Bucharest's Greatest Tour
Overview of the tour in Bucharest
Although this is a general tour, and you`ll see the same old beautiful buildings that everyone else are showing in guided tours, we try to make things differently. We do not focus on years, people, architects, styles... because we know that, by the end of the tour, most travelers won`t remember those. We try to tell you the story of Bucharest.
How the city appeared when Dracula made a palace here. How oriental it looked, with its Greek and Turkish influences. How the old town became a merchant`s place, and how the old inns and and monasteries were replaced by the beautiful French architecture of the late 1800s and first half of the 1900s. How the communists wanted to destroy the old beautiful buildings of the past. This is what you`ll remember, the general lines in which this city developed and got to be as it is today.
Our guides put a lot of effort into making this tour as great as it is. The recommended tip for their effort is 20 euros/person.
The tour starts at 10.00.
