Romanian Wine Trails
White, rosé or red, dry or sweet, we have them all!
Romania is one of the “Top 12 Wine Producers” in the world (on the 10th place in 2002, according to the U.S. News & World Report) and here you can find a vineyard in almost every corner of the country, in nearly all the agricultural areas spread all over the land. This is why you can make your own wine tour, passing from cellar to cellar and tasting various types of wine, all while visiting picturesque villages, admiring the world-famous painted monasteries (UNESCO sites), the scenic Carpathian Mountains or just the spectacularly colorful display of nature. A wine tasting tour is an opportunity to sample some delicious wines and discover charming wine-producing regions.

Follow the footsteps of the real Dracula and get ready to party: costumes, fun and spooky atmosphere, old customs, medieval knights, monsters, vampires and ancient myths are all here.
