\u201cI want you to believe…to believe in things that you cannot.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n

\u2015 Bram Stoker, Dracula<\/p>\n

Hidden in a Transylvanian forest, perched atop a 200-foot-high crag at the base of the Carpathian mountains, stands the imposing Bran Castle. This national landmark is a picture portrait of Gothic mystery with soaring towers, looming turrets and a haunting presence. Cemented in the cultural zeitgeist by Stoker\u2019s infamous novel, the castle is now an immensely popular landmark known throughout the world.<\/p>\n

Yet with popularity, comes crowds. With this special Insight experience, you can bypass the regular tourists with an exclusive after-hours tour around the mysterious castle.<\/p>\n

After exploring eerie passageways and ominous chambers, celebrate escaping Dracula\u2019s lair with a wonderful and private Transylvanian dinner in Queen Mary\u2019s tea house. All of this and more, as part of Insight\u2019s 18-day Treasures of the Balkans<\/a> tour.<\/p>\n
