5.00Such a fun and interesting tour! Our guide was super friendly and made the whole history of communism really easy to understand and enjoyable to listen to. He also recommended us music and movies along the way, which made everything feel more personal and authentic. One of the best experiences we had in Bucharest :)
Could be better

3.00He was a good guide but a bit young to talk about communism in Romania since he was 2 when the regime fell.
If you want to know something about Romania

5.00We were contacted in advance because the walking tour could not go ahead, we were offered the 'Highlights of Bucharest' tour instead. We were taken as the crow flies through the history of the city, Alex was a pleasant guide who could answer all your questions. Definitely recommended!
Want to understand Romanian history and culture over the last 100 years, and why it is so poor today? Take this tour!

5.00Alex was an excellent guide, describing Communism in Romania from its philosophical inception to the rise of Ceauşescu, the external and economic reasons for his initial popularity, reasons (internal & external) for his fall, and then the final days leading to his execution. Along the 5km walk, he pointed out historically relevant buildings. These included buildings and boulevards not only relevant to communism, but also Romanian culture and history. At 36, he is too young to have lived through the early days, but definitely was alive through the decline and slow reinvention of his country. He is well-read and well-traveled, knowledgeable about other countries and architecture. His enthusiasm for his subject is infectious. On the day of our tour, it was particularly hot weather, so he altered the time of the tour well in advance to address this. He stopped when members of our party needed a cold drink, were tired or needed a toilet. In short, the tour could only have been better if it had been a little cooler weather. Alex could not be improved upon.
A real must!

5.00Extended and small group tour with Alex who is a very learned and intelligent host who is clearly very well read and engaging tour guide. He himself growing up in the dying embers of the communist era. Excellent and well organised activity. Sign up
