Very interesting tour - I booked the discovery tour with Dana and I wasn't disappointed. We went to the major historical places in Bucharest and she learnt me a lot about the city and the country. She is a really nice and cultured guide, and she adapts easily to people's preferences. One snack and one drink are included in the tour. I strongly recommend!

Bucharest Discovery Walking Tours - We did this tour as the first tour of Bucharest. It was a very good introduction of the city. It had a good coverage of all the highlights. Bogdan is an excellent guide. His English is very good. Since he was a history major at university, he provided great explanation of the Romanian and Bucharest history but at the same time managed to keep it interesting. I highly recommend this tour and Bogdan as a tour guide ti anyone.

It was a fantastic walking tour, extremely professionally guided by Andra! - The tour, guided by Andra, was very interesting. She is an energetic and very friendly person with a really impressive knowledge on the country and city. With a true passion she was talking about the history of Romania and Bucharest, including the times of progress in 19th century's and the dark period of communism ended by violent events of the revolution in 1989. She showed us numerous fascinating places, usually not easy to find, as hidden behind ordinary-looking buildings. Thanks to her, we could find out a lot of information about the architecture of Bucharest and about the changes that the city has undergone throughout its history. Andra also talked about important and curious facts concerning the Romanian language. She encouraged us to ask questions and willingly answered to them. Listening to her, discussing with her and learning from her made us real pleasure. Thank you very much for that fantastic tour, Andra!
