest for our ‘Romania – Beyond Transylvania’ Small Group Tour & Conference — a journey into the heart of Eastern Europe’s most beguiling landscapes, medieval fortresses, and age-old traditions. 

Romania is one of Europe’s most bewitching destinations — hidden gem in a less travelled corner of the continent where we deliberately avoid the maddening crowds, yet experience scenery, history and culture that are every bit as extraordinary as Europe’s more famous destinations. From medieval citadels perched above rolling hills to soaring peaks and timeless rural traditions, this Small Group Tour & Conference journeys deep into an authentic and captivating land. From the dynamic capital of Bucharest to the traditional villages of northern Romania, from fortified Saxon towns to sacred painted monasteries, this is Romania in all its remarkable variety and charm.

Begin in Bucharest, Romania’s capital, where grand boulevards and eclectic architecture reflect layers of history — from Ottoman influences through Belle Époque splendour to modern cultural energy. Wander the atmospheric cobblestones of the Old Town, savour your first Romanian meal and feel the pulse of this fascinating city come to life.

Travel north into the heart of  Transylvania, visiting the fortified Saxon towns of Sibiu and e Braşov, with UNESCO-listed squares, Gothic spires and colourful markets. Explore dramatic citadels and lively streets rich with local crafts and culinary delights.

Journey through medieval landscapes to Sighişoara, one of Europe’s best-preserved walled citadels and the birthplace of Vlad the Impaler — the historical figure behind the Dracula legend — where ancient walls and winding lanes evoke another era.

Venture into Maramureş, a region where traditional life endures amidst unspoilt landscapes. Discover intricately carved wooden churches and village gates, meet local artisans weaving vibrant textiles and shaping wooden masterpieces, and experience warm village hospitality that has endured for centuries.

Visit the world-famous Merry Cemetery in Săpănta  — a unique open-air cultural site of colourful carved wooden crosses adorned with vivid paintings and poetic epitaphs that joyfully narrate the lives of those commemorated, offering a deeply human and uplifting perspective on life and death.

Continue to Bucovina, home to Romania’s famous painted monasteries — UNESCO World Heritage Sites adorned with vivid exterior frescoes depicting biblical scenes. These sacred masterpieces showcase Romania’s extraordinary spiritual heritage and artistic ingenuity.

Throughout your journey, experience the grandeur of the Carpathians as your tour, exploring serene alpine lakes framed by forested slopes, hear soulful folk music in village squares, and learn the stories behind Romania’s rich tapestry of myth, history and tradition.
