Exploring Eastern Europe on a cruise is an unforgettable experience. Romania and Bulgaria are two countries that are worth exploring. From the magical monasteries of Northern Bulgaria, to the Transylvanian Alps of Romania, there’s plenty of adventure to be found here.
When you’re in Romania, you’ll want to visit some of its classic cities like Bucharest and Brasov that take you back in time with their old-world charm and history. On the other hand, if you’re looking for something more contemporary, the cities of Sofia and Veliko Târnovo in Bulgaria offer plenty of modern amenities. Make sure you also explore some of their countryside where age-old traditions continue to live on.
Both countries offer a plethora of experiences from touring ancient fortresses, to visiting historical sites like the Church of Saint John Alexander Nevsky and Park Borisova Gradina—allowing you to immerse yourself in local cultures like never before!
