Overview

On this private walking tour, we’ll explore 25 of Bucharest’s top sights across three different parts of the city: the Old Town, Calea Victoriei and the Palace of Parliament.

No long academic lectures or information overload. Instead, you’ll discover the stories and context that help you understand what you’re seeing, from medieval Bucharest and royal architecture to communism and Ceaușescu’s transformation of the city.

We’ll see landmarks such as Stavropoleos Church, Cărturești Carusel, CEC Palace, the Romanian Athenaeum, Royal Palace, Casa Capșa, Macca-Villacrosse Passage and the Palace of Parliament.

Along the way, we’ll also talk about Romanian food, customs, architecture, local life, famous personalities and unexpected stories.
