Details

Transylvania is one of the most emotive place names. Much of the focus is on Bram Stoker’s creation and the bloodthirsty Prince Vlad III or Vlad the Impaler, upon whom Dracula was loosely based. However, the region offers a fascinating mix of cultural influences, from the Saxons to the raiding Tatars and Ottomans. The natural diversity and beauty of the region is also key to capturing the imagination as castles and churches are framed by the imposing Carpathian and Fagaras mountains. The best seat from which to view all this is that of a bicycle, allowing us to soak up the tranquillity and majesty of the landscape at a pace that means we can enjoy the hidden stories and places along the way. We finish with time in Bucharest, once the seat of communist power but still with enough left to remind visitors why it was once known as the Paris of the East.

Points forts

  • Explore Romania by bike, cycling through ancient villages and mountainous landscapes
  • Ride through rural Transylvania to the village of Viscri, where King Charles owns a house
  • Uncover the history of the nation in Saxon settlements, UNESCO-listed citadels and fortified churches
  • Climb the old fort in Brasov to gaze over the town and 14th-century Black Church
  • End the adventure in Bucharest, a culture-rich capital with museums and old streets to explore

Inclus dans le prix

  • All breakfasts, five lunches and six dinners are included in the price of the trip. Romanian cuisine has strong influences from the surrounding countries including Bulgaria, Serbia and Hungary. We will try fantastic home-cooked meals on this trip as we spend most nights staying with local families and in guesthouses. Breakfasts will consist of homemade bread and cheeses plus a selection of locally sourced meats, salad, and tea or coffee. There are five picnic lunches, two at a local family home and three enjoyed al fresco. They are made by the staff at our guesthouses and will usually be sandwiches, salad, fruit and more of their homemade cheese. Some days we will have a traditional vegetable soup for lunch with homemade crème fraiche and bread. Dinners are usually centred around pork or beef. Lots of guesthouses will prepare sarmale cu mamaliguta, a traditional Romanian dish of minced pork wrapped in pickled cabbage leaves and served with polenta and a chilli. It’s not all about the food though; every household makes their own tuica (pronounced tsweeka), a spirit usually made from plums and flavoured with herbs from their garden or the surrounding area. This is usually drunk while being welcomed into the house and after dinner.
