Bukarest im Kommunismus: Leben, Schrecken & Hoffnung

I am deeply disappointed with this experience; it is definitely not worth the price. The tour guide (I believe his name was Stefan) had a terrible attitude. The entire time he was rushing us and didn't give us enough time to actually enjoy the places we visited. The icing on the cake was when he called me just to yell at me because I decided to stay behind instead of returning with the group. Since I couldn’t enjoy the castles properly, I explained to him that it was my birthday and I wanted to stay longer to explore. He rudely snapped back, asking if I thought he was going to wait for me until tomorrow. Terrible service altogether. He didn’t explain anything well; we paid for a Spanish tour, but he spoke in English most of the time, and when he did speak Spanish, it was barely understandable. On top of that, he was rude and completely lacked empathy.

I really enjoyed the Bucharest Under Communism: Life, Terror & Hope tour last weekend and it was a really great experience. The tour was very interesting and well explained, with lots of insights into what life was actually like during the communist period. Also as a bonus we got overall tips for the city (where to eat, where to go to etc) The guide made the history easy to understand and engaging, sharing stories that you wouldn’t get just by reading or visiting on your own. It really helps you see Bucharest or Romania from a local.

Stefania was an incredible guide from start to finish! She communicated before the tour, met the two of us (no one else booked on) in pouring rain (our choice, we were unable to do any other day, though this was offered to us) and Stefania was so knowledgeable, professional and kind. The 3+ hours tour flew by and we had a sense of the city of Bucharest and its people that no other experience in our visit had provided for us. Thankyou Stefania!!

This was an absolutely phenomenal tour!!! Extremely well put together, very thorough, as complete as possible within the scheduled period of time (3.5 hours), extraordinary, informative, and detailed. All these presented by a very knowledgeable, kind, fun, very professional, passionate, and patient guide!!! We never expected to enjoy the tour so much !!! And on top of that, the tour price was amazingly affordable for this unique experience !!! Extremely grateful for the experience that Stefania provided!!!

Very good tour with Laura who did an amazing job at showing us around and displaying the city in an historical perspective. Really an eye opening experience! I do recommend :)

Laura was fantastic! She was so kind and shared great facts about Romania’s history. A perfect way to start our trip. Highly recommend!

This is a fantastic introduction to Romanian history and in particular the recent history under communism until the revolution in 1989. Tamar was knowledgeable and an excellent guide

We had already done the morning tour of the old city and in the afternoon we also did the “communism” tour. Laura was professional, nice and explained so many things that we did not know.

Laura showed us the highlights of Bucharest, we had a great and fun experience. Starting at the center and the end at the Parliament with some good tips about local food
