TRANSYLVANIA OCTOBER 2025: HALLOWEEN SPECIAL

Price range: 450,00€ through 550,00€

Halloween Trip to Transylvania: Brașov, Sighișoara & Dracula’s Castle


 

Experience a different kind of Halloween among medieval walls, cobblestone lanes and legendary castles.

We’ll be based in Brașov, with a day trip to Sighișoara and a tour of the Peleș–Cantacuzino–Bran castles — with the chance to spend the spookiest night of the year inside Bran Castle (better known as Count Dracula’s 🧛‍♂️ home). Multicultural, friendly and authentic, with plenty of free time to soak it all in!

✨ Why choose our Halloween tour?

Halloween where the legend began: a small-group trip through Transylvania with Brașov as your base, an excursion to UNESCO-listed Sighișoara and the castle trilogy of Peleș–Cantacuzino–Bran.

Easy pace, genuine atmosphere and the My Friend In style—close-knit, multicultural (IT/ES/EN) and detail-driven.
Plus, it’s the only small-group tour that can include the official Halloween Party inside Dracula’s Castle (Bran) in the package (the “PARTY” option), with round-trip Uber already arranged—so you only have to focus on having fun.

✨ Trip highlights

🎃 Halloween in Transylvania: an itinerary designed to make the very most of 31 Oct & 1 Nov, without rushing.
📍 Base in Brașov: a gorgeous medieval city, a stone’s throw from everything.
🧛‍♂️ Sighișoara: UNESCO citadel and birthplace of Vlad Țepeș (Dracula).
🏰 Three castles in one day: Bran, Peleș and Cantacuzino (🎟️ entry to Bran & Cantacuzino included).
🎉 Halloween Party in Bran (optional): 🚖 round-trip Uber from Brașov included in the “with party” package.
🌍 My Friend In vibe: multicultural group (ES/IT/EN) and the freedom to travel at your own rhythm.

🗺️ Detailed itinerary

📅 Thursday 30 Oct – Arrival → Brașov
Land in Bucharest (OTP) and take our shared transfer to Brașov, winding through autumn valleys and forests. Check into a central hotel, then head out for dinner together and a first stroll around Council Square, the Black Church and the medieval streets already buzzing with Halloween vibes.

📅 Friday 31 Oct – Sighișoara + Halloween night in Brașov (optional)
Morning transfer to Sighișoara: climb the Clock Tower, wander among colourful houses and enjoy a leisurely lunch. Depart around 16:00 to reach Brașov by 18:00—time for a shower, a touch of spooky make-up and dinner out. Anyone keen can keep the night going in bars or clubs; the city is especially lively tonight.

📅 Saturday 1 Nov – Three castles + Halloween Party in Bran
Start in Sinaia before the elegant Peleș (exterior visit, interior optional). Continue to Cantacuzino—entry included and perfect “Wednesday”-style photo spots. In the afternoon arrive at Bran and enter the castle (ticket included). After dark, guests on the €520 party package enjoy the Bran Halloween Party with round-trip Uber from Brașov, while others can choose a calmer evening in taverns and lantern-lit streets.

È stata una delle esperienze più belle della mia vita, e tutto grazie alla gentilezza, alla professionalità di Roberta, ideatrice del programma My Friend In. Attraverso il sito web, disponibile in tre lingue, io e un mio amico abbiamo acquistato diversi pacchetti per il nostro primo viaggio a Gran Canaria. Vi consiglio assolutamente le escursioni, abbiamo esplorato posti bellissimi come il Barranco de las vacas dove abbiamo scattato delle bellissime foto, spiagge paradisiache come quella di Anfi e Amadores e piccoli villaggi coloratissimi come il porto di Mogán, le dune di maspalomas etc..: Questo viaggio non solo ci ha regalato emozioni bellissime ma anche una nuova amica! Grazie Roby, sicuramente ci rivedremo presto!

Travelling for Gran Canaria and choosing My Friend In was one of the best decisions for our holidays . A wonderful experience thanks to the knowledge and organization of My friend in which led us to discover wonderful places such as Anfi del Mar, the Maspalomas Dunes, Mogan, Las Palmas and many others. With Roberta, an incredible and friendly Woman more than a guide , she accompanied us through this journey making us feel like real locals visiting the whole island in comfort and carefree. Completely in love with the island thanks also to all these adventures. Absolutely recommended!!!

Mi primera experiencia “solo” en Sudamérica, decidí viajar a Mexico (Yucatán). Pero no solo del todo, porque decidí contratar el maravilloso plan de viaje que ofrece My friend In. Roberta, que es la artífice de este genial proyecto, me asesoró en todo momento sobre lo vuelos más baratos, los alojamientos con mejor calidad precio y un itinerario completo de más de 1.000km por todo el Yucatán e incluyendo actividades que personalmente me gustan como buceo o visita a cenotes. Además, pude disfrutar de su compañía como guía y de su experiencia en viajes, durante toda la expedición. Honestamente es una persona maravillosa y entregada a su proyecto y clientes. 100% recomendable, sin duda, repetiré en otro destino.
