Embark on a day tour to explore Europe’s largest bear sanctuary, home to nearly 90 brown bears. Later, delve into the legend of Dracula and Vlad the Impaler at the famously eerie Bran Castle.

Escape the hustle and bustle of Bucharest and spend a full day exploring Transylvania on this tour. Begin with a visit to the Bear Sanctuary to meet and greet the brown bears, then head to Bran Castle, also known as Dracula's Castle, to delve into the history and legends of the area. Afterward, enjoy a scenic drive through the Carpathian Mountains before returning to Bucharest. Depart Bucharest to visit the Libearty Bear Sanctuary, a haven spanning over 69 hectares of forest with rivers and ponds, home to nearly 90 rescued brown bears. These bears, many of whom were saved from cramped cages and exploitation as tourist attractions, now enjoy a more natural habitat. Since 2008, visitors have had the chance to see these bears climbing trees, splashing in pools, and relaxing in meadows. Next, continue your journey with a scenic one-hour drive through the Carpathian Mountains to Bran Castle, famously known as Dracula's Castle. Originally built as a fortress, this castle is shrouded in mystery and legend, celebrated for its dramatic towers and turrets, as well as its association with Bram Stoker's Dracula. Explore its narrow, winding stairways and approximately 60 timber rooms, many linked by underground passages, which house collections of medieval furniture, weapons, and armor. Return to Bucharest in the evening after a day of discovery and adventure
