Travel from Bucharest's old streets to Constanța's Black Sea promenade, then follow the Danube from Tulcea to Sulina's riverfront. Four days link city walks with a CFR train, scheduled bus and Navrom passenger ferry. Arrange the dated connections and Danube Delta visitor permit separately; private speedboats, birdwatching tours and other delta excursions are optional, rather than part of the town-to-town journey.
