Fantastic tour. Just the 2 of us and our guide. She was very knowledgeable, kept the perfect pace, and since we had done a little touring the day before, adjusted the itinerary accordingly. Highly recommend. Budapest is beautiful!!!

Perfect introduction to Buchaarest

Vlad our tour guide was very accommodating. We originally had a 1pm scheduled but did not realize how bad jet lag would hit us. He changed it to 5:30pm. It was a perfect time as the city comes alive at night. He was very informative and covered a good amount of history and ground and a very informative pace. I highly recommend!

Lovely

A small snafu to start when the local agency wasn't aware of our booking but our guide Claudia made up for it after being called in on an emergency basis to walk us around the Old Town and give us a great sense of the history of Bucharest in both medieval and modern times. Enjoyed the conversation as we walked and learned about each other's culture. Ended with a great lunch in a historic inn....good way to learn about the Old Town.
