First time in Bucharest won’t be our last

Cynthia_T, Apr 2026

My husband and I visited Bucharest for the first time this winter. We figured the best way to learn about the city would be a guided tour and we’re glad we went with Anita! She was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. You can tell how passionate she is about the city and loves to share that passion with people who want to learn. Our group was small which made it easy to ask questions and recommendations. She recommended the best places for food! Next time we’re back in Bucharest we will definitely check out other tours Anita has to offer. Thank you for an enjoyable time, Anita!

Niceeeee

Izabela_S, Apr 2026

We did this tour a few weeks ago and it was absolutely wonderful. We’re really glad it was our first choice after arriving in the city, as we had family visiting from Germany for the Easter holidays and wanted to show them Bucharest in a meaningful way. The group was small, which made the experience even more enjoyable. Our guide, Angelica, showed us truly fascinating places and shared stories that were interesting even for us as Romanians who have been living abroad for some time. She also gave us many great recommendations for the rest of our stay. What stood out the most was her passion and professionalism , you could really feel how much she cares about what she does. We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Bucharest!

Excellent choice!

We did this tour together with a group of friends and colleagues visiting from different countries, on a weekend when we were looking for something interesting to do in the city and it turned out to be a great choice. The experience was truly special. We enjoyed discovering Bucharest through stories, architecture, and history, all presented in a very engaging and easy-to-follow way. Our guide made everything come alive, and we learned so much without even realizing how quickly time passed. We all agreed it was one of the highlights of the weekend and would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting the city!

Very informative tour, gives a really good overview of the city especially if you stay only a couple of days in Bucharest. The guide was great and knew a lot of things. We also enjoyed the food recommendations that the guide shared with us after the tour. I totally recommend this tour.
