TRIP FILE DATA

Bran castle is sold as Dracula’s and has almost nothing to do with him: Bram Stoker never set foot in Romania. What is here is the whole of Transylvania, fortified Saxon villages, and a building in Bucharest that is the heaviest on earth.

Travel notes for Romania

RO / FIELD NOTES
OVERVIEW

The lay of the land

Romania touches 5 countries by land, and that changes the planning: flying in and out of the same airport is a choice here, not an obligation.

STAYING CONNECTED

Data the moment you land

No counter to find, no passport to show to buy a SIM: an Ozu eSIM is on your phone before you take off. Plans run from 1 GB to 20 GB, valid up to 30 days, with unlimited day passes for longer stays. And because it runs on local networks, the bill at home never learns you travelled.

WHEN TO GO

Timing your trip

In Romania the calendar works the European way: July and August are the expensive, crowded part. November and February the cheap, cold one. The months in between are where the trick is.

MONEY

Paying your way

Take out cash less often and in bigger amounts: most ATM fees are charged per withdrawal, not per euro, so four small ones cost four times what one does. Use a machine attached to a real bank, in daylight, indoors if you can.

ENTRY

Documents & cover

The name on the ticket has to match the passport exactly, middle names and all. It sounds trivial until an airline treats a missing letter as a different person, and fixing it at the desk costs money.

LANGUAGE

Getting understood

English isn’t a given everywhere you’ll go. Download an offline map and keep a translation app on your connected phone: directions, menus, taxis and check-ins all get a lot smoother when you can point, read and translate on the spot.

When should I buy my Romania eSIM?

Any time before you fly. It installs in 2 minutes and stays dormant: it only activates when you connect to a network in Romania, so buying early costs nothing.
