Targoviste Royal Court, which was conceived as a complex of buildings that served both as an administrative center and as a dwelling for the ruler, his family, numerous courtiers, and servants.

    Before Tragoviste, Curtea de Arges was capital of Wallachia. The town`s strongholds were rebuilt in the 14th century. See its Princely Church and its frescoed interior which is one of the first examples of Romanian paintings.

    tanding on a cliff but now in ruins – this is known as the real castle of Dracula (Vlad Tepes). To get to the top you must climb up its 1400 steps (takes approx. 30 minutes). Once you arrive to the top of the castle you will find that it is surprisingly small; one third has collapsed down the mountainside in 1888. Entering through a narrow wooden bridge, you come across the crumbling remains of two towers within; the prism shaped one was Vlad`s ( Dracula`s) residential quarters.

Normally I’m not one to write reviews, but this was an excellent tour with an excellent guide. Ion was very knowledgeable of Vlad Tepes, the history of his times, and knowledgeable of pretty much any and every question My girlfriend and I could throw at him. He was a wealth of information and we were grateful to have him as a guide. The sites themselves are essentially ruins, but if you love history like I do then that should matter very little. I was captivated throughout the whole trip. I would definitely recommend to anyone in search of the REAL Dracula.

I have been traveling extensively in Europe for two and half years now. I have taken several tours and this was by far the best tour I have been on. This was all due to our tour guide. Nedea was informative, patient, humorous, accommodating and highly intelligent in addition to being extremely charming! My colleagues/friends and I had a wonderful time and Nedea made our weekend in Bucharest a very memorable experience. Multumesc, Nedea.
