Tours and Great Trips

How wide your eyes will open on your first tour out of Bucharest after arriving!
Every Romanian understands the natural beauty of their country, and several organised, guided and self-guided tour options exist for almost every activity and every taste.
And being a rather cheap country for most English-speakers, getting a driver and car can be less daily than your car rental in your home city!  Read More Here

Beach Life

Even Australians with their kilometres of endless sand will give a nod of approval to the nicely kept stretches on the Black Sea Coast.
The delightful tradition of sleepy seaside villages make Romanian beaches refreshingly relaxed, whilst a handful of more developed coastline with amusement parks and waterparks will keep the kids entertained too!    Read More Here

Romania's Big Wildlife

Few stop to ponder the big mammals of Romania, which include the Carpathian Brown Bear,   the Lynx and the Grey Wolf. 
All of them represent the largest populations in all of Europe, and roam across a surprisingly large range in the upper Carpathian mountains. Read more here!

The Danube Delta

The vast expanse of Europe's newest land is home to migratory birds and a beautiful delta ecosystem from the mighty Danube.  
Hidden villages with their own different cultures exist behind expanses of reedbeds in out of the way river channels which criss-cross the delta.
Great birdwatching opportunities exist as well as some fun cultural events and sights!

Eco-Tourism

No other European nation enjoys the vast breadth of variety sweeping from the Transilvanian plateau and the Carpathian Mountains down to the Danube and the Black Sea Coast!
Romania truly does have some stunning natural wonders to see, from gorges and caves to snowy spires and extensive riparian zones.  Read more here!

Hiking and Climbing

Whether you call it hiking, tramping, trekking or bushwalking, it is Romania's number one outdoor activity, and you'll love the well-marked trails with rewarding vistas along the way!  
Maps are good and facilities more than adequate for some serious activity in the beautiful spruce, fir and pine forests across this great country.  Read More Here

The Dracula Thing

The folklore of the undead spirits at night have run through Romanian history for generations.
Bram Stoker used much of this background to create the Hungarian-born character Count Dracula, born in what is now part of modern-day Romania.  But there is much more to the reality of Romania's folklore than just this!  Read More Here

Skiing & Winter Fun!

Snow boarders look forward to their Balea Lac slopes.  In the middle of summer!Europeans with a smart eye to the budget take advantage of the great prices and great slopes in Romania for their winter holiday fun! 
From delightful and well-developed Poiana Braşov, Buşteni, and Sinaia resorts, to the further afield Paltiniş and more!   Read More About Skiing in Romania Here

Fresh Food & Delightful Dining!

Every neighbourhood everywhere in Romania has a little market where the freshest produce and more can be found at ridiculously low prices. 
Maybe a world-class supermarket is more your style?  Not a problem!
Or dine out in style and try some great regional dishes. Read more here!

Shopping

Your local piaţă (market plaza) has all you need in your neighbourhood, each one like a mini-department store. 
Even smaller markets offering fruit and vegetables and baked bread dot the corners here and there too!   But, for a taste of home, the shopping mall has made a foothold here and there, although is still out of reach for most Romanians.    Read More Here
