Authentic experience - We enjoyed this experience as our introduction to Bucharest. Dan & Patricia shared their life experience with us as we discovered the historical development of this impressive city. The show casing of traditional dishes gave a tasty focus for the tour. Dan highlighted the mosaic of architectural heritage of Bucharest.

The best tour we had so... - The best tour we had so far: the hosts made us feel like family, we explored some of the local foods but since we were already stuffed, but wanted to go and see other specific places, they were more than accommodating and really nice people, they even gave us gifts: candy from Capsa, pastries, etc. I can’t wait to spend time with them again

A fantastic way to find your feet in a new city! - I had a fantastic evening on this tour - Dan was armed and prepared with lots of information, pictures and stories about the history and life in Bucharest during and after Communism, and taking a look inside some of the buildings, it builds a beautiful picture. As for the food, there were lots of tasty treats! I don't want to spoil it, because even though I hadn't eaten since early morning, I was stuffed and struggling to eat any more by the end! It is an evening out with a new friend you haven't met, but knows the best places to eat!

History and local food combined. Not to be missed! - Don’t look at this as just a food tour. It is a comprehensive food and historical and cultural tour. We saw so many historical buildings and learned about the history of modern Romania on this food tour. The guide and his wife made a great team to make sure that our time together went smoothly. I would strongly recommend this to anyone looking for more information About Bucharest while enjoying their local cuisine.

We had a fantastic... - We had a fantastic evening. It was a great combination of learning about Romania’s history and its delicious food. Most importantly our hosts were warm and friendly and we thoroughly enjoyed chatting over dinner. The only hiccup was the Meeting Point map took me to the End point but this was resolved via Whatapp communication.

Best food tour in Bucharest 🍺 - Dan was the best tour guide! He surprised me with a quick walkthrough of the Roman athenaen and also brought me a small flower pin for Marti day that was the day I was traveling back home. He made great recommendations, was so knowledgeable about the history of Bucharest and Romania. Can't wait to go back and plan another trip with him. Book the food tour!
