Itinerary of your trip Private Two Days Tour To Bucovina And Unesco Painted Monaste

  • Day 1 Day 1: Cluj-Napoca - Bistrita - Ciocanesti Village - Voronet Monastery - Gura Humorului
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Day 1: Cluj-Napoca - Bistrita - Ciocanesti Village - Voronet Monastery - Gura Humorului

      To begin this two-day tour, you will be picked up from your hotel in Cluj-Napoca by your guide and start the journey to Bukovina. On our way to Bucovina, we will make a quick stop in Bistrita, the northernmost fortified Transylvanian town. In a short walking tour through the town you will enjoy the medieval legends and explore its narrow streets.

      Next on your tour, we will drive to Ciocanesti Village for a workshop at Mr. Dumitru, the blacksmith of the village. He will show you the technique of working with the hot metal and how to transform it in every-day tools.

      Bucovina is especially famous for its painted monasteries, and in these two days you will visit the most representative of all seven.

      In the second part of the day you will have the chance to visit the most famous painted monastery in the world, Voronet Monastery. The frescoes of the monastery are dominated by intense shades of blue, and the southern wall depicts the best-preserved โ€˜Last Judgementโ€™ fresco in Romania. The monastery was built in 1488 by Prince Stephen the Great in order to commemorate one of his victories against the Ottoman Empire.

      You will check-in in Gura Humorului, and after a short break you will enjoy a traditional dinner with a folkloric dance show at a near-by restaurant.

      Overnight in Gura Humorului


  • Day 2 Gura Humorului - Humor Monastery - Moldovita Monastery - Transrarau Highway - Cluj-Napoca
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Gura Humorului - Humor Monastery - Moldovita Monastery - Transrarau Highway - Cluj-Napoca

      You will start the day with a short drive to Humor Monastery, a small cross-shaped church built here in 1530, and it was dedicated to the Dormition of Virgin. Red hues dominate the exterior frescoes showing scenes from the lives of saints, as well as significant moments from the localsโ€™ lives, such as the wars with the Turks. 

      Moldovita Monastery is the next stop on your itinerary. The outside frescoes of the church were painted by Toma of Suceava in 1537, and they contain strong nuances of gold and blue. The last judgment covers the entire surface of the western walls, and it includes several other scenes such as the Siege of Constantinople or the Tree of Jesse.


      The highlight of the day is Transrarau Highway. With a total length of 28 kilometers (17 miles) it is known as the Treasury Road. You will be amazed by its curves and the scenery. It goes up to 1400 meters in altitude, and from there we will have a hike through the Rarau Mountains. You will have the chance to see the rock formations that emerged from the ground millions of years in order to give birth to these mountains.

      After you filled your lungs with fresh air it is time for lunch. Today will try the fish in Pojorata village, at a fish farm. 

      After the delicious lunch you will head back to Cluj Napoca. You will reach Cluj-Napoca at around 18:00 and your tour will come to an end.
