Begin your day in the morning and explore the wonders of Bucharest, also known as The Little Paris of the East, with our expert guide. This panoramic city tour includes stops and historical insights at three significant sites: Revolution Square, Constitution Square, and the equally impressive Military Academy.

Uncover the history of the Romanians from the Roman Empire, through the Middle Ages and the era of Vlad the Impaler, and walk through the Monarchy and the dark communist times of recent history.

Drive by landmarks such as the Romanian Arch of Triumph, House of Free Press, Kiseleff Avenue with its beautiful French-style villas, Embassy Row, Romanian Peasant’s Museum, Victory Square, Officer’s Club, Cismigiu Garden, Medical School, Opera Square, Fountains Avenue, and Military Academy.

Next, visit the open-air Village Museum for a unique experience that offers a glimpse into the life of Romanian peasants from over 100 years ago. This museum is particularly impressive because all the houses were relocated from their original sites and rebuilt here in Bucharest nearly a century ago.

In the afternoon, leave the bustling city behind and visit Mogosoaia Palace. Imagine one of Romania’s wealthiest families spending almost their entire fortune to restore this magnificent place. Travel back in time to a more elegant era and uncover all its secrets with your guide.

From here, head north of the city to a place steeped in myth and history. The Snagov Monastery is believed to be the burial site of the famous Romanian ruler Vlad the Impaler, also known as Dracula. The monastery is situated on a small island in the middle of a beautiful lake.
