Tour description

During this experience, we will be exploring Bucharest and its history, while stopping at some of the best and most interesting bars the city has to offer.

From rooftop bars to local pubs and the best beer spots in Bucharest, we will cover all types of awesome places.


As we walk between locations I will make sure to: inform you of the history of the city, point out the most popular bars/cafes/restaurants/hang-out spots, and tell you as many interesting facts about the Romanian lifestyle as possible.

During this experience, we will be covering all the important touristic attractions, the most photogenic spots, the most beautiful streets and squares, and some of the hidden gems located in the heart of Bucharest.

On this tour we will be trying local (all produced in Romania, and most of them produced especially for the locations we will be stopping at) alcoholic beverages such as:
- Brandy (Palinca)
- Cherry Liquor (Visinata)
- Wine
- Beer
+Traditional Snacks and other optional drinks

The cost of the drinks that we will be trying along the way is around 18EUR/90RON (NOT INCLUDED). You do not need any cash along the way, as card is accepted in all of the locations we will be stopping in.

Drinking at any/all stops is not mandatory, just recommended.

Mal eine andere Art der Stadtführung. Uns hat es sehr gut gefallen, wir haben einen guten Überblick über die Entwicklung Bukarests und Rumäniens erhalten. Super englisch. Andrei war sehr nett, spontan und natürlich. Wir hätten die Tour direkt am ersten Tag machen sollen, zur besseren Orientierung an den folgenden Tagen.

The tour was very complete, with many historical details. He is a very nice person who makes the time fly and you take some learning with you. And the places he took us to are very local, so much so that I hadn't noticed them in the centre after 3 days walking around. Thanks for the tour.
