The Alternative Tourism Association, founded by enthusiasts in 2015, began by organizing hundreds of "Free Tours" in Arad and later expanded to Timișoara, serving thousands of tourists, especially during its European Capital of Culture year. Beyond free tours, the association enthusiastically develops themed and "behind closed doors" tours aimed at helping local residents in both cities better understand their heritage. Additionally, it plays a key role in raising the standard of Romanian tourism by training and certifying modern national tour guides.
I joined the Timisoara guided tour at 6 pm and the atmosphere was perfect. The city was very calm and pleasant to walk through. Alex is a very good speaker who explains the historical facts of the city very clearly while walking through the streets. He is also very friendly and attentive. I highly recommend this tour to discover the city center of Timisoara. See you next time, Manuele
We were just to people in the tour so we got the special treatment. Was very friendly and educational
Simona was amazing! Truly authentic with humor! For sure if you ever be in Timisoara don’t miss a tour!
Alex’s tour of Timisoara was informative, engaging and entertaining. I learned so much about my hometown, and it was really fun too! I was blown away by Alex’s knowledge and ability to tailor the tour to our interests, and also to adapt it for to having three littles ones with us. They had a great time too! Thoroughly recommend Timisoara free tours.
