November 25, 2006 - As you can imagine this is about stunning scenery and terrific places. Everyone knows and fears Dracula; still everyone wants to travel to Transylvania. Transylvania and the Carpathian mountains are the very best parts of Romania. If you come to think about it, Dracula’s is actually a pretty normal, quite modern person. Here’s a man that parties all night long, spends all days sleeping in a coffin – (some futurist furniture don’t you think? medieval style is back, you know!), never says no to a (bloody) drink and he is desperately in love with a woman. And he can afford it! He is a count and has his private castle. Top of the cake? He always looks so young!
Special events that you’ll experience in this Romanian vacation include:
• visit Bran Castle, Peles Castle, Corvinesti and Savarsin Castle - Legendary castles in Transylvania with plenty of good stories for a Halloween tour
• Halloween Party in Sighisoara - Dracula’s birth place
