  • Route Through Transylvania, Tailormade by Car 17/01
    Romania: Route through Transylvania, tailor­made by car The Carpathians in Romania, much more than haunting castles, mist­shrouded mountains and the legendary Count Dracula Surrounded by the Carpathian mountain range, Transylvania covers the central part of Romania and is one of the best­known regions outside the country. Much of this is due to the famous vampire Count Dracula, the literary character created by Bram Stoker and inspired by Vlad the Impaler. Thanks to this fascinating road trip, you can follow in the footsteps of the Romanian prince infamous for cruelly impaling his enemies and even explore the ruins of his former fortress, Poenari Castle. You can also visit the perfectly preserved Bran Castle, the bastion chosen by the communist dictator Nicolae Ceausescu to locate the residence of Vlad the Impaler and the imaginary vampire Count in an attempt to draw in more tourism to Romania. Or the house where he spent his formative years of life in Sighisoara and which was owned by his father, Vlad II Dracul. Yet despite being firmly placed on the tourist map, Transylvania offers visitors many other attractions than everything surrounding the immortal Dracula. In fact, this region has been controlled by the Dacians, the Romans, the Hungarians, the Transylvanian Saxons and the Ottomans, who all left behind a spectacular multicultural heritage that is very much alive today. Transylvania, translated from its Latin name as 'the land beyond the forest', is actually called Ardeal in Romanian, Erdély in Hungarian and Siebenbürgen in German. In Romania, you'll be enchanted by the beauty of its mountainous landscapes, its lush forests and its architectural heritage that includes iconic buildings such as the communist­era Palace of the Parliament in Bucharest; the Biserica Neagra in Brasov, the largest Gothic­style church in Romania and Southeast Europe; the Citadel of Rasnov; the famous fortified churches of Prejmer and Harman; and the Cathedral of Curtea de Arges, among many other exceptional tourist attractions.

    Coverphoto source: the Ministry of Tourism Database Introduction While the Government of Romania demonstrates support to the sector development through policy adjustments, tax reductions and financial incentives, the statistics suggest that Romania’s Travel and Tourism potential yet still to be exploited. In the past three years, Romania enjoyed an increase of 44% in international arrivals and reached 2.7 million. Although the growth is impressive, the country still records one of the lowest results on the EU28 scale. According to a variety of industry experts, analyzing the country’s tourism offer, market base, and marketing programs, Romania possesses a rich mix of unique, world-class natural, cultural, medical and spa assets that are ready to be leveraged. The primary challenge is three-fold: (1) improve the visitor services linked to these assets (infrastructure, transport, accommodations, site management through innovation and digitalization), (2) better coordinate between the state and private agencies at all levels to further promote small and medium business development and to reduce the human capital deficit, and (3) engage in more effective marketing initiatives to make the world’s highest spending outbound markets more aware of the assets and the unique travel experiences which Romania can offer. On marketing and promotion side, three overarching tasks to address are 1) improve tourism- related data collection and enhancing Ministry of Tourism’s (MoT) data analysis capacities, systems and infrastructure, and fully utilizing the benefits of the Tourism Satellite Accounts (TSA) to better inform the government on the required adaptations to the dynamics to the sector, 2) use the data to refocus and enhance the country’s tourism marketing efforts, and 3) enhance the tourism product offers and overall visitor experiences, to promote positive “word of mouth” and social media advertising, and generate repeated visits.
