Highlighted reviews from other travelers
A really well spent day in the company of Octavian. Under his leadership, he passed on a wealth of incredible knowledge about the history of Romania. A great presenter with a natural flair for doing so. A truly enlightening day and delighted with all aspects of the service. Would highly encourage and recommend this fascinating tour
We're grateful for the moment we decided to join this tour. Our guide, Daniela, showed not only great knowledge but also a true passion for sharing it. She was thoughtful in telling the story not just as it happened, but in reminding us—through concrete examples—that everything comes down to the people who make history or simply have to live through it. Each and every question was gladly received from Daniela, and then answered with precision. Walking around the city again after the tour allows you to see it with new, more aware eyes—and probably to appreciate it even more. Needless to say, highly recommended.
