A small-group evening walk through Bucharest’s spookiest spots, guided in English with legends of strigoi, witches, and exorcism.
“If you want a history of Romanian cultural stories and myths, this is definitely the one to do. If you want to learn more about the history of vampires, ghosts, witches, this is the tour for you.”
A 2.5-hour Bucharest ghost and Romanian mythology walking tour with local guides, Dracula lore, and real vampire stories, outdoors.
“Pouty was a brilliant guide, so knowledgeable and entertaining. Explaining the truth behind the folklore and origins of Dracula and vampires which was genuinely really interesting alongside some even darker stories whilst exploring parts of Bucharest you may otherwise miss. Highly recommend.”
Hunt ghosts in Bucharest with an offline app, puzzles, and seven eerie stops, self-paced from Icon’s Church to Manuc’s Inn.

While it did show some interesting sights of the city I'd not seen before, I spent most of the time lost and looking at Google Maps for directions. Too often, clues would give direction like 'keep going', and you'd assume this to mean in a straight line, but I was lost and frustrated more than anything else. I'd also like to see an option built in to take short break of needed. I'm just grateful it wasnt expensive or I'd be asking for a refund.”
Self-guided Dracula audio walk through Bran, Romania, with 13 dark tales, creepy sound effects, and a map that keeps you on track.
“Very impressive the audio guide. It is the most funny thing that we could do a couple in Bran as an outside activity.

It was such a nice experience! :) Real interesting stories, scary sounds, and the map that is accurate. I surely recommend it like ”a must do” tour in Bran area.”
Private ghosts-style tour of abandoned Fort Chitila, Bucharest. Explore underground tunnels with guide Sebastian for 3 hours.
“Our tour of the abandoned Chitila Fortress with Sebastian was nothing short of incredible! He took us deep into the eerie underground tunnels of this First World War military base, where history, thrill, and adventure collided. A word of caution, this is not for the faint of heart. If you’re claustrophobic or afraid of darkness and somewhat tight spaces, you might find the deeper levels challenging. You could walk through any 'tight' spaces comfortable but there are some areas where you do need to duck to get through, but the darkness makes everything feel smaller. At one point, we turned off our lights to see if any natural light seeped…”
Every kind of Romanian day out, and the pick of each.
