Hi, there! Welcome to Bucharest! I am Alina, your local guide. And I warmly invite you to join me on a private tour of Bucharest, exploring the best of my charming home town! With years of experience as a licensed guide, I bring to my tours a lot of local knowledge delivered in a professional, friendly and entertaining way. My background is actually in sociology: I studied Political Sciences & Sociology and during college and graduate school I lived abroad in Italy and in France. This has greatly improved my intercultural communication skills and made me even more passionate about sharing and "translating" Romanian culture. After doing my PhD in sociology, for several years I taught at the University and learned at least as much as I taught! It was a marvelous experience which helped me better communicate and capture the attention of an audience. As a professional licensed guide, my goal is to ensure the best private tours and experiences for travelers interested in more than scratching the surface. All my Bucharest private tours are ready to be tailored into custom tours to fit you perfectly: - adapting the tours to your pace and interests - including wine tastings, traditional lunches or street food and pastries stops on our tour - accommodating larger groups Looking forward to hearing from you and to welcoming you here! Best wishes from sunny Bucharest, Alina PhD in Sociology International experience: - ERASMUS mobility scholarship, Universita degli Studi di Padova, Italia - Doctoral mobility scholarship at the Anthropology Department, Universite Victor Segalen Bordeaux II, France Bachelor in Political Sciences and Sociology National Guide License First Aid - Red Cross certificate Foreign language certifications: English - TOEFL diplomas French - DELF diploma Italian - CILS diploma Spanish - DELE diploma The Palace of the Parliament has their own guides for the interior visits.

Join me on a half-day tour of the authentic side of town and see where the locals like to hang out! Together we will step off the beaten path and enjoy an engaging visit of hidden architectural jewels and charming public gardens of the old Bucharest. As a former sociologist, I love to talk about the local history and culture, as well as the local life. I will show you a few of our beautiful pieces of urban art and cultural venues, so that you can have a good feeling of Bucharest's vibrant urban life. Together we will travel through time and get to know Bucharest's evolution through the centuries. As a little bonus to get the real "feel" of the city: I warmly recommend to have a short break (for lemonade and cake) in one of the typical outdoor cafés (or "summer garden" as we call them). I invite you to book my Hidden Bucharest tour and experience together my favorite part of the city!
- Icon Garden and Ioanid Park (historic public gardens) - Cărturești Bookshop (interior visit) and Verona garden - French Institute (outside view) - Anglican Church (outside view) - Great options for a coffee & cake break (optional break to experience the local "summer gardens") - A set of hidden architectural gems (diverse historic architecture, outside view) *** The pace of the tour is leisurely and there will be plenty of options to stop and rest shortly during our walk. *** The tour can be customized to better fit your interests and preferences. Please write me and I will come back to you asap with the tailor-made tour.
