Private Walking Tour: Essential Bucharest + Hidden Gems

It was absolutely excellent - informative and stimulating! We spent over 3 hours enjoying Bucharest.

Cristi was an amazing tour guide. Was a great experience for my whole family. My 8 year old daughter said it was her favorite tour we did on our trip. Would 100% recommend this tour to anyone wanting to get the most and best possible info about Bucharest!

Cristi we are coming again for more tours. You made the best first expression of Bucharest. We loved it! I have never seen before such a well prepared guide with the archive pictures. Wish you only the most intelligent tourists with a lot of questions! Best, Oleksandra

Christi gives you insights into the city development with in a well prepared manner. He is quick as well as thoughtful if you place questions, which gives a feeling that he really knows the different styles and ages of the buildings are made and that is so precious. Apart from his expertise, he is a fantastic person and you will enjoy your time in this tour.

This tour was the very first thing we did when we arrived in Bucharest and it really helped shape our experience and enjoyment of the city. Radu is a fabulous guide, and person. It makes a difference when the guide really cares about the city and wants to provide the best experience, Radu was patient in answering all the questions we had. We would see what seemed like a beautiful building, then Radu would explain the history, and then show us pictures of how that building looked in the past, and why, truly fascinating! Because of this tour, it helped us understand the different influences at play over time and the resilience of the people. Armed with this knowledge, and the passion with which Radu brought the city to life, we were able to use this perspective to enjoy and appreciate our stay in Bucharest far more than if we hadn’t taken this tour.

My husband and I booked Cristi's tour for our first day in the city in order to "get our bearings" and were very, very pleased that we did. Cristi is a born "people person", has made an extensive study of the history and architecture of his native city and is extremely good at sharing his knowledge. He took us to places we would never have found for ourselves showing us how the "real" city and it's people are. Even if you are short of time in Bucharest a tour with Cristi is a must.

Amazing experience with an very kind and friendly guide. So much exciting information, you can see at first sight he is very passionate about what he does. I was watching his instagram profile for a time and it was a pleasure to attend to a tour that helped me a lot understand better the history of old Bucharest. Very helpful for me, as I am an experienced realtor in Bucharest, working also with historical exclusive properties. Thank you very much! Strongly recommend!

Cristi has done more than a little homework in preparing this tour. He has researched archives to bring to life with extensive images the contrast of past with present. It is a fascinating combination of history and architecture that makes for an outstanding tour experience. Highly recommend this for an introduction to Bucharest.

I’ve been following Cristi’s Instagram account - @raidenbucharest, for years and finally I got the chance to book one of his tours with my friends. We were just blown away by his knowledge of architecture and urban stories. He’s so passionate and knows just where to take you in order to make great memories and go back home with beautiful pictures to share with close ones. My advice? Don’t miss this while you’re in Bucharest.

I really enjoyed this tour. Cristi was much more than a tour guide, he was a story teller and a history expert on Romania and Bucharest. I was lucky enough to be the only one on this tour so we were able to spend an extra couple hours roaming the city and learning about some additional sites. I highly recommend this tour and if you're lucky enough to get Cristi, you're in for a real treat. A++++++
