I'm a licensed tour guide in Bucharest, born and bred here. My tours focus on historical facts, peculiar trivia, fun stories and personal experience. My absolute favorite activity is showing people this overlooked corner of the world. I've been a tour guide for almost six years and I've met thousands of tourists. The experience that I've acquired over the years helps me provide a top notch experience for tourists.

If you want to explore most of Bucharest's iconic sites without having to take two or three different tours, this is the perfect choice! It includes Calea Victoriei, which covers the Romanian Athenaeum, the former Royal Palace, Revolution Square, the passage with colorful umbrellas, Capșa House, University Square, the CEC Palace, and the National History Museum.

By the end of the tour, you'll have a solid understanding of Romania's history and culture: how the country came to be, its transition from monarchy to dictatorship and from fascism to communism, the events during the communist regime, and how the Ceausescu era ended. You'll also learn about the origin of the nickname Dracula, the most notable Romanian dishes, additional suggestions for your stay in Romania, and much more!
