5.00This tour was a very positive surprise. Our family joined it at the very beginning of our trip. For the rest of the journey, we were able to navigate Bucharest more stress-free and avoid the tourist crowds. It feels like, through the tour, we got to experience the very heart of Bucharest — its atmosphere and its places. During the tour, we heard historical facts but also personal stories. We also received plenty of extra tips about what special sights to see and where the locals eat… Right after the tour, we even found ourselves having lunch with the locals, affordably, in the most charming little place. It was also wonderful that the guide interacted with our five-year-old in such a great way.
Excellent service, we were late though to join

5.00Adrian mixes humour and history to make the walking tour interesting and truly delightful. The two hours passed by very quickly and covered a. Lot of ground, At the end the recommendations for local fare at non-touristy places was an added bonus. Do join this tour!

5.00The tour was really interesting, engaging and entertaining. We didn't notice how the time flew until we were done. I really recommend trying it out, speaking as a person who usually finds it hard to enjoy tours.
