Understanding Bucharest - Essential History, Life under Comunism and Fun
Do you want to explore Bucharest with a passionate local guide ? Look no further ! I am a huge fan of history and the stories that make the city I am visiting. That’s why in this tour we wont just focus on random historical stuff , like at a college lecture, but more on stories collected from others or myself and combine it with the history of the city so you can have a better view about daily life now and during communism. Some ancient history included aswell.
As i am not a fan of huge guided tours , i will limit this experience to maximum 25 people.
After the tour your will be ready for your Bucharest exploration ! You will learn what to eat, what not eat but most importantly we will have fun, laugh, learn and enjoy our time in this fascinating city that I call home ! So join me and we will:
- Find out about the dark history of communism , the biggest anti-comunism Revolution ever and see the second largest building in the world , The House of the People,
