Private Tour in 3 Days
Even though this 3 days tour will seem short for the Medieval Towns of Sibiu, Sighisoara and Brasov, the Fortified Churches, Fortresses and Castles you will surely enjoy every part of it.
1st Day
After picking you from the airport or your hotel in Bucharest, we start our journey to Transylvania heading to Sibiu – the European Capital of Culture in 2007. During our 4 hour drive we'll have a stop at Cozia Monastery - founded in 1387, being the only Byzantine style building preserved in Romania. After you check in to your accommodation in Sibiu, we will have a pleasant walk in the historical city center including: Large Square, Small Square, Liars’ Bridge.
