Additional details
Romania has four distinct seasons, with freezing winters, and scorching summers. Mountainous areas and the northern part of Romania, such as Maramures and Bucovina tends to be colder, while the southern region (Bucharest, Black Sea Coast) can be incredibly torrid, especially in the summer.
Each season in Romania has its own unique charm — it all depends on what you want to experience during your time in Romania.
The climate from January to March is incredibly frigid — which makes it ideal for winter activities. There are several ski resorts in Romania. If you’re doing a tour of the medieval castles during this time, the temperature sets the mood. If the dreary cold gets you down, don’t fret! Warm yourself up with a piping hot bowl of soup.
In April, the spring blossoms bring new energy and color to the country — especially after all that snow! Meadows, gardens, and hills are colored with the flowers, perfectly complementing the Easter celebrations that happen throughout the region.
May in Romania is notorious for rain. Visitors may actively try to avoid this climate, but this time of the year is magical, as that’s when the birds start to stir at the Danube Delta.
June to August marks the most popular time for tourists to visit Romania. Be prepared for the sweltering hot weather — especially if you’re in the southern region. This is the best time to hike the Carpathian mountain range — the weather is much milder up there, and it’s the perfect way to escape the bustling cities!
If you’d prefer to escape the crowds, September to October is a great time to visit Romania. You’ll also get to witness autumn in full swing around September.
There is no “best time” to visit Romania — it all depends on what your curiosities are, and which parts of the country you want to discover! From skiing, to kayaking, to walking and hiking, each season offers a different aspect of what makes Romania so unique.
Though they are formally part of the European Union, Romania has yet to adopt the Euro as their currency, instead using the Romanian ‘lei’ (often signified as RON). The lei is a relatively stable currency, usually in the area of 4 lei for $1.
This makes Romania a cost-friendly European destination, as a meal can be anywhere from $5-$10, and beer and wine are often just $2-$4.
Prices are higher for tourist-heavy activities like visiting the castle and ‘traditional’ dinners in big cities, but on the whole you can stretch your budget a lot farther when traveling in Romania than in Western European countries like Switzerland.
For the most part, Romania is a safe country. In smaller towns and villages, the biggest hurdle to feeling completely comfortable will be the language barrier, as many older Romanians may not have a strong grasp of English. In major cities or top tourist sights, expect English in abundance, as well as police presence.
Overall, transportation is safe, but make sure you check your meters if you’re traveling by taxi. Scams and rip offs are rare, but if you ever encounter a driver who refuses to use a meter, there are several other transportation options, such as the train, bus, or Uber in the cities.
Of course, as with visiting any foreign country, be careful with your valuables and watch your pockets. With the proper precautions, you should be good to go.
While Romania is welcoming for all kinds of travelers, those who love to immerse themselves in new cultures and history will greatly enjoy Romania. Romania has also become a top spot for music festivals in the summer months.
