Medieval Transylvania: your 3-day itinerary
This is the planned route, not a guaranteed timetable. Your agent confirms the order, access and pickup arrangements for your date.
Day 1: Bucharest and Sibiu
Sibiu Old Town
Explore the Great and Small Squares, the Bridge of Lies and roof windows known as the city’s “eyes”. Museum interiors are distinct from the guided street walk.
Day 2: Slimnic, Valea Viilor, Mediaș and Sighișoara
Slimnic and Valea Viilor
Explore the fortress ruins at Slimnic and the UNESCO-listed fortified church at Valea Viilor. Access to smaller heritage sites should be checked in advance.
Mediaș
Pause in the historic centre before continuing to Sighișoara. This breaks up the driving day and adds context to the region’s Saxon heritage.
Sighișoara Citadel
Walk through a lived-in UNESCO-listed historic centre, with guild towers and cobbled lanes. The Clock Tower, Covered Stairway and Church on the Hill can be discussed with your guide; interior visits depend on opening hours.
Day 3: Saschiz, Rupea, Brașov and Bucharest
Saschiz and Rupea
See Saschiz’s UNESCO-listed fortified church and the hilltop fortress at Rupea. Expect steps and outdoor walking, with access subject to the venues’ schedules.
Brașov Old Town
Walk around Council Square, the Black Church area and the lanes below Tâmpa. A church interior visit is separate from the Old Town walk and depends on access.
