What to expect

The Tour of Bucharest begins at the Romanian Athenaeum, the landmark building considered by locals to be the most beautiful in the city. From here, we will walk on the avenue where kings had their daily strolls – the romantic Calea Victoriei. For example, superb Belle Epoque structures bearing the French Style like the CEC Palace, Grand Hôtel du Boulevard or the University Library can be admired here.

In contrast, a stop in the Revolution Square will make you understand the harsh communist oppression and the control this regime had over people’s lives.
Tales of incredible achievements, but also about hunger and food rations will be told, aided by photos from those times, for a more dramatic effect.
Besides this, you will learn about the brutal revolution in December 1989 that overthrew the communist regime and the ultimate downfall of the Dictator Nicolae Ceaușescu.

Next, we will walk in the Old Town of Bucharest, on the steps of the most gruesome character in history – Vlad Dracula.
Lastly, all around the Old Town we will show you an eclectic mix of buildings like the National Bank of Romania, the Stavropoleos Monastery and the Villacrosse Passage.

To conclude the tour of this charming quarter, we will stop at Manuc’s Inn, an incredible building from the early 1800s, where you will understand how Bucharest evolved at the merger between the East and the West.
