An informative 5(+) hour tour. Well worth the cost. - Narcis was an overall great tour guide. He apologized for being one minute late. He was very knowledgeable about many areas and the history of Bucharest and offered many useful options to consider outside of the tour (viewing the 41 fountains at night on a weekend (for a show like the Bellagio fountain in Las Vegas) and sampling Romanian wine). The tour was scheduled for 5 hours, he was very accommodating to our small group of three and did not attempt to rush us through any of the sites. He even added a stop to the Anthenel…it was gorgeous inside and worth the additional stop (and cost 10 Lei). We spent nearly 6 hours touring. Narcis was very engaging and communicative so it did not feel like 6 hours. The tour transports was via a person, privately owned car. It was one guide to three clients/guests. This 5 hour tour was a perfect introduction to Bucharest. I only wish I could have scheduled it for my first day.

Pleasant, informative and knowledgeable tour operator. - The tour operator was very professional. He provided a pleasant first look at this large and beautiful city. He took the time to show us everything we asked for. He went the extra mile showing us hidden gems and top attractions alike. I highly recommend their operation.

Fabulous morning with our star guide Serban - What a fabulous look at Bucharest. Our guide - Serban Riga - was really friendly and knowledgeable and took us round all the significant sites of the city as well as explaining the history behind them. The highlight for us was the Museum of Village Life - so peaceful and interesting. Absolutely recommend this to anyone looking for a good introduction to Bucharest.

Fantastic tour - This tour is a great introduction to Bucharest and its history. Laura, my guide, was really knowledgeable and managed to get me into a see a magnificent building not officially part of the tour as it's not guaranteed. The tour of parliament was really interesting. I thoroughly recommend this company because I was a solo traveller in low season and they did everything possible to accommodate me.

Unforgettable tour with Serban - Serban is punctual, polite, personable and a whole lot of fun. We had a blast touring Bucharest, especially the Village Museum and Parliament building. Serban was knowledgable about the historic sites and shared several personal experiences about his youth and growing up in the area. We appreciated the personal details and humor, plus the excellent advice on positioning in the tours. We enjoyed a wonderful locals lunch at La Mama, thank you again Serban for setting us up there. We will definitely take another tour with Serban and Travelmaker when we find ourselves back in Romania.

Amazing Palace - My wife and I had a great morning with Boogie. Enthusiastic and knowledgeable. The village museum was great as was the tour of the Palace. We felt we knew a lot more about Romania after this. Arrived on time and went without a hitch.

Brilliant half day tour with Boogie - I was picked up by Bogdan (Boogie) at sharp 9am for the tour. I had a flight at 15.40 so Boogie had to rearrange the schedule a little bit to ensure that I don't miss the Parliament Palace tour. Boogie is extremely knowledgable and passionate about the country and a very easy going guide explaining little things about the country as we went to different places. Overall, if you are short on time and want to get a good grip on Romania's history, I highly recommend this tour!
