Rigtig god tur, hvor de store linjer i Rumæniens og Bukarests historie blev trukket op. Et godt sted at starte sit ophold i Bukarest. Laura var god til at svare på spørgsmål, og komme med anbefalinger.

This was our first tour in Bucharest and it really laid the groundwork for the others that we took. It gave us an oversight and history of the city. Our tour guide, Stephan, was extremely knowledgeable and when he learned some of our personal interests (e.g. live theatre) he gave recommendations specifically about that. He also had visual guides to help give us more insight as to the Communist regime.

Laura was amazing! Passionate and knowledgeable. Took time to share photos of past events enabling one to visualize what it must been like in communist time.
