Romania family holidays

 

Family holidays in the beautiful Romania are going to be an unforgettable adventure for kids and adults. Horse riding, water worlds, kids clubs. 

Our Romania family holidays let you see the places where myth and fairytales sprang. Dive into Bran Castle, enjoy the creepy vibe (especially at Halloween) and buy ghoulish gifts. Then take them to places linked to real-life scary dude Vlad Tepes - and ask locals to share some of Romania's enduring vampire beliefs.

 

Renowned as the home of Count Dracula, Transylvania in Romania is a place of myth and legend, where the traditional way of life of rural people has remained unchanged for generations, making it the perfect destination for a family adventure holiday.Starting out in the town of Bran,  enjoy an easy bike ride before visiting a shepherd's camp where you can see cheese being made. Also in this area, you can try hand at rock climbing, visit Dracula's castle and go to the ‘Libearty' Bear Reserve to learn about the endangered European brown bear. Moving on to the beautifully preserved Saxon village of Viscri, stay with a local family and learn to make bread, have a ride on a hay cart and watch and learn how a variety of traditional crafts are still carried on. The holiday should include a scenic walk on the Bucegi Plateau to reach the fantastic 'Sphinx Rock' using cable cars to take the effort out of the 1000 metre ascent and descent. Having seen life as it is lived in the mountain villages of the Carpathians and after visiting more of Romania's fairytale castles and palaces, you can return to Bucharest and spend a day amongst its cultural and historical attractions. Altogether an exciting and fun-packed family holiday week in a charming and culturally fascinating country!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Visiting Romania can seem like entering a magical past world – dark woods stalked by fearsome beasts, giant ice caves colonied by bats, medieval walled cities and ruined castles shrouded by eerie myth. 
It's also a place where your family can engage with timeless rural activities no longer seen at home. Kids will love getting stuck into Romania's rural lifestyle. Locals will gladly accept young helpers with tasks like hay-cutting or milking, while kids will love travelling round in horse-drawn carts – or sleighs in winter. Adults will enjoy milking cows and making cheese, carving wooden utensils or musical instruments. Or just enjoy the novelty of being invited by a friendly local into their home to share food and drink.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The landscape in Apuseni Mountains is very accessible for children – they can do hiking, biking, alpine touring skiing and snow-shoeing no matter what their age or level of outdoor experience. They can do light wall climbing and caving too. And the landscape is a living outdoor laboratory where adults and children alike can learn about karstic systems – how they are formed, how they work.

 

It may worth taking your kinds and explore Romania’s biggest waterside attraction, the Danube Delta, a region the size of Dorset pullulating with wildlife, and populated largely by fishermen living in isolated villages. Situated on the Black Sea coast, it’s also a UNESCO Natural World Heritage Site. Tourism here is still basic, but the environment is unique, particularly if you’re interested in birds.

The resorts along the Black Sea cost offer variety of water sports and the largest Aqua Park on the Black Sea coast is to be found in Mamaia.
