5.00We had a fantastic time with our guide Ovidiu. His detail and story telling really helped us understand the history of Bucharest and Romania. On day 2, we took a private family trip to Pitesti and because of his research was able to find evidence of a relative in the city. Ovidiu’s stories were great and he is adventurous, willing to do what was needed for us to enjoy the tours. Highly recommended !
Wonderful custom tour

5.00We originally booked a private tour with Bogdan in 2020, just before Covid cancelled all plans. He stayed in touch, and we re-booked out tour. Really glad we did. He provided us with a customized car and walking tour of Bucharest and we were totally delighted. Felt like we got to "see it all" yet know there's so much more we need to come back for. Great English-speaking guide, with in-depth local knowledge. Happy to share information and personal experiences. Feel like we have a better understanding of Romania and its people, especially now with the Ukrainian-Russian war just across the border. Great tour of a beautiful city. Definitely would like to come back for a longer visit.

5.00Outstanding guide who answered questions about everything that I asked him.All of the Churches that we visited were incredible and his knowledge of the art work and meanings was fantastic. As this was a private tour we concentrated on the various religions in Bucharest which I found so interesting. Thank you for a wonderful morning walking and learning about Bucharest.
Excellent Experience. Highly Recommended

5.00I visited Bucharest first time for work and good fortune that got half a day to myself during this trip. Reached out to a few tour providers at very short notice but Bogdan accepted. He was very swift in responding to email and text messages. Having done a couple to such tours in other parts of Europe, I would rate this one at the very best. There are a few reasons. Firstly, the Bogdan was extremely flexible and could easily get a pulse of what are my areas on interest and focused more on it. He went out of the way to ensure best experiences. He clubbed few surprises in the OLD TOWN and REVOLUTION SQ area which I wasn't even expecting- It was over and beyond surely. Secondly, having visited first time to Bucharest, I was oblivious to facts of such a wonderful city which is full of heritage and character. Will surely come back with family too !! Thank you
