The best ghost tour I’ve been on - I have probably been on a dozen ghost tours in various cities and this tour was the best one that I have ever been on. Our guide, Tudor, was absolutely amazing and a fantastic storyteller. He was able to tie in stories and landmarks from stops at the very beginning of the tour to the legends told at the end of the tour. These full-circle moments were so cool and it makes you appreciate how unique Romanian folklore and myths are.

Excellent, friendly and informative - Tudor, our guide was excellent. Friendly and informative. We learned heads of the traditions here. He was also telling us about witches, vampires and Strigoi. We visited a few haunted places as well, which intrigued me the most. I’d go again, if /when I come back to Bucharest.

Fantastic! - I really enjoyed learning about the folklore in the Romanian culture and additionally, the traditions surrounding their funeral practices. Tudor was an excellent guide and is so knowledgeable about all of the mythological beings. My favourite part was definitely the stories related to the 3 houses (Devil's house, Poltergeist house and Cat's House) super creepy

Stop and talked at various places about local folklore, witches, vampires etc. More factual and less gimmicky. - Got good meeting info on the day.
