The quintessential experience
Three landmarks that define this journey
Accommodation with a story
Accommodations are chosen for their atmosphere, character, and positioning, so that each evening naturally continues the day’s experience. You will rest in places with identity, where you feel “settled”, not just accommodated.
Medieval Transylvania
Accommodations are chosen for their character and positioning, so that each evening naturally continues the day. You will rest in places with identity, where you feel settled, not just accommodated.
Hike with a view
Climbing Piatra Secuiului, with a mountain guide, brings air, tranquility, and wide views over Rimetea and the Trascău Mountains. Up there, a picnic break naturally completes the experience.
Why this experience is different
The village with two sunrises
Rimetea lies at the foot of Piatra Secuiului: the sun rises, disappears behind the ridge, and returns, like a “second beginning” of the day. It is an entrance into Transylvania that changes your rhythm from the first hours.
As in the old days
In Viscri and Biertan, Transylvania is felt in the courtyards, alleys, and old walls, in the simple rhythm of the Saxon village. You have a meeting with a local, lunch cooked in the village, and time to walk among houses and fortified churches.
City of salt
Turda Salt Mine welcomes you to an underground carved in salt: high galleries, underground lake, and light that transforms the space into an experience. A finale that leaves the body light and the mind clear.
Fragments of the experience
Transylvania is seen in details: a house with old shutters, a medieval square, a fortified church, a peak with a picnic. Scroll through the images and feel the rhythm of this journey.
