Highlights
  • University’s Square - Your private guide will pick you up from your accommodation in Bucharest. While driving towards our first stop, the guide will brief you about what to expect during the day: 1 wine museum and 2 wine tastings at local wineries situated on the hills of Dealu Mare wine region.

Romania, a country with a long standing tradition in wine-making, is the world’s 13th wine producer, despite losing half of its farmable lands after the 1989 revolution and despite suffering a loss of prestige several decades ago, when communists favored mass production over quality. Nowadays, the country has gone through a process of mass restoration, aiming to retake its rightful place among the Top 10 wine producing countries.

Additional Information

Embark on a journey through the historic wine route, visiting two wineries, a time-honored manor and savor 12 varieties of wine paired with ample cheese, charcuterie, and fascinating tales!

Indulge in a fully personal day trip from Bucharest, tracing the ancient wine path of Romania which is reopened to the public recently after enduring a long period of ‘dormancy’. Initially constructed by the Romans two millennia ago, the road traverses straight through the lofty hills of Dealu Mare, showcasing beautifully rejuvenated manors with aged cellars and vast vineyards.

During this expedition, you’ll get a chance to explore a wine museum situated within an ancient Wallachian manor and partake in two wine tasting events at renowned wineries. The outstanding quality of the wines and the expertise of the local producers will elucidate why Romania is recapturing its place as a leading wine country, currently ranking as the world’s 12th largest producer. In vino veritas!

Amazing Tour - This trip was amazing and exceeded our expectations. The wineries we visited were quirky and and full of interesting characters who made us feel very welcome; the wines we sampled were the best we've ever tasted and we even got to sample some at different stages in the fermentation process. We were also given copious amounts of food and even whole bottles of wine surrounded by the most beautiful countryside. So very good value for money considering all we got for it. What's more our host Mihai was incredibly friendly and tailored the experience to make sure we had the best time. He's really knowledgeable when it comes to history. So no need to do an additional walking tour- Mihai will give you that for free while driving around Bucharest and Delu Mare! We'd definitely do this tour again if we came back to Romania.
