• “Dimitrie Gusti” National Village Museum - Have you ever imagined strolling through a medieval village nestled right in the heart of a city? Begin your journey at The National Village Museum, a historical treasure in the midst of an urban landscape. This open-air representation of a traditional Romanian village is among the largest outdoor museums in Europe.

“The architecture of a country is, perhaps, the most accurate expression of its history” (M. Cantacuzino). The Village Museum offers a wonderful opportunity to explore the genuine Romanian village, featuring folklore elements and structures from all historical regions, dating back to the 17th century.

A private guide will lead you through the reed-roofed houses of the Danube Delta, the simple yet elegant architecture of Moldavia or Wallachia, and the intricately carved wooden facades of Transylvanian homes. Visitors can admire steep-roofed peasant houses, thatched barns, log cabins, watermills, windmills, wooden churches, oil presses, and much more.

• Art And Craft Calea Victoriei Bucharest - The next stop is a local art & craft shop, where everything is handmade. Here, you can appreciate traditional Romanian blouses known as “ie”, glass-painted icons, beautifully painted Easter eggs from Moldavia, renowned Horezu pottery from Wallachia, wooden masks, and trinkets from Transylvania. Additionally, there are Dracula-themed souvenirs, books, and traditional sweets like knot cookies or “chocolate nuts”.

• Old Town - Romania ranks as the world’s 11th largest wine producer, boasting over 2000 years of winemaking tradition. Understanding a region’s food and wine is essential to grasping its culture. Therefore, the final stop is at a local wine bar.

Whether a casual wine enthusiast or a seasoned connoisseur, visitors will delight in discovering the unique “terroir” of Dealu Mare, Romania’s most renowned wine region. Learn about the history of local wines and explore native Romanian varieties such as Feteasca Neagra or Negru de Dragasani. Enjoy three glasses of wine accompanied by a plate of traditional cheese & charcuterie.

After the wine tasting, the tour concludes, and guests can choose to linger at the wine bar or seek guidance from the tour guide for directions back to their accommodation or to the nearby Old Town area.
