ROMANIA WELLNESS ESCAPE - Thermal Waters • Salt • Mofettes • Nature • Culture

Romania Wellness Escape is an 8-day / 7-night wellness journey specially designed for travellers who prefer a comfortable pace rather than a traditional, fast-moving sightseeing tour with long days on the road and a different hotel every night.

The programme combines SPA, wellness and Romania’s renowned balneotherapy tradition with culture, nature, local gastronomy and authentic experiences.

The journey connects three of Romania’s best-known wellness destinations, each offering a different natural resource:

BĂILE FELIX – THERMAL WATERS

SOVATA – SALT WATER & THERAPEUTIC MUD

COVASNA – MOFETTES & MINERAL WATERS

The tour is suitable both for mature travellers and active seniors and for younger adults and couples seeking relaxation, pampering, SPA experiences and slow travel.

The programme is available in two categories:

COMFORT WELLNESS 3★ – designed for moderate budgets, combining good value with comfortable accommodation and access to wellness and balneotherapy facilities.

PREMIUM WELLNESS 4★ – superior hotels and services, enhanced SPA facilities and the possibility of including additional massages, beauty treatments and wellness rituals.
