Enjoy an extra day in Romania when you visit the haunted land of Vlad Tepes III, known to history as Vlad the Impaler and movie lovers as Dracula with Kaiserslautern Outdoor Recreation!

After arriving in Romania, you will enjoy the biggest and best Dracula themed weekend in the KMCC, where you will spend four days exploring the Carpathian mountains of Transylvania, home of the infamous Wallachian prince. Arriving a day early and spending an extra night at a modern and luxurious five star hotel in the center of Brasov gives you more time to visit more sites associated with Vlad Dracula, including his birthplace and grave, as well as attending Romania’s premiere Halloween event, a spooky night tour of “Dracula” Castle, immediately followed by the Halloween party in the Gala Tent in the castle gardens! Your package includes four overnights in 4 and 5 star hotels, daily breakfasts, delicious themed dinners, admission to many attractions, as well as round trip airfare and an included airport shuttle service to and from Pulaski Barracks.

This spooktacular Halloween trip sold out for the last 3 years and is expected to do so again in 2018. Available spaces on this trip will vanish like a vampire does when it smells garlic. Reserve yours before they run out. Contact Kaiserslautern Outdoor Recreation today.
