Riverside Bucharest Free Tour

Is there life outside of the Old Town? Of course there is! Like most capitals, Bucharest was founded along the river.

Learn about our Royal family, famous artists and personalities, as well as the dark legacy of communism while strolling along the Riverside and its vicinity.

We get a glimpse into Manuc's Inn, an old caravanserai, before we snap back to the reality of our dictator's new civic center. The Palace of the Supreme Court then gives us insight into more recent international controversies.

Photos galore along the largest choreographed fountains ensemble and the Riverside promenade! Next comes a monastery complex founded by the sons and nephews of Vlad Dracula himself!

You will find out how both the old and the contemporary townfolk lived, as we discuss Bucharest's most recent tragedy then see a 1700s house.

Finally, we stop atop the Old Senate Hill for a unique perspective of the Palace of Parliament, before we venture closer to see its brutalist glory - and the demolitions it left behind.

Bonus: Festivals or a Christmas Market 🎅 might await at the end, depending on the season.
