Boekarest heeft een zeer duister verleden. Het wordt tijd dat je erachter komt! Ga met ons mee en duik in de intrigerende geschiedenis van de stad, zijn diepste, donkerste geheimen. Dit is niet je gemiddelde geschiedenisles en wat je leert tijdens deze tour zal waarschijnlijk niet in je gids staan - dus maak je klaar om te worden geschokt, onder de indruk en vermaakt.

Geniet van de wandeling en verhalen op de Bellu-begraafplaats, het eerste moderne kerkhof in de stad en een plek vol liefdesverhalen, unieke architectuur en zelfs mysteries die wachten om opgelost te worden.
Ontdek het startpunt van de belangrijkste protesten in onze recente geschiedenis. Leer meer over de slachtoffers die dapper vochten tijdens de revolutie van 1989, degenen die in een westerse toekomst geloofden en in de jaren '90 tegen de mijnwerkers vochten, en over de recente strijd tegen corruptie. Ze zijn hier allemaal begonnen.
Reis vervolgens terug in de tijd in het begin van de 20e eeuw om alles te weten te komen over de schandalige tijden die Boekarest had voordat het communistische regime aan de macht kwam. In 1927 werkten er ongeveer 12.000 prostituees en escorts in Roemenië. Onder hen waren er dames van de nacht, zoals de mooie zigeunerdanseres Zaraza.
Een zeer belangrijke en emotionele plek die iedere Roemeen kippenvel bezorgt. Leer meer over de Roemeense goelag, de wrede dictator Nicolae Ceausescu en hoe moeilijk het leven in de jaren '80 was voor de lokale bevolking. Reis terug in de tijd naar 22 december 1989, toen er schietpartijen plaatsvonden en veel onschuldige mensen stierven tegenover Securitatea (de geheime politie). Deze plaats vertegenwoordigt een symbolisch einde voor het communistische regime in Roemenië. Ontdek hoe het gebeurde.

Helena was amazing really knowledgeable, witty and friendly. The best thing to do in Bucharest.The
Thank you for your review! We are happy you had a great time with our colleague Elena. Safe travels!
Alex was beyond amazing. So much history and information. He was exceptional with knowledge and was able to answer every question. He really knows the Romanian history and culture and shared with enthusiasm. We have done many tours in many countries and Alex has raised a high bar. He thought of everything and it was the perfect pace. He even made local recommendations. We couldn't be happier! I can't give this tour and Alex enough stars.
Thank you so much Jennifer for taking the time to write such a nice review! We are happy you had a great time with Alex and we will make sure your kind word get to him. Safe travels! :)
We wholeheartedly give top marks to Elena. She was much more than we had expected and gave freely of her charm, knowledge, enthusiasm, and sheer personality. The time we spent with her went by so quickly and the insight she gave us into Romanian culture history and life today was invaluable on our first day here in her country. Plus we had an added bonus in that we were the only three on the tour, making it even more of a special occasion. We thoroughly recommend both the tour and Elena.
Thank you so much for your wonderful words! We are happy you enjoyed the stories, history and insights into Romanian life as well as the time spent with Elena. We will make sure to let her know. :) Safe travels!
If you want an informative and gentle tour in order to learn more about Bucharest and Romania, you shouldn’t miss Elena’s tour. Elena had a wonderful sense of pacing, mixing must-see landmarks with quiet, lesser-known corners that most tourists never find. It was clear she genuinely cared about giving us an authentic experience, not just a checklist of sights. We were also impressed by Elena’s warmth and compassion for her fellow Romanians; she took time to help an older man with his bucket of water (the man was tending a grave). Elena also provided food and love to the stray animals we saw and explained how she is trying to remedy the problem of strays in Bucharest. By the end of the tour, we felt like we understood Bucharest’s soul, not just its streets. If you get the chance to explore the city with Elena, take it — you won’t just see Bucharest, you’ll fall in love with it. Highly, highly recommend!
Thank you so much for this beautiful review! Elena is a wonderful guide and we will make sure to let her know you enjoyed the tour with her. We hope Bucharest keeps a special place in your heart! :)
He was so knowledgeable about the tour. We asked so many questions and he was able to answer. Got so much out of this tour.
Dear Kirsten, thank you for your review! It means a lot to us :) We are happy you enjoyed the tour
I had an amazing tour with Alexia! Even though the other two people on the tour canceled and some rain was scheduled, I appreciated that the tour still continued. It was very well organized, with a great overview of some of the history of Romania including some of its famous people buried in Bellu Cemetery, and an overview of some places from the 1989 revolution. Alexia was well informed and a great guide, and everything was paced very well. If you're fascinated in visiting the cemetery and learning about these things, it's worth it for sure!
Dear Bobby, thank you for your review! We are happy to read you had a good time with Alexia. We will make sure to tell her your appreciations.
If you want to follow a tour that is slightly different from the standard, this is highly recommended! The raw truth of the country's history with a good atmosphere and dose of humor. Under the guidance of a local resident who can tell with passion.
Thank you for the review, Donny!
Very interesting, Mihaela is a good guide who can tell interesting stories and is definitely open for any questions. Only a lot of mosquitoes on the graveyard 🫣
Thank you for the review, Stefan! We are happy to hear you have enjoyed our experience and we hope to meet you again, on another tour, soon!
We had such a wonderful time. The stories were fun and informative. Lots of history. We loved how Elena cared for the stray kitties as we made our way through the cemetery. It was very hot and she made sure we had shady areas to talk. We moved easily through the subway and the city. I would definitely recommend this tour
Thank you for the review, Susan! It was a pleasure having you on our tour and we hope to meet you again, for another cultural experience in Bucharest, soon!
