Top Bucharest Bus Tours

This was quite a special experience that I highly recommend. The stories had a great impact and stayed with me, partly because of the well researched details of the stories, but mostly because Tudor is such a great storyteller. Thank you for an unforgettable evening ❤️.

This is such an informative and comfortable tour. Don’t get me wrong, the poverty, disadvantaged and challenges are hard to see. The tour guide was so informative and gave good context to what we were seeing and what different groups experience. I was surprised at how raw and real it is but learned a lot and in the context of how people get stuck/trapped and solutions are very complex.

This was simply an amazing experience. I was the only one on this tour and it was one of the highlights of my Bucharest visit. I was generous quantities of wine and the charcuterie board. There was no rush and I was given enough time to really enjoy this experience! Thank you so much for being an amazing host, and also for the spicy jam! Highly recommend this tour!

I took this tour with my mom. We’ve done many group tours in our travels together but I opted for the private tour this time and I am so glad we did. Sebastian was a wonderful guide with a wealth of information. He chose a delicious restaurant for our lunch and shared helpful insights at each destination. His car was clean and comfortable and his driving was safe. With the private tour, we felt like we had plenty of time at each stop to fully experience the place, and it was nice to be able to take bathroom breaks on our own schedule. Overall a wonderful day trip from Bucharest to experience a glimpse of Bulgaria and we’re very happy we did it!

Great day trip to northern Bulgaria out of Bucharest! Our visit enhanced our vacation and provided a more nuanced understanding of the region, including 20th century history and local interpretation of the communist era. Be prepared for several hours of driving, including some stop and go. Bathroom stops were available as needed. We strongly considered driving this ourselves, something we have done in other European countries, and at the end of the day we were very glad we went with a driver. Seban Riga was our guide and took incredibly good care of us, enriching the journey with both historical facts and local perspectives. He was energetic, engaging, and thoughtful to ensure the trip exceeded all of our expectations. It is wise to have some Euros on hand, as the modest entrance fees to some of the sites may not take cards. We also paid gratuity in Euro, and could have paid in Lei.

Group of 19 people. Driver was already waiting for the people in front of the Hotel. Two hour drive to the Salt Mines, with 30 minutes stop in a gas station with a Luca Store. The driver, that identified himself as driver not guide, was really helpful and spoke english. We left on time. Arrived at 10:30. The mine is worth it. We left at 13:00. Around the mine and inside there are places to eat. We arrived to the city around 15h, since the group chose not to stop in the gas station.

Great fun - but remember to take your driving licence or a picture of it as this is needed for the form. Also you are asked to take out extra insurance so just be aware there may be additional charges to pay. Other than that my partner had a great time driving round the streets while I stayed at the shopping mall - I had left my driving licence in the hotel! So couldn’t do the tour but was refunded the money for my part of the tour

Excellent small group trip with a friendly group of people. Matthew was a great guide. The Monestry and Palace were both worth the visit, but please take cash for entry to the Monestry and you will need to pay extra if you wish to take photos inside in both
