“This guide proves that private tours are worth it! Personal and professional”
It's obvious that Alina has experience with leading a guided tour. Everything felt very personal and premium at the same time from the welcome to the good-bye. Alina was able to tailor the tour according to our spesifications, and she was quick to make changes when we spent some time on an attraction, and when unforseen circumstances would happen. The guide is very knowledgable about the city of Bucharest as well as Romania and the country's relationship with the continent. It was fascinating to hear about the history of the country and its turns through different forms of governments. We had many different questions about stuff we saw, or we heard from the guiding, and Alina was able to answer anything we were wondering. This is a really big benefit of booking a private tour; the guide is able to spend time on your questions. The whole experience was handled very nicely by the guide, from the planning, to a check-in message the day before. I've been a tour-guide myself, and I would highly recommend this tour!
