Romania and Bulgaria Motorcycle Tour - Full Trip
Vložit
- čas přidán 12. 09. 2022
- In September, 2021, with Covid-19 pandemic control restrictions still making it hard to travel to most places, we made a (somewhat) last minute trip to Eastern Europe and spent nearly 2 weeks riding motorcycles through the beautiful landscapes and fascinating towns of Romania and Bulgaria.
Complete blog about the trip here: www.pointsunknown.com/blog/20...
We rented motorcycles from Romania Motorcycle Tours and spent 13 days riding around Romania and Bulgaria. We saw and did ALL the cool things (ok, that’s an exaggeration) including castles, medieval towns, high alpine twisty roads, gorgeous black sea beaches, the Danube river (over and over again), charming guesthouses, delicious local foods, mountain passes, and more.
We selected to do a ‘self-guided’ motorcycle tour because we wanted the ability to go at our own pace and customize our adventure to our specific needs. But that doesn’t mean we were necessarily ‘on our own.’ The excellent folks at Romania Motorcycle Tours provided our motorcycle rental, organized our custom itinerary, and booked our nightly accommodation. They checked in with us regularly over the course of our trip and when things didn’t go as planned (more on that later), were quick to make adjustments - leaving us to enjoy the travel without getting bogged down in logistics. We couldn’t have put together such an amazing and fun trip without them.
Out trip itinerary included:
Day 1: Bucharest, Romania
Day 2: Bucharest to Brasov (via Bran Castle)
Day 3: Brasov to Curtea De Arges (via the Transfagarasan Road)
Day 4: Curtea de Arges to Dubova (and the Danube River)
Day 5: Dubova to Hunedoara (and Corvin's Castle)
Day 6: Hateg to Sibiu: 300 KM (via the Transalpina Road)
Day 7: rest day in Sibiu old town
Day 8 : Sibiu to Dalnic (and Fagaras Citadel)
Day 9: Dalnic to Cetatuia
Day 10: Cetatuia to Amphora Vama Veche (via the Calarasi-Ostrov Ferry)
Day 11: Vama Veche to Balchik (Bulgarian Black Sea Coast!)
Day 12: Balchik to Silistra
Day 13: Silistra to Bucharest (via the Calarasi-Ostrov Ferry, again)

Overall it was an excellent trip and we are looking forward to our next international motorcycle adventure and hopefully future trips to Eastern Europe.

Good job guys. Awesome
Thanks! We loved touring Romania and Bulgaria. Looking forward to finding our next excuse to visit Eastern Europe by motorcycle.
Awesome video guys. Very well presented and very informative. Bears were scary 🙂
Thank you!
Awesome trip, loved the storytelling and maps.
Thanks! It was a great trip!
Hey. how nice it is to see that you have enjoyed your trip to east eu
uropa.. it can do anything, have been around Eastern Europe many times, friendly people, lots of culture. and the food is just lovely. many thanks for a lovely film, should you ever come to Denmark, you are very welcome to write. Sincerely, René
Totally agree! And yes! Denmark is high on the list!
Most enjoyable vid. 👍👍
Romania is definitely a hidden gem for motorcycle touring, I spent two weeks doing a loop of the country in 2013 and loved it, I have been trying to get back there ever since, hopefully it will happen in 2023 and after watching this I want to get back there even more.
Eastern Europe is a fascinating place with so much diversity and a lot cheaper than the western part, the traffic is a lot less and places are less crowded in the east, so best not advertise that or it might spoil the charm.
Sorry for letting the secret out. But agreed, Romania is AWESOME!
Wonderful trip.
It definitely was. We look forward to getting back to Eastern Europe!
Hai ! You missed Sighisoara , salt mine Turda , Sarmisegetuza regia...
Guess we'll have to go back!
Hi! You missed one of the best roads for motorcycle… Lepsa , and also trip to Bucovina :)
Oh man! Guess we'll have to go back!
Νιce tour But is so bad feeling to have a Bmw that it cost 10 - 15 thousen and to have problems like this ... Keep riding!
It was an aftermarket part problem - and a small one at that. Just part of the adventure. The BMWs were great! And the tour was amazing!
