This trip is the perfect way to discover another interesting part of Romania and the real story of Vlad the Impaler, sometimes associated with count Dracula. The tour guide will pick you up at 08:00 am from your hotel and you will head first  to Targoviste, the former capital of Wallachia province, to visit the Princely Court, the place where the Wallachian rulers used to reign for centuries.

After this, the trip will continue with an architectural masterpiece in Curtea de Arges, where you will have the chance to visit the beautiful Curtea de Arges Monastery.
