Wonderful tour. A lovely, and comfortable, way to see the city. Christian was a very informative guide and we could stop, or not, where we wanted, and for as long as we wanted. We learnt a lot about Bucharest in a very comfortable and enjoyable way. We would highly recommend this tour, it’s an unusual way to see the city but that adds to the charm of Bucharest 😀😀😀

It was my first experience exploring Bucharest in a retro car and I really enjoyed it. The tour guide was friendly, very kind and knowledgeable. I felt like travelling back in time, retro tour in a retro car. I definitely recommend it!
Exploring the city in a vintage car is already an amazing experience, but the local stories, iconic landmarks, and beautiful historic neighborhoods make it even more special. Highly recommended!
