Bucharest Walking Tours

May 16, 2016 by Rosemary

Lipscani Old Town Walk with GPSmycityRomania’s capital gets a bad rap, but in fact it’s dynamic, energetic and quite fun. It’s where still-unreconstructed communism meets unbridled capitalism; where the soporific forces of the EU meet the passions of the Balkans and Middle East.

Many travellers give the city just a night or two before heading off to Transylvania, but we think that’s not enough. Budget at least a few days to take in the good museums… from Lonely Planet

Cities are where the people, the culture, the arts and the energy of a country can be experienced in a small space.  Walking is an ideal way to explore somewhere like Bucharest. Search Bucharest apartments for rent to find a place to base yourself and explore a different corner every day.

Leaving from Unirii Square Park, in front of the Clock (next to the fountains). Look for their distinctive orange outfit – every day at 10.30am and 6pm. It is rated as the top tour in Bucharest on TripAdvisor – with some excellent reviews – “This tour was cool, useful, funny & full of interesting facts & stories. It covered history of the city & Romania, architecture, food, lifestyle & top spots in the city centre. We learned about the most important buildings & personalities. It was a great introduction to Bucharest.”

GPSMyCity

Manuc's InnBucharest Step by Step  is a local company providing you with a your own guide. The standard tours usually take around 2.5 – 3 hours – there are 6 themed tours to decide from.  If you want a custom-made full day tour, this can take as long as you want (but not longer than 6 hours).

Your guides are four wonderful women who love Bucharest. Two speak English and German, one English and Swedish, and one only English.  They know the best places to stop for a coffee and something to eat.  Tours from 19E per person.
