• “Dimitrie Gusti” National Village Museum - Have you ever imagined strolling through a medieval village nestled within a bustling city? Begin your journey at The National Village Museum, a historical gem in the heart 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 glimpse into the authentic Romanian village, featuring folklore elements and structures from all historical regions, dating back to the 17th century.

A private guide will introduce you to 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. Marvel at steep-roofed peasant houses, thatched barns, log cabins, watermills, windmills, wooden churches, oil presses, and more.

• Art And Craft Calea Victoriei Bucharest - The next stop is a local art & craft shop, where everything is handmade. Admire 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. There are also 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 appreciating its culture. Therefore, the final stop is at a local wine bar.

Whether a casual wine enthusiast or a seasoned connoisseur, you’ll delight in exploring the unique “terroir” of Dealu Mare, Romania’s renowned wine region. Discover the history of local wines and explore native Romanian varieties such as Feteasca Neagra or Negru de Dragasani. Enjoy three glasses of wine paired with a selection of traditional cheese & charcuterie.

After the wine tasting, the tour concludes, and you may choose to linger at the wine bar or request directions from your tour guide back to your accommodation or to the nearby Old Town area.
