We had an absolutely fantastic experience on our recent tour of Bucharest, thanks entirely to our amazing guide, Luicia! From start to finish, the tour was a highlight of our trip. Despite the challenging rain, snow, and cold weather, Luicia's enthusiasm never wavered. She was a ray of sunshine, ensuring we were comfortable and enjoying ourselves the entire time. Her knowledge of the city's history and culture was extensive, and she answered every single question we had with patience and expertise. What truly set this experience apart was Luicia's great sense of humour and engaging personality. She made the history and stories of Bucharest come alive, making the time fly by. It felt less like a formal tour and more like exploring the city with a knowledgeable friend. We highly recommend Luicia to anyone visiting Bucharest, especially first-timers! She is a true professional and a fantastic example of an excellent tour guide.

I really recommend this visit because you can understand the history of the city and of the Country. This helped me to appreciate even more the beauty of the monuments and the Rumanian culture. Lucia was a great tour guide, very knowledgeable, clear and very approachable.

Ed did a great job as our walking tour guide. We particularly enjoyed his taking time to answer questions and point out architectural facts about the buildings throughout the old town and within the city. We highly recommend this tour and guide.

As a local girl born and raised in Bucharest I booked this tour for my partner who is belgian. It was a pleasure to rediscover my city with Ed in this very rich tour we circled through architectural courrants, several historical periods sizzled with fun trivia. It was a tour that captures the very eclectical nature of the city. Thank you again! Elena And Gérald

Dan was full of knowledge of Bucharest! He shared stories, gave us the history of Romania, even let us listen to some Romanian music and songs. Very informative. Tour went longer than 2.5 hours but Dan was making sure everyone’s needs were met (bathroom breaks, breaks from cold weather, stops for coffee/hot choc). Really enjoyed this tour and learned a lot!
