The tour is magical but Cristi's knowledge of the city's history and architecture makes the experience 10 times better! I only had some hours to spare for this your and despite my short timeframe, he made it worthwhile. At every turn in this city, there was something incredible to see and with Cristi's explanation of the architecture/history of the buildings, it made me appreciate the moment even more.A tour with that "je ne sais qoui" with both mainstream and underground sites. Also good for locals!

Architectural and historical insights combined with great story telling. Cristi is driven by great, authentic passion, and you can see it in the way he collects data, all in order to paint a realistic picture of the surroundings of this marvelous city. Apart from this tour in particular and a few others, I also know him from the Bucharest Time Machine presentations where he keeps the audience connected for 2-3 hours of pure enjoyment, all of which built through: veritable, rare data (photos, documents, sometimes old decorative objects) and wit. If you need a guide in Bucharest, well.. He. Is. The. One.This tour exceeded all our expectations. Cristi gave us all historical, architectural and cultural context to appreciate the landmarks and urban scenery, and better understand Romania's current situation.

We never thought that an urban tour could be so wonderful! Bucharest is such a beautiful city and Cristi, our tour guide, is such a pleasant person! He combined all the necessary information with revealing secret or hidden places, entering buildings on days not open for the public - not to mention the laughs along the way! It was a great tour, we have learnt a lot for the history of the city and we really had one of the best times abroad ever.
