Transylvania "the land beyond the forest" lies in the center of Romania, cradled
within the protective arc of the Carpathian Mountains. It is one of the most interesting regions in Europe
with an exciting blend of different cultures and civilizations. The territory was under Hungarian, Ottoman
and Hapsburg occupation though most cities and towns were formed in the late 12th century and early 13th
century when "Saxons" were brought in to guard the frontiers. They founded the so-called
"Siebenbürgen" - the seven towns, though the presence of this isolated German - speaking population
has attracted numerous romantic legends. The most representative towns are Brasov, Sibiu, Sighisoara, Cluj,
Fagaras, Bistrita, Sebes and Medias. The tariffs include: full board, accommodation sharing in double room in 3 stars hotels and 3-4 stars boarding
houses, guide service, museum entrance fees, transportation by bus, transfer from and to the airport.
