Luxury Holiday to Romania

The Best of Romania

Transylvania, Romania’s best-known region, is far more than Dracula’s haunt. Picture-perfect towns like Brașov, Sibiu, and Sighișoara boast colourful baroque facades, Saxon fortified churches, and cobbled lanes that feel plucked from a storybook. Nearby, the dramatic Carpathian Mountains offer wooded hiking trails, wildlife encounters and remote monasteries.

Romania’s castles are truly impressive. Peleș Castle in Sinaia is a neo-Renaissance gem once home to Romania’s first king, while Bran Castle, often dubbed “Dracula’s Castle,” is steeped in myth and perched atop a dramatic cliff. In the countryside, traditions remain alive; witness rug weaving, egg painting, and slow-cooked stews in rustic Saxon villages. Bucharest, the dynamic capital, surprises visitors with its Belle Époque architecture, lively café culture, and growing contemporary art scene. It’s the perfect place to begin or end your journey.

Whether you're travelling as a couple, family, or group of friends, Lightfoot will create a bespoke Romania itinerary with exceptional guides, boutique accommodations, and one-of-a-kind experiences, like visiting UNESCO-listed churches or dining in a restored nobleman’s home.
