Overview of your Bucharest tour:

It would be my pleasure to travel with you through history to "Communist Bucharest"! There are many reasons why I am very passionate about this period. Firstly, I am "made in communism", as indicated on my birth certificate: born in the Socialist Republic of Romania. I will gladly share interesting family stories from communism and the personal experience of growing up in a transition from communism to democracy. Secondly, as a sociologist, I will provide a unique perspective on what communism means for Romanians and how communism still marks Romanian society nowadays. In addition to Revolution Square, where the 1989 anti-communist revolution took place, on our private tour we will also visit the interior of the humongous Palace of the Parliament. Still called the "House of the People" by many, it is just fascinating! The tour is flexible & interactive, welcoming questions and giving us the chance to talk openly about what you are most curious about communism. Looking forward to welcoming you to town!
