- Centrul Istoric Sighisoara - The journey begins at the beautifully preserved medieval fortress of Sighisoara, one of the few still inhabited in Europe. Surrounded by nine of its original fourteen defense towers, the fortress showcases stunning medieval architecture and intriguing legends, including stories of Vlad the Impaler, the historical figure who inspired the Dracula myth. Visitors can climb the Covered Staircase to the Church on the Hill, explore the vibrant medieval streets, and, if desired, ascend the iconic Clock Tower (closed on Mondays) for breathtaking panoramic views—just as medieval guards once did.
- Tarnaveni - The next destination is the vineyard, traveling through the scenic Transylvanian plains and charming villages. The Tarnava region, known for its cool climate and rolling hills, produces some of Romania’s finest high-acid, aromatic white wines, particularly Feteasca Alba, Feteasca Regala, and Riesling. Influenced by the unique terroir of the Tarnava River, these wines are crisp, fresh, and full of floral and fruity notes. Saxon settlers significantly contributed to the development of viticulture here during the Middle Ages, and today, the region remains a hub for exceptional Romanian white wines. During the wine tasting experience, guests will sample three distinct varieties, perfectly paired with palate cleansers, for a delightful sensory journey.
