First time in Bucharest won’t be our last

5.00My husband and I visited Bucharest for the first time this winter. We figured the best way to learn about the city would be a guided tour and we’re glad we went with Anita! She was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. You can tell how passionate she is about the city and loves to share that passion with people who want to learn. Our group was small which made it easy to ask questions and recommendations. She recommended the best places for food! Next time we’re back in Bucharest we will definitely check out other tours Anita has to offer. Thank you for an enjoyable time, Anita!
Niceeeee

5.00We did this tour a few weeks ago and it was absolutely wonderful. We’re really glad it was our first choice after arriving in the city, as we had family visiting from Germany for the Easter holidays and wanted to show them Bucharest in a meaningful way. The group was small, which made the experience even more enjoyable. Our guide, Angelica, showed us truly fascinating places and shared stories that were interesting even for us as Romanians who have been living abroad for some time. She also gave us many great recommendations for the rest of our stay. What stood out the most was her passion and professionalism , you could really feel how much she cares about what she does. We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Bucharest!
Excellent choice!

5.00We did this tour together with a group of friends and colleagues visiting from different countries, on a weekend when we were looking for something interesting to do in the city and it turned out to be a great choice. The experience was truly special. We enjoyed discovering Bucharest through stories, architecture, and history, all presented in a very engaging and easy-to-follow way. Our guide made everything come alive, and we learned so much without even realizing how quickly time passed. We all agreed it was one of the highlights of the weekend and would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting the city!
Very informative tour,...

5.00Very informative tour, gives a really good overview of the city especially if you stay only a couple of days in Bucharest. The guide was great and knew a lot of things. We also enjoyed the food recommendations that the guide shared with us after the tour. I totally recommend this tour.
Great tour

5.00A really great tour, it felt more like walking through the city with a friend. We were a small group of five people, which made the experience even more enjoyable. Bogdan, our guide, answered all our questions and gave us great recommendations afterwards. It was the perfect introduction to the city. I’ve done other tours before, but what made this one stand out was the guide’s genuine passion , both for his work and for the city itself. The meeting point was very easy to find, and the tour was thoughtfully designed. I highly recommend it, whether you’re visiting Bucharest for the first time or you already live here and want to rediscover it through fresh eyes.
Very nice tour with good food

5.00I booked the discovery tour with Dana and I wasn't disappointed. We went to the major historical places in Bucharest and she learnt me a lot about the city and the country. She is a really nice and cultured guide, and she adapts easily to people's preferences. One snack and one drink are included in the tour. I strongly recommend!

5.00We did this tour as the first tour of Bucharest. It was a very good introduction of the city. It had a good coverage of all the highlights. Bogdan is an excellent guide. His English is very good. Since he was a history major at university, he provided great explanation of the Romanian and Bucharest history but at the same time managed to keep it interesting. I highly recommend this tour and Bogdan as a tour guide ti anyone.
It was a fantastic walking tour, extremely professionally guided by Andra!

5.00The tour, guided by Andra, was very interesting. She is an energetic and very friendly person with a really impressive knowledge on the country and city. With a true passion she was talking about the history of Romania and Bucharest, including the times of progress in 19th century's and the dark period of communism ended by violent events of the revolution in 1989. She showed us numerous fascinating places, usually not easy to find, as hidden behind ordinary-looking buildings. Thanks to her, we could find out a lot of information about the architecture of Bucharest and about the changes that the city has undergone throughout its history. Andra also talked about important and curious facts concerning the Romanian language. She encouraged us to ask questions and willingly answered to them. Listening to her, discussing with her and learning from her made us real pleasure. Thank you very much for that fantastic tour, Andra!
