• 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 behind the Dracula legend. 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.
• Biertan Fortified Church - After enjoying lunch at a local restaurant, the tour continues to Biertan, a charming village dominated by its impressive fortified church, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. For nearly 300 years, this architectural marvel served as the seat of the Transylvanian Evangelical bishop. Here, visitors will discover the rich history of the Transylvanian Saxon community, exploring their origins, defensive strategies, daily life, and unique traditions, from winemaking to marriage customs. Hear centuries-old legends and admire the ingenious 16th-century sacristy door, a masterpiece of medieval craftsmanship.
• Tarnaveni - The next stop is the vineyard, passing through picturesque Transylvanian plains and charming villages. The Tarnava region, known for its cool climate and rolling hills, is home to some of Romania’s finest high-acid, aromatic white wines, particularly Feteasca Alba, Feteasca Regala, and Riesling. Shaped by the Tarnava River’s unique terroir, these wines are crisp, fresh, and bursting with floral and fruity notes. Saxon settlers played a key role in developing viticulture here during the Middle Ages, and today, the region remains a center for exceptional Romanian white wines. During the wine tasting experience, visitors will sample three distinct varieties, perfectly paired with palate cleansers, for a delightful sensory journey.
