Bucharest Ghosts Stories and Mythology

Panayiotis_B, Aug 2026

One of a kind in the dark side of Romania

It was thrilling getting to know about stories, traditions and myths of Romanian ghosts, superstitions and witchcraft. Our host, Ali, was patient and informative, most of all engaging. She welcomed every question and provided meticulous insights on the stories as she highlighted skillfully each aspect of the stories. Would recommend it definitely to everyone interested in spooky, scary, dark side of Romania.

Dracula Castle, Peles Castle & Brasov-Private Tour from Bucharest

Gary_R, Jul 2026

Wild weather and great trip to Transylvania.

Radu was our driver and gave us great tour. He took us to the main attractions and let us decide how long to take at each site. We had time to walk around on our own. We had a wild thunder storm in the afternoon that blocked the main road from Brasov with a mudslide. Radu took us on another route through the countryside that most people don't see. He was very knowledgeable and friendly which made the day very enjoyable.

TikTok tour by car

I was disappointed that this tour was by car since the TukTuk was being repaired, but honestly it couldn’t have been a better tour! The guide, Alin, was a wealth of information about Romanian history and politics. I learned so much, and got a real flavor of Bucharest. I highly recommend this tour!

Amazing bike tour with Eduard

I have been on plenty of bike tours but Eduard is the best guide I have had! Super knowledgeable as he studied the Cold War in college, and is a an expert at all the histories of Bucharest. He was clear, concise and friendly. The bike tour was incredible as we got to see so many sights in 3 hours and I really loved how it starts at 6pm so we wouldn’t be too hot in the day time. I highly recommend this tour! Thanks Eduard for the amazing experience!

Castles of Transylvania: Private Day Trip from Bucharest

Thomas_G, May 2026

A Brilliant experience with Claudiu

We had excellent communication before the trip, including confirming the correct time to book tickets to Peles Castle, text updates for pickup, and an introduction to our driver, Claudiu. He met us directly at our hotel and we began the journey towards Peles Castle, stopping halfway for a coffee break. Peles Castle was absolutely beautiful and well worth the entrance fee. After the visit, we met back up with Claudiu and continued on to Bran Castle. While Bran Castle looks stunning from the outside, we found the interior a little underwhelming in comparison. Our final stop was Brasov, which is a truly beautiful place. We were recommended a fantastic restaurant called La Ceaun, the food and service were both excellent and we spent around 90 minutes there before heading back. There is quite a lot of driving on this tour, but Claudiu regularly offered to stop whenever needed and made the journey enjoyable with his knowledge, humour, and friendly personality. Overall, a great experience and highly recommended.

Bucharest Jewish Heritage | Holocaust Memorial | Private Car Tour

kathryn_b, Apr 2026

Extra Special in Every Way

Marius was the best tour guide I have ever had. He listened to our interests and was well prepared to make our jewish history tour memorable. We spent a great deal of time at the cemetery because my husband was very interested in it. We even saw the chapel and met the conservator who showed us the actual burial records (kept in large journals with one letter on each journal). Marius has maps and pictures on his tablet which enhance the experience. We saw Choral Temple inside and many other sites outside including the holocaust memorial. Marius took us to anything we wanted to see and we even went to a coffee shop and sandwich shop with the best bread in the world. The grand synagogue is closed for renovations but Marius gave us extra notice about it. What a wonderful way to see Bucharest!

Bulgaria - Private Tour - Veliko Tărnovo, Arbanasi, Rock Church

Stephanie_B, Mar 2026

Fantastic full day of sightseeing

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!

Life under Communism

Christopher_V, Nov 2025

Best tour guide we've had in years!

Cristine was a wonderful guide. Besides being very knowledgeable, her clarity of speaking English made the tour much better for me, as I am very hearing impaired and have some difficulty walking distances. When the tour stopped she always did so where I could sit or lean. Very few guides we've met (hundreds over the years) have been so accomodating. She is a remarkable guide.

Guided Walking Tour of Historical Bucharest

Matthew_T, Oct 2025

Very knowledgeable and lots of fun

Alina was a verifiable fountain of knowledge regarding the architectural, cultural, and societal history of Bucharest, Romania, the Balkans, Eastern Europe, Russia and their relationship to Western Europe and the US. She's very personable, has a great sense of humor, who challenged what we've been taught about the region. I feel fortunate to having her as our guide.

4h Bucharest Private Tour (2h by Car and 2h Walking in Old Town)

Michelle_M, Aug 2025

Driving and Walking tour with kids.

Bogdan was great! He showed us all over Bucharest. We were in a spacious clean van for the first 2 hours and were able to see the tourist attractions that are not as walkable especially with two kids (age 9 & 6). Then the last 2 hours we walked and saw all the important sites that we would have past if we were walking on our own. I highly recommend the tour!
