Nice tour and very knowledgeable tour guide

A nice tour with a great tour guide Cris. He makes an impression of a man who has an answer for every question with a good sense of humor. I honestly advise this tour everybody who has never been in Bucharest before and want to receive the general overview of the city.

Fabulously knowledgeable

Our tour leader was amazing! She was so knowledgeable and personable! Could answer all the questions that we didn’t have because she was able to describe the history and facts in such detail. Definitely recommend going on this tour if you need a re-lesson on the history of Bucharest including the communist influences, pop culture, and the fall and rise of political leaders! Thank you to Alex or driver for the great tunes and Rodica for her wealth of knowledge.
