In Dealu Mare

1h 30m
Admission ticket not included

Lunch in the Dealu Mare wine region (often referred to as "Romania's Tuscany"). And is not just about the food, but more important it's about history, heritage and respect.

The winery is renowned for its strong red varieties such as Fetească Neagră (Romania's flagship variety), Shiraz, and Cabernet Franc, as well as for its premium blends such as the Sforile range.

Snagov Monastery

45m
Admission ticket not included

The mystical island sanctuary where history meets the legend of Dracula, in a setting straight out of a medieval film. It is world-famous as the location of Vlad the Impaler's tomb—the real-life inspiration for Count Dracula. The monastery is located on a small island in the middle of Lake Snagov. Access is via a long footbridge, offering a picturesque and peaceful experience, far from the hustle and bustle of Bucharest. In addition to its religious role, the island has served as a prison and coin mint in the past, adding a layer of mystery to the visit. The current building dates back to the 16th century and preserves original Byzantine frescoes. But the holy site is much much older. Admission is 4 EUR each

Ploiesti (Pass by)

The Black Gold Capital of Europe, a place with deep historical resonance, Ploiești is home to the world's first oil refinery, built in 1857. This innovation made Bucharest the first city in the world to be lit by gas lamps. For many Americans, the name "Ploiești" is synonymous with one of the most daring and costly air missions in US history - Operation Tidal Wave. On 1 August, 1943, B-24 Liberator bombers flew at low altitude from Libya to strike the refineries that fuelled the German war machine. The mission was so intense that five Medals of Honour were awarded in a single day — a record for the Air Force.
