Discover the ancient wine road and visit 2 wineries, 1 historic manor and taste 12 wine varieties along with lots of cheese, charcuterie and great stories!
Enjoy an epic and fully private day-trip from Bucharest and follow Romania’s old wine road, reopened to the public after several decades of "hibernation". Initially build by the Romans 2000 years ago, the road cuts straight through Dealu Mare's high hills, displaying beautifully restored manors with old cellars and endless vineyards.
Along the way, you’ll visit a wine museum located inside an old Wallachian manor and enjoy 2 wine tasting sessions at two prestigious wineries. The quality of the wines combined with the knowledge of the local producers will help you understand why Romania is reclaiming its position as a top wine country, currently being the world's 12th producer. In vino veritas!

Prior to visiting Romania for the first time, my wife and I had no idea that Romania had such a rich and long tradition of wine making. To that end, Mihai, our tour guide, did an outstanding job of introducing us to that tradition by taking us to visit (and sample the wines from) several active Dealu Mare wineries, as well as a fascinating museum located within the grounds of a former estate in the Dealu Mare region. Mihai was punctual, extremely friendly, knowledgeable in many topics wine related and not, and fully conversant in English--all of which made for a great conversation as we drove with him through the Romanian countryside, effortlessly solving all of the world's problems (if only). In sum, we had a great tour of the Dealu Mare wine region and would highly recommend it to anyone seeking a personalized introduction to the interesting wines of Romania in the company of a wonderful guide--call us "pleasantly surprised" indeed.

This trip was amazing and exceeded our expectations. The wineries we visited were quirky and and full of interesting characters who made us feel very welcome; the wines we sampled were the best we've ever tasted and we even got to sample some at different stages in the fermentation process. We were also given copious amounts of food and even whole bottles of wine surrounded by the most beautiful countryside. So very good value for money considering all we got for it.
What's more our host Mihai was incredibly friendly and tailored the experience to make sure we had the best time. He's really knowledgeable when it comes to history. So no need to do an additional walking tour- Mihai will give you that for free while driving around Bucharest and Delu Mare!
We'd definitely do this tour again if we came back to Romania.
