5.00Bogdan was great! He showed us all over Bucharest. We were in a spacious clean van for the first 2 hours and were able to see the tourist attractions that are not as walkable especially with two kids (age 9 & 6). Then the last 2 hours we walked and saw all the important sites that we would have past if we were walking on our own. I highly recommend the tour!
