Outstanding introduction to Bucharest. Ed was a terrific guide. Great storyteller. Would highly recommend this tour. Bikes are good. Interesting stops. Lots of opportunities to get great photos. No need for an ebike. Only one short hill. Very manageable.

Ed was a fantastic tour guide, perfect English, ready to answer any questions and extremely informative. Would highly recommend a city bike tour anywhere and our tour led by Ed was no exception. Communication was great and it was a lovely introduction to the city.

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!

Lucia was an excellent guide we had the best time! Would return and do again 100 percent because it’s an excellent way to see the city

Lucia was an excellent guide. She is extremely knowledgeable and provided us a detailed history of Bucharest, its culture, and people. Highly recommend taking a tour with her.

A great way to see Bucharest. Our guide was a wealth of knowledge about the history of Budapest. A must do tour

Excellent communication via whatsapp prior to the tour, confirmed that they have small frame bikes for petite adult and kids bikes. Health and safety works differently in eastern europe, so no obligatory helmets or rules around 10 year olds on bikes next to traffic - but that is the fun of it. My daughter loved biking amongst traffic and felt a huge sense of achievement. Lucia was extremely knowledgeable and took us around all the main landmarks with an open honest conversation about the life in the country. Talking about her own experience as a child in the communist regime was so much more authentic than any revised facts commentary. We cycled on a very hot day and water was provided. All bikes were well maintained, gears worked well and had baskets to keep our bags. All in all, a very enjoyable half a day.

Lucia was very nice and informative. Nice historical overview of the city. Not too much biking, but a lot seen.
Janey_B, Apr 2026
We thoroughly enjoyed our Bucharest bike tour. Daniel is an excellent, knowledgeable guide sharing relevant, informative facts and highlights. A bike tour tour is a wonderful way to experience Bucharest coving more ground than a walking tour would allow. Highly recommend!

Nice beer stop on route!
AIKATERINIIRO_K, Nov 2025
The bike ride lasts approximately 4 hours and it's an easy going path. Lucia, the tour guide, is really nice, very friendly, very knowledgeable and funny! Would definitely recommend this bike tour!Bucharest is a beautiful city!
Dave_o, Oct 2025
We had a blast and learned a semester’s worth of college level history/political science. Lucia is actually college educated on what she is talking about. She has obviously retained a great deal more than I ever did. The pace of ride and information was very comfortable. What a beautiful city to see by bike. We have done quite a few bike tours, and this one definitely stood out for it’s easily digestible content that provided so much perspective on the communist past, the Ceauscescu years, and the Roman/Ottoman influences that persist even today. We had walked around the day before, but would have missed so much had we not rode with Lucia. Great bikes, too! Thank-you for water, chocolates, and personal history!

Ian_M, Sep 2025
Nice trip, not to fast paced. Learnt a lot on the way. Our guide was great, very knowledgeable. A pleasant experience.
TomTierney, Sep 2025
Dan did a great job telling us about Romania's part in the history of the region and life in Romania while we pedaled through Bucharest, stopping at several important sites and churches. There was a lot of construction, we biked often in areas with pedestrians, and the city is not ideal for biking, but Dan did a nice job with us.
John_B, Sep 2025
E bikes are available. Helpful for older travelers. Great guide friendly and knowledgeable
Good English.
Redentor_R, Sep 2025
Great tour. Our guide Lucia was really good. Explained everything very well. She even gave us a chocolate at the end of the tour. Highly recommend tour.
Rich_F, Sep 2025
Wonderful way to see the important sights of the city at a slower pace. Additional, Edward, our guide, gave us interesting insights into the history, language, food and politics that have created modern day Romania.
I highly recommend taking this tour, it is excellent way to better understand Bucharest and the country.
Ronen_S, Sep 2025
We had an amazing 4-hour bike tour with our guide, Lucia, and it was truly one of the highlights of our trip! She was knowledgeable, friendly, and made the whole experience both fun and informative. The pace was perfect, and she always made sure everyone felt comfortable and safe while riding. Lucia shared fascinating stories and insights along the way that gave us a deeper understanding of the city, its history, and its culture.

Great experience...learned so much and saw everything...know where to go back to! Lucia is extremely knowledgeable and have a very personable experience biking together through centuries of human history and understanding the resilience of a people. It changed my view of Romania...what an interesting and fantastic place ...
Ted_S, Aug 2025
Great guide. Nice and easy ride and with many stops at historical sites. Got a short history lesson on pre communist era. Good value for the money.
Jessie_H, Aug 2025
Great way to see the city! The pace was good with plenty of time for pictures and insights from our guide Dan. The ride was pretty flat and not too strenuous which was good because it was hot, but we still covered a lot of interesting ground.
Glenn_K, Jul 2025
Can say enough great things about our tour guide Ed. He was courteous, fun, extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of history and culture. Start your journey in Bucharest with a tour with Ed and his company.
