A small-group dinner at Bucharest’s Communism Museum, with a hands-on tour and a proper Romanian meal served in the museum’s living room.
“This was an enjoyable evening, very well presented by Ali, who certainly knew her subject. We spent an hour or so looking at / discussing the Communism exhibition and were then treated to the meal which, though a proper representation of Romanian food, was a little disappointing. There was no substantial 'main course', which rather failed to meet the advertised description of an evening dinner. A pleasant evening, but not quite the dinner event I was expecting.”
Private Bucharest tour with a guided visit to the Palace of Parliament, Revolution Square, Old Town sights, and the Village Museum.
“Excellent tour guide, Tudor with Rolandia Travel. We started with a tour of a local neighborhood. Then the National Parliament tour. After that the Village Museum which was okay. Then we had a quick lunch and skipped the tour of the old town for paying extra for a tour of Nikolai Ceaucescu's family home. Very interesting after seeing the National Parliament. Old town is easy to see on your own.”
