  • Otopeni Intl Airport, Bucharest, Romania
  • Palace of Parliament, Bucharest, Romania
    In Bucharest City Tour at the Palace of Parliament or People’s House – you will learn how dangerous and damaging a totalitarian regime like communism can be for a nation. You will feel small seeing what pointless opulence and megalomania “the sleep of reason” can create. Imagine you have the chance to see the second largest administrative building on the planet, after the Pentagon, and that it will be an experience you will be able to share with your grandchildren.

  • Şoseaua Pavel D. Kiseleff 28-30, București 011347, Romania
    In Bucharest City Tour you will visit The National Village Museum – in one place, you will see an embodiment of Romanian traditions and you will learn what it meant for Romanian villagers to have built an ecological and sustainable environment in their backyard. You will also get a glimpse of their simple and modest lifestyle, in social and spiritual harmony with their surroundings. Book a private guide in Bucharest and you will enter the universe of the traditional Romanian houses, large or small, made of wood and adobe, but also stone and other materials, from all areas of the country. You will also see national symbols such as the mill or the wooden church and you will learn how these treasures of spirituality and civilization have kept us united for thousands of years, without needing to invade other nations.
  • Calea Victoriei, Bucharest, Romania
    On Calea Victoriei (Victory Avenue) – with your private guide you will be fascinated by the contradictions of history: on one side, you have the Royal Palace and on the other, the Central Committee of the Romanian Communist Party and the Revolution Square, where Ceausescu fled the country by helicopter. You will see old orthodox churches, enveloped in an aura of mystery, a music store, where you can find a large selection of music, as well as casinos, bohemian restaurants, museums, theatres, tea shops, retail stores and gift shops, where you can purchase souvenirs, and even the National History Museum and the Romanian Athenaeum, another Romanian architectural landmark, the CEC Palace and many others.
    45 minutes
  • Piaka Revolukiei, Bucharest, Romania
    Revolution Square, Bucharest In this private tour about the communism, you can be transported back in time to the moment where the dictator Nicolae Ceausescu was ousted, leaving behind the secrets of a great fortune and controversies about the state security service and his offshore accounts. As we mentioned earlier, when we reach the Senate Palace, you will see the building which used to house the Central Committee of the Romanian Communist Party and the place where the Revolution of December 1989 started – a major historical event whereby, through human force and sacrifice, Ceausescu was removed from power.
    30 minutes
  • Snagov Monastery, Snagov, Romania
    This is a surprise :) it's, 40 min outside Bucharest on an Island and it's the place where is the tomb of Dracula

  • Ceausescu Mansion, Bucharest, Romania
    The “Ceauşescu Mansion” was for a quarter of a century (1965-1989) the private residence of Nicolae and Elena Ceauşescu and of their children, Nicu, Zoia, and Valentin. Built in the mid-1960s and known at the time as the “Spring Palace”, the mansion was enlarged between 1970 and 1972. The preferred choice for the design of the Ceauşescu family’s residence was Aron Grimberg-Solari (born 1928). The architecture of the palace is complemented by landscaping conceived by the architect Robert Woll (who was also the main furniture designer for the house) and the landscape engineer Teodosiu.

Nuestro guía tenía un amplio conocimiento de la historia comunista del país y junto con su esmerada atención a nosotros, nos hizo el mejor tour que hemos tenido. Facilitándonos información extra de qué hacer otros días, qué visitar y qué no perdernos en la ciudad. Es realmente agradable contar con un guía que tiene un conocimiento tan extenso de muchos temas, con el que se puede hablar e ir un poquito más allá de la conversación vacía. Te aporta un contexto no sólo de la experiencia que estás disfrutando sino del país y sus costumbres. Altamente recomendable!

We had such a wonderful experience with booking the tour with Răzvan, he is very professional, flexible and SO knowledgeable. We came to Bucharest with a group of friends and booked an 8h tour so that we can see most of the main attractions. Răzvan came and picked us up from the hotel, he was very friendly and thoughtful. During the day, as we had been undecided about entry to certain attractions, he ensured he used his useful contacts to get us tickets, he was very accomodating with our needs (i.e. driving back to the hotel to get our passports so we can get into the House of Parliament). We cannot recommend him enough, overall we had a wonderful day with him, he is not only a tour guide but very passionate about history which really shines through and makes him one of a kind, if not the best tour you can get in Bucharest, all at a reasonable price! We look forward to returning soon for a more extended tour of the country, not just Bucharest! Thank you so much Răzvan, it was delight spending the day with you and learning all about Bucharest's history!
