Excellent tour! - This was a wonderful tour! Vlad was very knowledgeable about the history of Bucharest and the stories behind the buildings and monuments we saw. It was definitely good to see the city with someone who really knows it to make sure we saw all the most important sights. Vlad was extremely friendly and we had a wonderful time

My friend and I did this tour on our... - <p>My friend and I did this tour on our first evening in town and it was a great way to start our trip in Bucharest. Our guide Gabriella was excellent and took us round the main sites in the old town, telling us about the history and culture of the city before visiting a local wine bar in the old town to try wines from the different regions of Romania. Gabriella was a great tour guide and it was really clear how passionate she was about her country. We had a really really fun evening and my friend and I would definitely recommend it.</p>

Great Wines and Conversation - After an initial hiccup where the tour guide misunderstood the meeting time, we managed to reschedule with Anamaria. Since we had already been in Bucharest for a week and already did a long tour of old town, we asked her to take us directly to the wine bar and talk about the wines and the regions. She is very knowledgeable about that and Romanian history. We ended up having a fantastic time just sitting in the wine bar and talking about history and many other things. We had a great time, the cheese board was excellent, and the wines were fantastic too.
The 4 rating is only because of the misunderstanding for the initial tour. Our experience would have been different if we had done this at the beginning of our trip as originally planned. Though we still very much enjoyed it.
