One can find a lot of information about Bucharest on different sites or documentations.On this trip we want to convince you that even though Bucharest is no longer the nice architectural city it used to be 20 years ago, (before Ceausescu destroyed a major part of the old city), you can still have a good time in Bucharest, and see beautiful things.
We offer an extended program but each client can choose how many days he will stay and what he will visit during these days.
Hint: you should come from the end of April till the beginning of June (to avoid the heat) or from September till mid October (to avoid the rainy period).
