Abstract: The recent years recorded changes in the Romanian economic sectors. Tourism and transports are very much related. Following a research on each mode of transport development for the last two decades and more, with progress and shortcomings, one discover why and if was possible to support a modern and comfortable background for tourists traveling in our country. Interconnections between communities and regional development with transport infrastructure offer elements for a better understanding of the present conditions to benefit of a responsible tourism in close connection with transport levers. The development of different transport modes was made unequal in recent decades, influencing the opportunities both for foreigners to fully enjoy a trip or a longer stay in Romania and for local inhabitants when visiting as tourists different areas of their country. Results of the analysis help us point where to start for future policies in the connected fields.
