A taste of Bucharest - food tour with hotel pick up
A “stop and taste” experience. Romanian cuisine reinterpreted. Pick up from hotel & hide in the local comfort food bistros. Soups, stews, dumplings, the crossroads of several cultures, but with its very own touch. We pull over, try a dish, a drink and move on to the next. Try about 3-4 spots for the night. Option: ultimate experience is "carte blanche" so it is all down to our chef where options include a range of a tasting menu with 9-20 courses, and needs booking several days or weeks before.

“#1 Way to see Bucharest in a Day!”
We travel extensively and booking private tours is common for us. Razvan made our day in Bucharest one of the best days on our 21-day vacation. Not only was he responsive and attentive before the tour date but also throughout as he was extremely knowledgable, answered our questions, made suggestions on top places to see, and listened to our needs - supplementing our brief day prior that we had with our cruise boat tour. He made Bucharest complete, sharing his own experience as a life-long citizen and complementing it with factual history. We were also celebrating a milestone birthday and Razvan made the tour even more memorable for this special day. If you have a full day in Bucharest we highly recommend this tour and Razvan as your guide.

A night in Bucharest - an after dark experience
At night, Bucharest makes a great deal of difference. It is known as a lively, fun town. Hide on a quiet street, sip your wine sunk in tones of jazzy grooves, savor the new local cuisine, rooftop chillout or dance the night away. Everywhere is music, colors, tastes. There are secret corners, too. Save time, go where locals go, see the hidden. More fun spots in one go. Driver guide at disposal, customizable night. Dark side&pub crawl, fancy dinner&karaoke, hipsterish&new cuisine, give it a go.
