Under its former communist regime, the very best of Romania's interesting heritage and culture was tucked away for many years. Now part of the European Union, this is a country in transition; in one sense, it's progressing economically and modernizing. On the other hand, its rural villages and medieval towns still contain something of the past that is scarcely visible in our modern world today. In other words, it's a great time to visit Romania and its resurrected treasures. Allow our Groups Department Team at Europe Express to collaborate with you to customize your group's ideal trip. Perhaps the below itineraries are exactly what you're looking for – or perhaps your group has a special interest in Romania such as Romance languages, Gypsy (Roma) music, medieval villages or hiking in the Fagaras Mountains.
Your group might be interested in traveling through the frozen-in-time Romanian countryside – or it might prefer basing itself in the capital city of Bucharest, home to excellent museums, a superb Botanic Garden and a strong musical culture. If your group is interested in a vacation focusing only on Romania, sightseeing in Bucharest can easily be combined with other wonderful destinations in Romania like Sinaia, Sibiu, Curtea de Arges, Oradea, Brasov, Timisoara, Sighisoara and the monasteries of Moldavia. Europe Express regularly handles groups of all sizes and works directly with deluxe hotels as well as budget-conscious properties. Let our team create a truly memorable vacation experience in Romania that meets your group's interests, expectations and budget.
