Tour of Jewish Bucharest -- excellent

jerroldl613, Jul 2019
Emelia was an excellent, knowledgeable guide. Thank you for the tour of Jewish Bucharest. I learned a great deal. Only issue (for the tour organizers, not the guide), would be nice if all entrance fees were included in the price (as is the case with other viator tours).

From $71.58

per person

up to 24 hours before the experience starts (local time)

Book ahead!
On average, this is booked 12 days in advance.
