Afterward, our journey will take us back to Brasov. The itinerary will align closely with that of the Transylvania and Wallachia Castles Tour.

We will explore the renowned Church of the Hill and the Clock Tower, which houses the city's History Museum.

After a leisurely lunch break, we will commence our return journey to Brasov, stopping to admire the grand Rupea Citadel, a significant landmark in the area. The tour will be reminiscent of the Sighisoara Trip.

We’ll meander through its historic center, particularly admiring the fortified church.
