Palace of Parliament (Palatul Parlamentului)

Guide was outside early, exactly where the email I received said she would be. Once inside, we were transferred to another guide who was excellent. He gave just the right amount of information and was very interesting. He even offered other sightseeing tips in Bucharest. Very professional!

Manuela was an excellent guide. We spent 3 hours walking around the city, visiting the major (and some quirkier) sites. It’s much more leisurely and infomative than a bus tour but be prepared: we covered 10km. Highly recommended.

Alex was an excellent guide. He knows the history, subject matter and conversed very well on English.

The price was good for 4 of us, but that was given even more value by the fact it was just the 4 of us on the tour. We were met at reception by Florin. He was very friendly and made it clear to us what the tour entailed and that flexibility was down to us, spend more time at X and maybe less at Y etc. We were then taken around Bucharest for a good 6 hours, including the fantastic Palace of Parliament, the Village Museum and many other sights of interest. The price included entrance to both these and both were very well worth seeing, the palace is truly stunning in scale. Florin had an extensive knowledge of Romanian history and was willing to answer any questions we had and to listen to our perspective of what we knew and had been presented about Romania through our lives......some very big gaps between Western eyes and the real feelings of Romanians at times. Thank you to Florin for making the whole day interesting and intriguing. Thank you to Viator for keeping up your record of ensuring the tours are of the highest quality and further enhancing the city-break experience.

Highly recommended, great tour. Fun, informative and Greg was a fantastic guide. He helped with tips for the rest of our stay also

This full day tour served as our introduction to Bucharest and it far exceeded my expectations. Our guide Alex was very knowledgeable, supplemented the information at the visited sites with valuable additions and insights, answered all of our questions, and arranged our day so as to minimize waits, the oppressive heat and in an order that gave us the best one-day tour of the city. The Village Museum will give you a great start if you plan to explore beyond Bucharest and the Places of Parl. are simply a must! Alex was also a real wiz at Bucharest traffic, which can save the day, and to top it off, he had an amazing recommendation for dinner. Great tour, great guide.
