Despre activitate
The legend of Count Dracula is known worldwide, but much of it is rooted in myth rather than history. Many associate Vlad Tepes with Dracula and Bran Castle with his home—yet neither is historically accurate.
The Real Dracula Tour uncovers the true story behind the legend by visiting Poenari Fortress, the real mountain stronghold built and used by Vlad the Impaler. The tour also includes Targoviste, the former capital of Wallachia during Vlad’s reign, Curtea de Arges, home to a beautiful monastery, and a scenic stop at Vidraru Dam, set beside the famous Transfăgărășan Road.
This small-group, full-day tour from Bucharest is led by a friendly local guide and combines authentic history, dramatic landscapes, and lesser-known sites—ideal for travelers seeking the real story behind Dracula.

The first stop is Targoviste, the former capital of Wallachia, the principality once ruled by Vlad Tepes, better known as Vlad the Impaler. This historic city played a key role in medieval Romanian history and was one of Vlad’s main royal residences. Here, you will explore the former Princely Court and climb the iconic Chindia Tower, today the unmistakable symbol of Târgoviște and a powerful reminder of its turbulent past.

At the next stop, you will visit Curtea de Arges Monastery, one of the most beautiful and important religious monuments in southern Romania. Renowned for its elegant proportions and refined details, the monastery is an outstanding example of Byzantine-inspired architecture and is closely connected to Romanian royal history. Beyond its architectural beauty, the site is also famous for its legends, which add a touch of mystery to this remarkable place.

At the next stop, you will reach Poenari Fortress, dramatically perched high above the Argeș Valley. After a short but rewarding climb, prepare to admire a spectacular mountain panorama and to hear the tumultuous story of Vlad Tepes, one of the most intriguing and controversial figures in Romanian history. Often considered the true inspiration behind the Dracula legend, Poenari was Vlad’s real stronghold and offers a powerful insight into his life, rule, and legacy.

You will then stop at Vidraru Dam, an impressive engineering achievement from Romania’s communist period, dramatically set in the heart of the Făgăraș Mountains. Located next to the legendary Transfagarasan Road, famously described by Top Gear as “the most beautiful road in the world,” the dam offers striking views over Lake Vidraru and the surrounding alpine landscape.
