Bucharest with a Local: By Public Transport
I was born and raised in Bucharest, and it will be my pleasure to show you my city through the eyes of a local. We will use public transport as it is not only one of the most efficient ways to get around in a busy city, but also a way to experience everyday life. An opportunity to see both the central area of the city and outskirts, including one of its neighbourhoods established in the ‘communist era’. Highlights: Univ. Square, Old Town, Berceni neighborhood, Vacaresti 'Delta', Obor market

Meeting Point
University Square - in front of the building of the National Theater (Teatrul National 'Ion Luca Caragiale')
- In front of Teatrul National 'Ion Luca Caragiale' ( The National Theater), there is a big bronze sculpture depicting several characters (Ion Luca Caragiale Monument). I will have the pleasure of meeting you right by it.
Old Town
An opportunity to feel the old charm of Bucharest by strolling the streets of the old town and discovering its highlights: National Bank, Carturesti Bookstore, Stavropoleos Church, Manuc's Inn, Old Princely Court, and more
Union Square
We will get on the subway at Union Square station and head towards one of the neighborhoods of Bucharest established in the 'communist era' of Romania.
Berceni neighborhood
A former 'communist' neighborhood, established for the working class, with typical high-rise blocks of flats, a place that has changed over time, and which a good number of people call home for a few generations now. It will be an opportunity to learn about the changes the country has gone through over the past decades.
Vacaresti Natural Park
An area with a fascinating history, where an abandoned reservoir project gave way to nature's reclaiming of the land, and has turned it into a 'delta', as it is nicknamed. Turned natural park, this wild area in the middle of an urban establishment is quite unique.
Obor market
We will take the tram to get to the biggest market in Bucharest, very popular for locals to shop for a wide range of goods. It will be an opportunity to see the produce and to try some local delicacies, as it will be just about lunchtime. Afterwards, a tram will take us to our endpoint.
