This small-group day trip from Brasov covers key medieval sites in Transylvania over about nine hours. The trip starts with a visit to Viscri village, where the guide leads a tour of the well-preserved fortified church. Afterward, the group travels to Sighisoara, a town that has remained largely unchanged since the 16th century. Here, there is a two-hour walking tour of the medieval streets, followed by free time for lunch or independent exploration. Visitors can try local snacks like langos or dine at traditional restaurants such as Alte Post. The walking surfaces are uneven cobblestones, so sturdy shoes are advised. The final stop is Rupea Fortress, a 14th-century castle built on basalt rock featuring three defensive rings and a 60-meter deep well with potable water. Transportation throughout the day is by air-conditioned car or minivan. Hotel pickup and drop-off are included for locations in Brasov outside the old town.
