Book a transfer from Bucharest to Brasov — the gateway to Transylvania, a beautifully preserved medieval Saxon city nestled in a valley surrounded by the forested peaks of the Southern Carpathian Mountains.
The 170 km journey takes 2.5 to 3 hours heading north through the Wallachian plain, then climbing through the dramatic Prahova Valley and crossing the Carpathian Mountains into Transylvania — one of Romania's most scenic drives.
Brasov is Transylvania's most atmospheric city — a beautifully preserved medieval town originally built by Saxon settlers in the 13th century. The Council Square (Piata Sfatului) is surrounded by colorful Baroque facades, the Gothic Black Church is the largest between Vienna and Istanbul, and the Tampa mountain cable car offers panoramic views of the city and surrounding Carpathians. Nearby Bran Castle (the "Dracula Castle") and the fairy-tale Peles Castle in Sinaia are Romania's most visited attractions. The surrounding Carpathian forests offer hiking, bear-watching, and in winter, skiing at Poiana Brasov resort.
