Romania: A Journey Between Legends and Enchanting Landscapes
In the heart of the country, the high plateaus of Transylvania are wild and offer extraordinary towns and villages dominated by their impressive fortresses, such as Brașov. All around Transylvania, the beautiful Carpathian range offers magical landscapes of lush mountains. To the east, the Black Sea coast has numerous seaside resorts, charming fishing villages, as well as the Danube Delta, a thriving nature reserve. Finally, Bucharest, the capital, is a lively city, between modernity and tradition, with many trendy places. To discover these multiple riches of Romania, which is still in its early stages in tourism, organizing your trip directly with a local agency is the best way to ensure a tailor-made journey full of authenticity.

You will also find a wonderful diversity of landscapes, far from mass tourism. Romania offers a cultural and natural richness often unknown to Western travelers, promising unique and memorable experiences to those who dare to venture off the beaten path. Prepare to be amazed by the beauty and authenticity of this fascinating destination.
Discover the Must-Sees of Romania
The historic center of Bucharest is renowned for its many parks and 19th-century buildings. Bucharest has thus been nicknamed "Little Paris." Among the points of interest, don't miss the national theater, the university buildings, the pedestrian Lipscani district with its lively streets, Revolution Square, and the 1989 monument. Finally, the Palace of Parliament, also called the "People's House," is the largest stone building in Europe, just ahead of the Louvre Museum. A guided tour will allow you to discover the place.
Perched on the mountains in the heart of Transylvania is Bran Castle, famous for the legend of Dracula. This legend originates from the story of a Romanian historical figure known for his cruelty: Vlad the Impaler. He is said to have resided in this Carpathian castle which, despite its austere appearance, is not as gloomy as it seems.
The Danube Delta offers an exceptional and unique wild ecosystem in Europe. Birdwatching there is very interesting thanks to the 250 species of migratory birds present, including white pelicans.
Unexpected Romania
South of Constanta and up to the border with Bulgaria, the coastline boasts a large number of seaside resorts. They enjoy good sunshine, especially in summer. Some offer thalassotherapy services, like Eforie Nord, renowned for its therapeutic mud. The prices for treatments are very attractive, far below French rates. Not to be missed for a relaxing break during a trip to Romania!
With its cobbled streets, underground restaurants, and beautiful squares with lively café terraces, it's easy to fall under the charm of Sibiu, former European Capital of Culture.
In northern Romania, nestled in the heart of the forest, are beautiful wooden churches with impressive Gothic spires. Many house stunning biblical frescoes, some dating back to the 14th century.
The Irresistible Call of Preserved Nature
More and more tourists are heading to Romania for its natural attractions. The untouched forests of the mountains, the expanses of wildflowers, and the meeting of water and land in the delta are undoubtedly what Romania has to offer at its best. These lands with breathtaking landscapes are very suitable for hiking.
In the natural reserves of the Romanian mountains, there are many marked trails for tourists. Whether in the mountains or in the Danube Delta, the wilderness is also ideal for adventure sports.
Tourist Attractions in Every Season
In summer, it is hot, even very hot, and Romanians flock to the coast. The countryside is beautiful, with many possibilities for mountain hikes. One can stroll from village to village, from rustic guesthouse to charming villa, from folk festival to sumptuous monastery. Autumn and spring are the ideal seasons to visit the most beautiful cities: Sibiu, Cluj, Timișoara, Brașov, Sighișoara. Bucharest, stifling in summer, is pleasant in mid-season. Winter, often harsh, can make traveling difficult, especially in the countryside. It's the time to rush down the few slopes of winter sports resorts, increasingly popular with locals.
