Spent a beautiful day at...
Spent a beautiful day at the beach! Booked this private tour to Constanta to see a different part of Romania and spend some time at the Black Sea. Our driver, Christian, could not have been more accommodating letting us decide amount of time we wanted to spent at beach. After beach stay, he recommended excellent Greek restaurant for lunch and then gave use a tour of old town. Christian was knowledgeable of the history and friendly/professional in his overall approach. If you decide to take this tour be prepared for the long drive - about 3 hrs each way (which we knew) but we got to the Black Sea!!!!

Absolute must try if you're looking for a day trip from Bucharest
I would give this experience 6/5 stars if I could. Everything was above and beyond my expectations. Our guide Sebastian is a great driver with a lot of interesting insights about many subjects surrounding Romania and a great sense of humor. The locations selected for the trip were excellent and I felt like I was getting a great bang for my buck at all times

Chilling history and great storytelling!
I am a native of Bucharest living abroad for the past 3+ decades. I am aware of much of Bucharest's history, but not a whole lot of the spooky, gory and mysterious. So when I found this tour during my recent trip to Bucharest, I was intrigued! My son and I had a great evening delving into Bucharest's spooky history with our fantastic guide Tudor! He made the evening interesting and intriguing with his compelling story telling, leaving my son and I with quite a few stories to investigate on our own. Tudor was a phenomenal guide—incredibly knowledgeable, charismatic, and genuinely passionate about the local lore. Would definitely recommend this tour!

Daniel turned a tour into magical history!
First impressions are everything. Daniel started a tour with 10 of us and immediately took control with his personality. Mixing humor into over 200 years of history to kick off our tour was a great touch. It transformed the next 3 hours into a walk around old town Bucharest into a history lesson. The town has tragic elements mixed with an impressive culture. We had a wonderful time while learning history and seeing the true Bucharest. Cheers Daniel!

Ceausescuism close up and personal
My interest in Romania's political history was the main reason for visiting Bucharest, so I had already done my preparatory reading and YT-video watching. This guided tour added the understanding and the personal lived experiences on top of the facts. You really get impression of how the Romanians lived under Ceausescu's version of Communism by going to concrete locations where events happened or that represent characteristics of that political/economis/social system.
The guide (political scientist Andrea) also successfully mixed high level ideological parts of the story & route with low level concrete aspects of communist life, and tragic elements with the more entertaining. In addition you also get insight into post-revolution Romania. All in all a very recommendable activity for visitors to Bucharest.

Interesting trip. Would recommend.
Interesting tour with Christian who was a great guide. A tip for others travelling. Bring something warmer to wear than you think you need. At first the 55 degree temperature feels fine but after an hour as your body temperature drops more it gets pretty chilly.

Enjoy a day in Bulgaria
Gabriel our guide and driver was great. Made contact the night before on WhatsApp. Sent the exact location and photos as well as a picture of the minibus. The minibus was in great condition. We set off on time, a group of 6 people and a great day was had by all… Returned back safely to the same spot 12 hours later despite some long queues to cross the border. Gabriel was a great communicator, gave lots of helpful information.

We had an excellent day trip to Northern Bulgaria. Our guide, Serban, was friendly, professional, and very accommodating
We had an excellent day trip to Northern Bulgaria. Our guide, Serban, was friendly, professional, and very accommodating throughout the tour. We learned so much about both Bulgaria and Romania, and the experience was informative as well as enjoyable. Highly recommended for anyone wanting to explore the region in a day.

A safe, reliable, easy option for getting to and from the airport in Bucharest.
I booked cars from and to the airport at either end of my trip to Bucharest. The drivers were early both times, and got me safely to and from my hotel. It was such a comfort to not have to worry about finding a train or arranging an Uber, especially for my early morning flight out of Romania. I highly recommend this service!

Great intro to Bucharest
Had a 4 hour city tour with Toni interspersed between walking & being driven. Toni was an excellent guide & we ticked off all the key sights we wanted to visit. Especially enjoyed Revolution Square & understanding the detail around the overthrow of the communist government. Highly recommend this tour.

Not seeing something you are looking for?
Bucharest is a vibrant capital that boasts lively neighborhoods, grand architecture, and a strong connection to Romanian history and folklore. Bucharest day trips often take you beyond the city, with guided tours to landmarks such as Bran Castle—also known as Dracula’s Castle—and the medieval town of Brașov. Other options include food and wine tastings, pub crawls through the Old Town, or day hikes in the foothills of the Carpathian Mountains. Considering the depth of culture and nature you’ll find in and outside of Bucharest, these tours are not to be missed.
