I like to travel the world to discover the most interesting, but more. I like to talk about my country, with many legends and stories about my people. As a travel guide, I have an experience of more than 5 years: in Romania, Malta and Turkey.

Tour description

Once the endless forests of the Prahova Valley were famous for being "The Bandits' Nest". Over time, it came to be nicknamed "The Cradle of the Romanian Dynasty." Today it is "The Pearl of the Carpathians", a place that is worth seeing at least once in a lifetime.

Until the end of the 17th century, until the construction of the Sinaia Monastery, few dared to travel through this land. Two centuries later, attracted by this wild beauty, the first king of Romania, Carol I, decided to build his summer residence here, Peles Castle. Naturally, in a short time, the place became the favorite spot of the elite, and the small town filled with luxurious houses, hotels, restaurants, shops, and a casino. By the end of the 19th century, Sinaia was already nicknamed "The Summer Capital of Romania" or "The Little Versailles."

The free tour will end next to Peles Castle. Those who want to visit it inside will have to buy a ticket (one floor 10 euros, two floors 20 euros, three floors 30 euros, students and young people with EuroCard26 - pay only 25%, seniors - 50%) which can be done in advance at bilete.peles.ro or directly there. The guided tour will last at least an hour.

The tour is organized by a certified tour guide and is conducted in small groups.
Your participation will be possible and guaranteed only with a prior reservation.
