This iconic Transylvanian castle is an incredible example of Gothic architecture in this region of Europe. With the knowledgeable guide, you will discover every corner of the castle and learn the history and legends of the Castle, developed over 500 years. Throughout the castle, prepare to walk up around 100-200 stairs and a total of 1-2 miles throughout your tour. If desired, enjoy 15 minutes of free time for souvenir shopping or buying snacks at the shops near the castle.

Next, we'll be on your way to Alba Iulia to begin the next stage of the journey. We will visit the Citadel of Alba Iulia, a Vauban fortress where we'll discover 2 millennia of Romania's history walking on the alleys and squares inside. In the citadel, we will visit the Orthodox Church and Catholic Cathedral as well as the Roman ruins. We will admire the imposing bastions and ravelins of the fort as well as the beautifully carved Baroque-era gates. Our guests will have another 15 minutes of free time to grab a coffee or browse the souvenirs in the main square of the citadel. During your time in Alba Iulia, the guests can also choose to stop for lunch (at own expense) and choose from an array of restaurants that are serving both Romanian and international food.

On the way back to Sibiu, we will detour through the traditional villages located at the foothills of the mountains near Sibiu. The first village will be Sibiel, a charming rural settlement that kept its traditional architecture and pastoral character unspoiled.

We will continue our ride in the Transylvanian countryside passing through Orlat, Poplaca and Rasinari. Before reaching the village, we will stop on the hill where a beautiful panorama of the village and the Carpathian mountains opens up. We will be able to see the lofty ridges of the Fagarasi mountains or the forested peaks of the Sibiu mountains
