5.00This tour was a good way to start my trip in Bucharest. I was able to get a good understanding of the layout of the main streets, where to find food and where to do all my tourist shopping. I learned a lot about the city, and it's long history. Hour tour guide Adrian was very nice and had lots of fun and cheese vampire jokes.
Perfect introduction to Bucharest

5.00Adrian 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!
An experience...
