You can host a company's anniversary banquet within walking distance from the misterious Castle of Dracula, situated in Braşov and retreat to a private wine tasting in a remote yet comfortable mountain caban, high up in the Carpathian Mountains. You can take your business partners to see the world renouned unique Voroneţ Blue or the childhoof house of Constantin Brancusi.

"We've organized events in Romania for renouned companies such as Adobe or IBM and the general impression has always been of the best nature. Ranging from the attractivenes of the country itself to the impecable service and outstanding hospitality of the Romanian people, we've heard only the best from first time and returning visitors.”
Magda Neagu, Channel Sales Account Manager for Adobe recalls the event held in Romania in October 2006: „We held the Adobe Acrobat Reader 8 launch in a magnificent location in Bucharest – The Athenee Palace Hilton – through Ways Travel and their public relations partner, New Media Agency. It was an ample event, including seminars and conferences. Not only the logistics but the overall atmosphere were impecable and we're strongly considering returning to Romania for other events, maybe even something more on the leisure side.”
