Bogdan was absolutely fantastic, bringing us food from the moment we met! He was really knowledgeable about both food and the history and architecture of Bucharest. The tour was well paced and a great selection of food and drink, including catering to a vegetarian in the group, plus food allergies. I would highly recommend this tour.
Don’t miss it!!! It’s amazing!!

Great experience! The 5.5 hours flew by. Our guide was amazing and very fun to talk with. She had great knowledge on history and culture and of course food. We had high expectations for Urban Adventures as all their tours are fantastic - this was no exception. The food was really great and we felt we saw a side of Bucharest off the tourist path.
Awesome tour with Alex!

Good insight to Bucharest. The guide was very knowledgeable and good natured. Had to walk about an hour through the neighbourhood before we got the first food samplings. With the various food stops there was plenty to eat and drink. Very enjoyable.
