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. 90 minutes
Şoseaua Pavel D. Kiseleff 28-30, București 011347, Romania n 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. 45 minutes
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
Old Town, Bucharest, Romania In the next location, your private guide from Nicolas Experience Tours, you will have the chance to relive the olden days through a blend of mystery and contrasts on the streets of the Historical City Centre, starting with Hanul Lui Manuc, an immense fortified inn which served as a cultural and economic center back in the day. It was built around 1806 by Manuc Bei, one of the wealthiest landowners in the Balkans, and it was where merchants passing through Bucharest would get together, as just a part of the colorful crowd that populated the historic inn.
In this historical and cosmopolitan area, you will also find, in addition to the most popular restaurants in Bucharest, museums, old and spectacular churches, and an experiential library, where you can purchase books, music and other souvenirs that will make for an unforgettable experience for you and your loved ones. 45 minutes
Ateneul Roman, Bucharest, Romania A concert hall in the center of Bucharest, Romania, and a landmark of the Romanian capital city.

Our private tour of Bucharest was a perfect 4 hours with our tour guide Dan. An on-time and friendly greeting at our hotel kicked off a pleasant early-morning walking tour of Old Town where we began to learn about the rich and also challenged history of this country. Visiting a Christian Orthodox church during their Sunday service was an unexpected treat. On the driving tour of the city we visited every key landmark, including Parliament, which is a sight to behold. A relaxing walking tour of the Village Museum was so interesting to see replica/original homesteads from every part of Romania — from the countryside to the coast. A stop for some exquisite eclairs and coffee at a cafe was appreciated before closing with stops at the Nicolae Ceaușescu museum and the Central Committee building where we could further reflect on the past politics and struggles this country and its people faced for many years. Dan had a first-person perspective and was so incredibly knowledgeable about the city, country and its culture. And, he sent us off with a fantastic lunch recommendation at the City Grill in Old Town. Don’t let the name fool you — it’s 100% authentic Romanian food; and, it was delicious. We highly recommend this tour and Dan as a tour guide!
