Hike&City PrivateTour- Dracula's Castle and Pestera mountain village from Brasov
Overview
Do you want to find out the truth behind Dracula? The Bran Castle is the place where his legend is kept alive all year round. It’s the most famous Castle in Transylvania and waits for you to visit it. It’s believed to have belonged to Vlad the Impaler, the real ruler behind the name of “Dracula”. But what is a myth, and which one is the truth? You can find out if you choose to take this private tour.
The second part of the trip is dedicated to the outdoors. We will visit Pestera, a timeless place. A village surrounded by the most magnificent mountains you will ever see. A place where the locals still live like tenths of years ago. A place barely touched by technology. An opportunity for you to taste the traditional meals, all prepared from purely natural ingredients. Are you going to choose this experience?
