Adrian gave us an informative and funny guide to Bucharest, with emotive explanation of life as a child living in a the Communist era. Highly recommended and only 2 hours so not too intense for our teenage kids!

We loved this city tour visiting the most emblematic points of central Bucharest. Best of all is Adrian's look which is Romanian and relates everything from the perspective of a local.
