Have you decided to visit Transylvania? Are you searching for escorted tours to Transylvania, but it is difficult to find one that you like? Maybe it’s time to try the Legends of Transylvania! In 5 days you will see the best of Transylvania, learn some secret legends and taste the delicious food. Perhaps you will also make new friends. Are you ready to enjoy this trip?

If you want to visit the most beautiful places in Transylvania and enjoy its rural landscape, you have several options. You can rent a car from Bucharest or Cluj Napoca and embark on a road trip through Transylvania. In this case, make sure you document yourself well in advance.
