I guess this question could fall in both Romania and Ukraine forums but I'm looking for some general advice about the itinerary I've been planning. I have 2-3 weeks to spend in the Eastern/Far-eastern European region. The two things I really want to see are Chernobyl in Ukraine and Transylvania in Romania. Ideally I would like to fly into Kiev, spend a few days there and then make my way to Chernobyl for a one or two day tour. From Kiev, make my way to Romania...which is where I have questions. I know Wizz Air operates a flight from Kiev to Budapest. From there I could take a train to Bucharest or straight to Transylvania (Brasov, etc.) Are there other options on getting from Kiev to Romania?
Just a rough idea for itinerary:
Kiev-Bucharest
Bucharest - Transylvania
Trans - Budapest
Maybe Belgrade or Sofia in there somewhere?
Is this too much to do in 2 or 3 weeks? Ukraine might be a little out of the way....
Any options, opinions or advice with this would be greatly appreciated!
