Adrian is a brilliant guide, he gave an incredibly informative tour and was hilariously funny! We were able to ask lots of questions and it was clear he knew so much about the history of Romania. A great way to start a holiday in Bucharest!
Josh, many many thanks! Was so great to show you around a bit, even if only some 2 hours. Best of luck to you and take care, Adrian
Adrian guided us through the old town and the newer center of Bucharest. A great way to discover Bucharest and to learn more about its history and the history of Romania as a whole. Adrian explains clearly and has often small groups which make it a more intimate experience. The tour takes about two hours.
Thank you very very much 🙏 Wishing you all the best!
