• Palace of Parliament - On the Bucharest City Tour at the Palace of Parliament, also known as the People’s House, you will discover the dangers and destruction a totalitarian regime like communism can inflict on a nation. The sheer scale of pointless opulence and megalomania, born from the ‘sleep of reason,’ will make you feel insignificant.

Imagine visiting the second largest administrative building in the world, second only to the Pentagon, and having an experience you can recount to your grandchildren.

• Muzeul National al Satului “Dimitrie Gusti” - During the Bucharest City Tour, you will explore The National Village Museum, where Romanian traditions come to life. You will learn how Romanian villagers created an ecological and sustainable environment in their backyards and get a glimpse of their simple, modest lifestyle in harmony with their surroundings.

Book a private guide in Bucharest to delve into the world of traditional Romanian houses, whether large or small, made from wood, adobe, stone, and other materials from across the country. You will also see national symbols like the mill and wooden church, learning how these spiritual and cultural treasures have united Romanians for thousands of years without the need for conquest.

• Calea Victoriei - On Calea Victoriei (Victory Avenue), your private guide will reveal the historical contradictions: the Royal Palace on one side and the Central Committee of the Romanian Communist Party and Revolution Square on the other, where Ceausescu fled by helicopter.

You will encounter old orthodox churches shrouded in mystery, a music store with a vast selection, casinos, bohemian restaurants, museums, theatres, tea shops, retail stores, gift shops, the National History Museum, the Romanian Athenaeum, the CEC Palace, and more.

• Piaka Revolukiei - Revolution Square, Bucharest

On this private tour focused on communism, you will be transported back to the moment when dictator Nicolae Ceausescu was overthrown, uncovering secrets of great fortune, state security service controversies, and offshore accounts.

As mentioned earlier, at the Senate Palace, you will see the former Central Committee of the Romanian Communist Party, the site where the December 1989 Revolution began—a pivotal historical event marked by human courage and sacrifice that led to Ceausescu’s removal from power.

• Old Town - In the next stop, with your private guide from Nicolas Experience Tours, you will relive the past through the blend of mystery and contrasts in the Historical City Centre, starting with Hanul Lui Manuc, a massive fortified inn that served as a cultural and economic hub. Built around 1806 by Manuc Bei, one of the wealthiest landowners in the Balkans, it was a gathering place for merchants passing through Bucharest.

In this historic and cosmopolitan area, you will also find popular restaurants, museums, old and spectacular churches, and an experiential library where you can buy books, music, and other souvenirs, creating unforgettable memories for you and your loved ones.

• Snagov Monastery - This is a surprise :) It’s 40 minutes outside Bucharest, on an island, and it’s where Dracula’s tomb is located!
