Catalin was an excellent guide for our small group. Our tour of the Parliament Palace and Ceausescu House was highly informative, educational and entertaining. Catalin has an amazing energy, charisma, knowledge and experience of Bucharest and excellent memories of the Communist and revolution times which really brought the times to life. That his knowledge came from his lived experience made it real. As I was in Prague at the Revolutionary times, and watched the Bucharest revolution on TV, it was very interesting to talk with Catalin about the different lives in these cities at the time. I can't recommend Catalin enough and will especially look for him the next time I am in Bucharest.

Perfect combination of activities - flawlessly planned by Catalin
We had an amazing experience with this combination of 2 tours. Catalin picked us up directly from our hotel and took us to Parliament Palace. On our way, he explained lot of insight information about the palace, the city itself and all this kind of information about Bucharest that someone visiting this beautiful city as a tourist, would love to hear. He even found a perfect spot for photos, stopped the car and took a photo of us. Everything was very well prepared time-wise. Then we had the tour, in a very small private group of 7 people in total. The tour was amazing and we entered all the rooms that can be visited in a VIP manner.
After the palace of parliament tour. Catalin picked us up again and took us to Ceausescu House, where another tour was scheduled for us, to join an English tour of the house. On our way from one place to the other, Catalin continued providing interesting information about the city, in a very engaging and friendly manner. He waited for us for the tour to finish (well worth it, please include it in your visit) and then he went the extra mile. We wanted to continue our walk in a nearby park, rather than being transferred to the hotel again. Catalin gladly accepted this request and not only he left us in the spot to start our walk in the Herastrau park, but he explained with very clear instructions the best way to walk through the park, so that we could see the best part of it and then easily get off the park in a convenient place to take the Metro and continue our walk.
So, Kudos and million thanks to Catalin, for making this experience unforgettable. I can only highly recommend this tour, ask for Catalin and you will remember me!

Luxury and everyday life
Our tour guide Catalin told us an incredible number of interesting details about Ceaucescu. He was funny and very informative while doing so! And his service was incredible—being picked up by car directly from the red carpet in front of the huge parliament building felt very statesmanlike ;) We can recommend visiting the parliament and residential building from the inside and experiencing the contrast between megalomaniacal luxury and communist everyday life to everyone!!!

Great experience
Fantastic experience, to get to know two of the most emblematic places in Bucharest. The guide demonstrated knowledge and experience and was very kind at all times. The car with AC was great news for a warm summer day. Highly recommended.

Ask for Catalin
We signed up for a private guided tour of the Parliament Palace and the Ceausescu home and felt very fortunate to have Catalin as our driver and guide. He really made the trip meaningful with his deep knowledge and personal experience from growing up in Bucharest.
The Parliament Palace: impressive, and somewhat depressing to see how this massive building is underused. You learn a lot just by walking through the halls and visiting about 4 of the rooms.
The Ceausescu home is quite fascinating. Our tour was made much more informative through the information Catalin shared before and after the house tour.
Catalin took care of all the details and ushered us though the experiences with ease. He really knows what he’s doing. My husband and I credit him with the best tour we’ve had in a long time.

A wonderful experience
My wife and I really enjoyed our tour’s of the Parliament Palace & Ceausescu’s house. The palace was amazing. Such grand and ornate rooms and corridors. Ceausescu’s house was an interesting look into history and the style of home decor at that point in time. Our guide Radu was wonderful. He communicated with us very well about timing changes for our tour and was extremely knowledgeable about Bucharest and answered all of our questions.
