This is one of the most... - This is one of the most excited tours that you should do when you visit Odessa. I really enjoyed the trip with Igor, he is professional, good English speaker and welcoming any question. He is knowledgable and expert in this field, so I highly recommend taking the tour with him as he will explain to you everything with good stories as well :). You will have the chance at the end to navigate on your own as a practice to test your knowledge on how to utilize the maps in underground areas.

Very enjoyable - It was an amazing experience! They first explain the rich history of the catacombs while taking you through this scary but fascinating underground labyrinth. After that you are sent on a treasure hunt, all by yourselves. So cool

Exploring the Bucharest catacombs - Egor led our party of four through the catacombs. It was so interesting. He made sure we had on proper jackets which might get dirty. We each had hats to cover our hair and either a headlight or flashlight. (I would suggest guests take along their own raincoat - not for rain but comfortable for the cave temperatures and easy to wash later, as well as a stocking cap of your own.). After about an hour and a half of the twists and turns of the catacombs, our group paired up in twos and was each given a map with five marked destinations to find before returning back to our meeting spot. So much fun but takes some perseverance to track and not get lost. Our entire parry made it out! Don’t miss this when you are in Bucharest.
