Dusty Dacia tour in June - We had lovely experience. We were group of 18 people from all around the EUROPE. Great way to experience Bucharest and learn about the history, meanwhile visiting "Best Spots" in the city. Drivers were very professional with good English, trying to accommodate individual & groups wishes. Unique group experience, easy logistic & right timing :)

A unique and fun way to discover Bucharest! - We had an amazing time exploring Bucharest with The Red Patrol! Driving through the city in the iconic Dacia cars was such a fun and original experience. The vintage Dacias were absolutely stunning — perfectly preserved and in amazing condition. It was a real thrill to try them out and drive them ourselves! Serban was a fantastic guide — passionate, knowledgeable, and full of great stories that brought the city to life in an unexpected way. It felt like a journey through time, but with a playful twist. Highly recommended for anyone looking for something different and memorable!

Unique adventure in Bucharest! - A friend who lives in Bucharest recommended this tour to us. Bucharest is an interesting city, and it really helps to have someone explain it. The tour was fantastic! The car was fun, the stops were well chosen, and the guide knew so much. I feel like I understand Romania’s history and the communist period much better now. We also saw some really interesting neighborhoods and architecture. Our guide never rushed us, answered all our questions, and was very helpful.

Bringing history to life - A special experience to be driven in a 70s Dacia around the major sites of Bucarest with Serban’s expert and engaging telling of the recent history of Romania, with the focus on the Communist era. We learnt so many things. The Dacia was a warm refuge on a chilly morning, and we really appreciated the photos and being dropped off near Ceru cu bere. Thank you!

Highlight of our trip! - This tour truly was the highlight of our trip in Bucharest! As five guys from Australia that didn't know much about Romania's rich history, this tour was perfect for us. The cars, the stops you make on the tour and the guides are incredible. Will recommend this to anyone travelling to Bucharest, especially if you want a fun, informed way to learn about the country and city with a very knowledgable guide!

Great experience! - We had a great tour and learned so much about the history of Romania. Riding in the Dacia’s really enhanced the experience. We also appreciated getting the “newspaper “ detailing the facts of everything we had observed and learned about. They even came and picked us up! You won’t regret taking this tour!

Awesome experience - Booked this tour for my foreign boyfriend, and I think having him drive a vintage Dacia and hearing the story of Communism while immersed in the most ubiquitous car of that era (for Romania) preemptively solved most arguments that will come up in our relationship due to cultural differences! He had a great time, but so did I, I learned some things I had not known before and I got to drive around in a car that smelled just like my grandfather's car. Talk about a trip down memory lane. If you're in doubt, don't be, this is an awesome experience to have!

Amazing ride in Dacia 1300 - We had an amazing experience with a vintage Dacia 1300 for my father's birthday. Stefan was a very good guide who presented us the history of the car models. The car looked and felt great to be in and to drive. For someone interested in car history, this is the perfect tour!
