Bucharest Food Tour

I love food walking tours and this one was very well done. The guide was enthusiastic and very friendly and told us about Romanian and Bucharest history, showing us important and/or interesting sights in the city and linked them to the people's views, which I was very interesting. In-between we made several food stops and the guide told us about the food culture (traditional as well as modern) and how it is connected to history. The food was yummy - you should really head the advice and bring an empty stomach! We were also sent a list of recommendations afterwards. I would definitely recommend this tour.

Andrea is wonderful, warm, and always smiling, with a lot of love and passion for helping us get to know Bucharest and its history, as well as introducing us to interesting places to eat. She is very articulate, pleasant, and engaging. I highly, highly recommend her.

Andrei is the real deal. As two guys on a weekend trip to Bucharest, we weren't sure what to expect from a "tipsy history tour" – but this ended up being one of the highlights of the whole trip. Andrei has a genuine passion for his city and knows how to balance history with a great night out. The traditional bars he took us to were hidden gems we would never have found on our own – authentic spots that felt nothing like the tourist traps in the Old Town. The local drinks (palincă, vișinată) were a bonus. Highly recommend to anyone visiting Bucharest.

I first joined Andrei on the Tipsy Tour and enjoyed it so much that I decided to book another tour with him. Best decision ever. This food tour was amazing, with a great mix of food, history, and culture. The stories were fascinating, and the food stops were so good I had to come back for more.

Definitely one of the best tours I’ve ever been on! Andrei is a fantastic guide and storyteller who makes history interesting and fun. The evening felt very social, like hanging out with friends from all over the world, and the drinks spots were a real highlight. His recommendations after the tour were incredibly helpful too.

Ich habe schon viele Touristen gemachte, die meisten waren sehr gut- aber diese ist die Beste! Man kommt an abgefahrene Orte mit leckeren abwechslungsreichen Getränken und super Essen. Andrei beherrscht die Gruppendynamik wie ein alter Freund, schließt jeden mir ein und sieht für einen unbeschwerten Abend. Die Informationen zu Land und Leuten hat er hervorragend aufbereiteter und trägt sie spannend und unterhaltsam vor. Volle Empfehlung und vielen Dank, André!

There was a lot more history than i expected and i thoroughly enjoyed it. I found it to be educational and eye-opening to someone who is visiting Bucharest and Romania for the first time and knew very little about its storied past other than the world-class gymnasts they seem to effortlessly produce. The stories behind some monuments and relics are poignant. The food stops were good too! Highly recommend this tour.

✨ You don’t have to take my word for it — but if you want a new city or even your new home to truly come alive, meet the locals and follow them into a small, cozy café. You sit there, tasting something sweet, and suddenly realize — yes, this is life. And gratitude — right here, right now. 🍰 🎒 This time we decided to go beyond the usual sightseeing and joined a culinary tour through GuruWalk. I’ve always loved free walking tours — where people don’t try to sell you anything, but share their city with love. And as someone who also works with people, I can’t pass by such beautiful examples of genuine human connection. And that’s exactly what we found with Andreea @matees_andreea — young, humble, and full of that inner light that makes you feel instantly warm. She led our food tour through Bucharest’s historic center, but it wasn’t just a tour — it was a little adventure, filled with the aroma of coffee, freshly baked bread, and stories told straight from the heart by a true professional. We wandered through the city center and old town, listening to stories about monarchy, communism, people, and the flavors that have survived across eras. And at one point, I caught myself thinking — it’s love for what you do that makes a person truly beautiful, successful, and happy. 💫 So today, my special gratitude goes to Andreea — for doing her work with a smile, with soul, without pretension, and with deep respect for her travelers, her city, and her craft. If you ever find yourself in Bucharest, look for her tours — because in every word she speaks, the city itself comes alive. When you do what you love, even a simple walk becomes therapy — and every dessert becomes part of your spiritual practice. ✨

How often do you have a tour guide with several university degrees, including a masters in Eastern European history giving you a “free “tour of an amazing capital city? Andreea was fantastic! I have participated in dozens of this type of Tour and she is among the very best. I would highly recommend one of her many styles of tours.

I had an incredible experience on this Bucharest food tour! Our guide, Andrea, made the day truly special. Not only did she take us to some fantastic local spots with delicious recommendations, but she also brought the city’s history to life in such an engaging way. Andrea has a Master’s degree in Romanian history, and it shows—her knowledge and passion for the city gave so much depth and context to everything we saw and tasted.

We joined a free tour with Andrea, and it was absolutely fantastic! She gave us a fascinating insight into traditional Romanian cuisine, explaining the origins of each dish with plenty of historical context. Her storytelling made history come alive, and her passion for her country’s culture was truly inspiring. We learned so much and tasted our way through Romania’s heritage at the same time. 100% recommended!

History made fun + social interaction + great local drinks. What's not to like? I had a marvelous time on this tour, as it is a social experience that seemed aimed not only to introducing us to the history and drinking spots of the city, but as well aimed at helping travellers make new friends. I would love to go again, next time I'll find myself in Bucharest
