Bucarest alternatif: visite à pied de 2,5 à 3 heures (petits groupes)

Do this tour!!! Alex was a fantastic guide for this off-the-beaten track tour of Bucharest focused on its street art. Alex helped us learn so much about the history, art and politics of this city and Romania as a whole. It was fascinating! And very enjoyable. The tour took about 3 hours and Alex made sure we had chances to visit restrooms or get a coffee when we wanted, he also gave us a great recommendation for lunch near the end of the tour. 100% recommended!

Anca is a great tour guide. She is so knowledgeable about the street art and history. She made the tour very fun and enjoyable and was accommodating to our needs. I highly recommend this tour.

Street art tells a lot about a city recent history. Very interesting to discover the artists and the areas they reclaim. Great tour with Alex and Mara (and her dog 😉). It was a good mix of explanations from Alex, very knowledgeable, and of discussing between the us the meaning of some of these huge art pieces.

A lovely walk, with great company, exploring some of the fantastic murals and graffiti of Bucharest. Also a few interesting and challenging conversations that make you think.

My teenage daughter and I were lucky enough to be guided by Elena. A calm yet extremely personable and cheerful person who made us feel very at ease within minutes of our meeting. We felt immediately safe in her knowledgeable hands. The whole tour was interesting and incredibly enjoyable. Elena shared details of Romanian history and married them beautifully to the wide category of street art and its motivations. Along the way we were gifted so many insights into Bucharest and all its glorious differences, from the strong culture to the mundane. Honestly don’t miss out on this experience, we came away feeling like we had more than one foot in the city. Elena gave us the confidence to explore Bucharest like a local. Many many Thanks.

This tour was so fun and my favourite thing that I did in my short time in Bucharest! I was meant to be with a friend but plans changed so I rocked up on my own but Elena instantly made me feel comfortable about it. It was really easy to find her at the meeting point (on other tours I’ve sometimes found that difficult but not on this one) There was another couple on the tour so 3 of us plus Elena. Elena was so knowledgeable and insightful about all the art we saw on the tour. I am not well versed in art and interpretation but she gently encouraged me to examine the different works, say what we saw and how it made us feel, I loved that. The walking was not too much which was good as it was a very hot day but it seemed like we covered a lot of ground. I am not sure if it was part of the tour but we stopped to get some tasty treats and I enjoyed eating them as we walked around. I loved the art but my favourite part was the social housing street (I won’t say anymore so as not to ruin the surprise) There was toilet stops available whjch I appreciated and we were able to stop in shade to look at the street art which was great, Elena looked after us very well. I am so glad I chose this tour out of the tours I saw on Trip Advisor. It was fun, interesting and Elena was very friendly, charming and engaging, a perfect tour guide, thank you for showing me your beautiful city Elena! 🖤

We hade just one full day in Bucharest and chose this tour over the more "official" sites. We couldn't be happier with our choice! The group was small, we were five. Alex was a superb guide, insightful, engaging and accommodating. We got so much more than just to see the highlights of Bucharest street art: we learned about the history of street art, the local street art scene, the artists, the stories behind the works, etc. Alex also enlightened us on the general history of Romania, and answered any questions we might have about the country. Such an inspiring experience, sincerely recommended!

Had a great guide in Alex who shared the history of street art in Bucharest. I did the ‘usual’ walking tour a week ago and this an alternative tour that I strongly recommend. Alex showed us the ways to appreciate street art in a different light. And like all art, it’s up to our interpretation as well!

Very informative and an interesting way to gain insights into the current thinking, aims, passions, and strength of modern Bucharest. I really enjoyed this tour and highly recommend it to newcomers to this interesting country.

It was an excellent 3 hour tour with our guide Andra. We ve learned many things about the today's city art culture but also about 20th century local architecture and about the resent history of Romania. We definitely recommend it! Fenia , Stratis Greece.
