Nice brief old town tour, wonderful wines and charcuterie! Michael is so knowledgeable about the wines and history of Romania. We had a marvelous time!
Emma does a great job detailing the country and city history. The wine bar is a cool place with tons of history and delicious wine offerings! Highly recommend
This is an outstanding tour at a reasonable price. Our guide, Mihai, was very knowledgeable about the wines and the meats and cheeses were delicious. We had no idea Romanian wines were this good. But the best part was the knowledge and enthusiasm Mihai has for Romania and surrounding areas. His discussions and answer to our many questions motivated us to consider coming back on a tour he would lead in Bucharest and surrounding areas like Transylvania. What a blast! This wine tasting tour is not to be missed.
This was a great experience. In addition to the delicious wines, sausages, and cheeses, our guide Emma was very personable and knowledgeable and went above and beyond to make our experience memorable. We learned a lot about Romania and its recent history through her, and we highly recommend her as a guide for this tasting. It was our favorite experience of our honeymoon!
