Romania is one of Eastern Europe's most rewarding coach touring destinations, combining the medieval citadels of Transylvania, the painted monasteries of Bukovina, and the vast wetlands of the Danube Delta into itineraries that no other single country can match. Bucharest, the capital, sits at the hub of the national road network and is served by Henri Coanda International Airport (OTP), handling most international group arrivals. The country's mountain roads through the Carpathians are dramatic but require experienced drivers who know the seasonal closures and gradient restrictions.
Romania is an EU member and operators hold EU international transport licences, making cross-border runs to Bulgaria, Hungary, and Serbia straightforward. The country uses the Romanian Leu (RON) and has not yet adopted the Euro, so fixed-price quotes protect you from currency movements. Coach hire demand peaks in summer (June to August) for Black Sea coast resorts and Transylvania tours, and again in December for the famous Christmas markets in Sibiu and Brasov.
