EXCELLENT SERVICE

Half day Tour was excellent organized, our tour guide - Robert - was very well informed, very friendly and did his best in order to keep us satisfied. The clerk office was really very kind and helpful and all the suggestions (for example, where to eat, to make exchange) were proved to be more than right. Mr. Tripp won our trust and we recommend it for your daily trips or tours!!!

A most enjoyable tour of the main sights of Bucharest by mini bus. We particularly enjoyed the visit to The Village Museum. Our guide (think it was Monica) was excellent. She spoke fluent English and gave us lots of interesting information about the city's history. Highly recommended.

We were very pleased to learn so much about the history of the city and it's excesses and deprivations in the communist era - quite mind-blowing. It was good to have the car to transport us to the various sights, allowing us to see more, including the charming village museum. Andrea was an ideal guide and also recommended other areas to investigate as well as good places to eat.

Easy to find the tour office which was fortunate as it was raining. Some of the time we were standing in the rain trying to see the attraction and hear the explanation though the guide did his best to find shelter. The missing star would probably have been given the next day - blazing sunshine.

Definitely worth it!

Christian, our guide, was very knowledgeable and it was obvious he loves his city and country. He was so interesting to listen to as we drove from place to place. And as we visited each place, he was happy to answer any question and never seemed to be in a rush. It was a very relaxing day for seeing so many things. I highly recommend this tour to get a good layout of the city and learn a lot of history before you set out on your own to explore Bucharest and the rest of Romania on your own.

Beautiful Bucharest

Our driver Daniel picked us up on time at our hotel and he was very pleasant and knowledgeable. Bucharest is quite beautiful and the good weather that day only enhanced the tour. I have 1 suggestion for improving the tour though, provide drinking water for the participants, walking around for over 4 hours without drinking something makes people feel more tired, including the driver/guide.

A great tour to get a sense of the layout of the city of Bucharest. We stopped at all the famous landmarks and were given a background on the history of this amazing city. The tour guide and driver were knowledgeable and kept the afternoon entertaining with their banter.
