During our June Romania trip we will have 2 full days in the Bucovina area to see the painted monasteries. I've been doing research online but was hoping to get some opinions on which monasteries should be at the top of our list? Also, are there certain towns we should make sure we visit? or other sites in this area other than the monasteries?
We are staying near Vama so I was thinking that one day we could do a loop:
Vama to Moldovita, to Sucevita to Arbore back to Vama. We'd then have a second day to see Voronet and Humor. Does this sound reasonable? What else should we see?
Which of the Romanian Painted Monasteries should be at the top of our list?

You'll basically see the essentials. It's getting old, but you might want to take a look at my trip report for our trip to Hungary and Romania; click on my name to find it.
Definitely Suceava and Voroneț, they're on the UNESCO list
All the monasteries you plan to visit are in UNESCO list, are beautiful and also the landscape is picturesque.
