On the way, you may visit the biggest salt mine in Europe, Slanic Prahova. The Salt Mine stands today for one of the most important watering and climatic resorts in Romania, situated between the Prahova Valley, 53.000 sqm wide and 208 m deep.

We invite you in the morning to experience the history, the myth, the intrigue and the magic of this wonderful place of Transylvania, the Bran Castle, commonly known as the famous Dracula Castle.

You continue your ride towards a small citadel which has preserved in an exemplary way the features of a small medieval fortified city and it has been listed by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site. Just nearby is the famous Citadel Valley Cave where you might have the chance to listen to a classical concert inside.

A ride to the most spectacular road in Europe! Should you be more excited today to ride on the famous Transfagarasan Pass, the most wanted road by motorcycle riders all over the world! Transfagarasan Pass crosses the Carpathian Mountains and offers you the most amazing view in Romania.

You will ride your motorcycle in the middle of the mountains where the sky meets the peaks and of course, in the middle of them, the most beautiful lake where you can swim and relax.

You will leave behind an amazing place and ride your motorcycle towards one of the most important cultural cities of Romania which was designated, in tandem with Luxembourg the European Capital of Culture for the year 2007. Formerly the center of the Transylvanian Saxons, the old city was ranked as “Europe’s 8th most idyllic place to live” by Forbes.
Visit the historical city, visit the highlights of the city and enjoy the most relaxing holiday atmosphere.
