An absolute highlight. The tour was excellent. The guide was friendly and informative, and it is definitely worth the extra charge to take photos of the magnificent rooms.

Bucegi  Mountains

Reviewed By AnthonyJ376 - Antwerp, Belgium

If you go to Romania, you cannot miss out on a hiking trip in the Bucegi Mountains. We did a one day hike, and I wished we could do some more and stayed more time in that region. The blue cross hike up from Busteni to the Babele is breathtaking, adventurous and awesome! Don't miss out.

Sinaia Monastery

Reviewed By Vladimiramirela - Mississauga, Canada

I am running out of superlatives here. I have visited this monastery many timesover the years and I am happy to say that it seems to get better every time. It is well maintained and clean, providing neccessary facilities for tourists, and everything people coming to pray or meditate may need. More recently, the old little chapel has been restored and opened to visitors. It is beautiful in its age and simplicity. One more reason to stop over and spend a quiet contemplative time.

What a lovely place Queen Mary and King Ferdinand built! Intimate, cosy, charming. The touch of this great couple can be seen in this whole castle. The heart of the queen rests in the Golden Room. One of the most charming castles I have visited.

Casino Sinaia

Reviewed By AndreiStej - Bucharest, Romania

This old Casino looks astounding. Beautiful architecture ans set in a very nice little park next to an old and luxurious hotel. It has great history and it's worth a visit with a guided tour. The architecture inside is wonderful and you kinda go back to the days when they played poker or roulette here. At the end of the tour you have some little and wonderful art galleries and also a good small cafe. This building is also used for important conferences.
