Romania

Considered by many as Eastern Europe's most beautiful country, Romania sits at the meeting point of Central Europe, Eastern Europe, and the Balkan States, but remains distinct from each. The Romanian cultural identity is also unique, having emerged from ancient Roman times to be influenced by the Slavs, the Greeks, the Hungarians, and the Germans.

Having joined the European Union in 2007, Romania's rural countryside is still years behind the rest of Europe. As Romania's younger generation works on modernizing their country, we still have the chance to pedal through traditional farmlands maintained using traditional tools and horse drawn carts. There is much more to Romania than peaceful bucolic scenes; outstanding landscapes, majestic castles, medieval towns, and traditional villages abound. Join us and experience the complex contrasts of this fascinating country.
