Hotel pick-up: 08:00 AM

Embark on an enchanting day trip from Iasi to the UNESCO Painted Monasteries, nestled in the picturesque region of Bucovina. Known for its rich cultural heritage, Bucovina is home to some of the world's most treasured religious art. Discover the vibrant frescoes adorning the monastic walls, and immerse yourself in the history and beauty of Voronet, Moldovita, and Sucevita Monasteries.

The journey begins with a visit to Voronet Monastery, often referred to as the "Sistine Chapel of the East." Marvel at the stunning frescoes that have made Voronet world-famous. The intense shade of blue, known as the 'blue of Voronet,' along with the remarkable western fresco depicting the 'Last Judgement of Christ,' adds to its allure.
