Welcome to Romania! Born and raised in Bucharest, I've been a tour designer and tailored experience facilitator for 20+ years in Romania. Tango dancer and taichi practitioner with a penchant for cultural experiences and travel; background of law and project management degree. Not a believer of "package tourism". Always willing to go the extra mile in order to provide the guest with the best possible experience. Love to translate my cultural space or deepen the knowledge of the traveler who is curious to discover more. Off and on the beaten path. . . Passionate about exchange of ideas and world cultures. Virtually undiscovered and at the crossroad of many cultural influences, Bucharest can surprise you with its many facets and complicated landscape. It is definitely worth giving it a try. I will be telling you both the legends and the real facts of, still, Europe's best kept secret. We will be touching the most important spots and the less obvious: the old center with bustling life and auberges, turn of the century palaces, squares and gardens, cemeteries and communist decay. I can take you from late medieval to the recent history of my hometown, explain the architectural landscape and familiarize you with the local habits and cuisine. I am ready to customize according to your expectations and interests. If you would like further details, please get in touch!

Overview of your Bucharest tour
Pick up from your hotel in the morning. We'll be covering a large area-communist dystopian brutalism to belle epoque. You'll see the ruins and the palaces, the parks and suburbs, graveyards and markets. Hear the stories of how, why and when it was founded, stories of battles and revolutions. It includes the not-so-touristy southern part. You can even chose to stop and visit if something catches your eye. . A stop for lunch will be made depending on where that finds us. Afternoon is reserved for exploring the posh north and working class east. Highly customizable. Depending on your hotel's location it can start from a different area but will be completing the same itinerary. It can be subjected to changes according to your interests, pace, holidays and weather conditions. At all times you'll be in a safe environment as Bucharest doesn't have "no go" areas & low crime rate.

A wonderful man with a deep understanding at a personal level the impact of communism on people and the economy.
Gordon D.United States
Wow, what an experience! The only thing that exceeds Razvan's knowledge of Romanian history, architecture and culture is his passion for delivering it in a way that is educational, insightful and personal.
Catherine G.United States
Razvan was a fantastic tour guide who was extremely knowledgeable and had lived through the revolution, so could really bring intimate details to our tour. He had pictures and maps that truly brought the history to life. We spent 7 hours together and went all over the city and saw & learned much more than expected. We enjoyed get to know him and Bucharest as well as enjoying lunch at a local restaurant. Highly recommend him and his English is flawless!
