About This Tour

We invite you to join us in discovering the charm of Buzău County on a day trip that combines the stories of places steeped in history, unique natural wonders, and the traditional flavors for which the area is famous. Our journey begins with a stroll through the park of the Alexandru Marghiloman estate, where we’ll admire the elegant Albatros Villa, a residence that keeps alive the aristocratic atmosphere of Romania’s past. We’ll then continue our journey to the village of Tisău to discover Bradu Monastery, a unique place whose high walls give it the imposing appearance of a medieval fortress.

The highlight of the day is the Mud Volcanoes, one of the most spectacular natural landscapes in Romania. Here, natural gases from deep underground push clay and water to the surface, shaping fascinating craters of volcanic mud—the perfect backdrop for memorable photos. The day will end on a delicious note with a stop dedicated to local flavors, where you’ll have the opportunity to savor and purchase authentic dishes, enjoying the true taste of Buzău.
