💐Happy 1st Day of Spring!💐

Romania celebrates today with a ‘Martisor’ a symbol always adorned with a red and white string, which is meant to bring a happy and prosperous year to the person who wears it.

At the Romanian Peasant Museum, there is a ‘Martisor’ fair every year, where local craftsmen showcase their skill and art in making unique objects, perfect to be offered to family and friends.

Here are some of our favorites, which one is yours?

❄️Winter Traditions in Romania ❄️

This past Winter, one of our tourists traveled to the East part of Romania, in Moldova to witness some of our most loved Winter traditions, the Bear Dance.

Here’s the final result 📷 as seen through the eyes of Erik Peterson, Photographer.

Passed down through generations, this wild display of energy, music and folklore is an experience that should be witnessed at least once in a lifetime. Year after year, thousands of people gather to watch them and we couldn’t imagine Christmas celebrations without it.

Have you heard of these types of traditions before? Do you have something similar in your country? We’d love to know ❤️

Fan of the Wednesday (Addams Family) Netflix series?

The castle that hosted Nevermore Academy is on the list of Romania's most haunted places after several visitors have reported spectral appearances in the photos taken at the location. 🏰

The family that owned the building has been one of the most influential in the country for centuries and has a very tumultuous history, with many of its members that died under unexplained circumstances. 😱

We'll visit this intriguing location and many more on our special Halloween tour 2023 along Mysterious Adventures Tours, accompanied by the amazing Grant Wilson. See you here?

🎃 Happy Halloween from Dracula’s Castle! 🎃

Sorry if we ghosted our social media this Summer, but we worked hard to bring better experiences to all of the guests that toured with us this season ❤️

This past Saturday we attended the annual Halloween Party at Bran’s Castle, the first one after the pandemic and needless to say it was EPIC fun!

You can check out our stories for more videos inside the castle, from our Night Tour conducted by non other than Vlad Dracula 🧛‍♂️🐉.

There is no better place to be for Halloween than at Dracula’s Castle, so who’s joining us next year?

One of the most mysterious Romanian traditions is happening tonight! (music video in first comment)

"Sânziene" are beautiful and powerful fairies that can bring either prosperity or wrath for those that either respect their sacred day or not. 🧚‍♀️

The Night of Sânziene is based on a pagan celebration around summer solstice, mixed with the Christian nativity of Saint John the Baptist.

Between June 23-24 it is believed that the Heavens open up, making it the strongest night for magic incantations, especially love spells!

Tradition has it that the most beautiful maidens in the village dress in white Romanian blouses, braid flowers in their hair and dance around bonfire looking for their chosen one 💘

If you wish to feel the spirit of Sanziene and divination, we invite you to listen to the modern folk song found in comments 🎶

Look closer to observe the writing. Can you recognize the alphabet?

A wonderful tradition shared between Romanians and Ukrainians: Easter Egg Painting.

As Orthodox Easter just passed, we kept a moment of silence for our neighbors.

One of the best places to see this centuries-old craft is in Bukovina, where Ruthenians (East Slavs from Ukraine) keep this art alive through annual Easter celebrations, Summer camp workshops and even dedicated museums.

Romania is safe to explore and through our tours we aim to contribute to these local communities. Keep the travel spirit alive 🙏

Happy Spring!🤍🧡

In spite of the recent events, we wanted to bring you a sign of hope for peace as the 1st of March marks the beginning of Spring and also "Martisor Day", celebrated in Romania and other countries of Eastern Europe.

The name Mărțișor is a diminutive of March (Martie in Romanian). There is a common belief that the person who wears the red and white string will enjoy a prosperous and healthy year.

The cultural practices associated to the 1st of March in Bulgaria, North Macedonia, Republic of Moldova and Romania (Mărțișor) were inscribed in 2017 on the UNESCO’s Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.

With this video, we send you a virtual Martisor to protect you and be a symbol of hope and good luck to you for the rest of the year!

About us

Hey, this is Vlad!​

Since I was a kid I loved to explore new places and go off the beaten path. I liked showing my friends the lucky finds and enjoying them together. No wonder I decided to study tourism and got an MSc in it.​ Although I imagined I'll be climbing the career ladder, after working in sales for a start-up company I realized that I actually want to work for myself.​ 3 years ago I quit my office job for a sabbatical journey that re-opened my eyes for my biggest passions: travel & hospitality. And then there was another one: I met Georgiana ♥

​Traveling was what united us, so we started planning our adventure to the Cayman Islands, while I was working on my dream job as an independent tour guide in Bucharest.​ After meeting so many people with Romanian roots that wanted to visit their ancestral country, I realized that maybe others would like to explore this hidden gem of Europe. And what better way to do it than with someone they already know! See you soon ✈

Hey, Georgiana here!
