Political transition - Levi made a historical review since the Second World War totally unknown, transparent, without keeping anything, objective. Highly, highly recommended.

Highly recommended tour to locate and entertain you - Tour with a guide, Maria, who apart from giving a lot and very good information on the subject, made the tour very enjoyable and entertaining. It was three hours that got short despite the fatigue. Highly recommended to understand the context of the city of Bucharest

Excellent insight into Romanian Communism - Our guide was very good and interesting explaining the chronology of how Romania became communist and the consequences for the people. We saw the important landmarks and went to the Communist museum. We had both an explanation of the museum and enough time to explore the small museum on our own. The tour gave more insight into what occurred in Romania then just going to the museum on your own and the length was just right.

Enjoyable tour with fun surprises. - I was hoping for another kind of tour. More communist architecture. It was generally correct. The Maria guide has made the experience enjoyable. He has shared curious anecdotes and made games for us all to participate in the experience.
