Explore the capital of Romania with all your senses and forget about diets, at least for this day, with our yummy Bucharest Food Tour.
You will discover Romanian culture through delicious tastes while we stop for bites and drinks and history stories along the way.
This four hours Bucharest Food Tour has two options, the day tour, and the evening tour. Both have the same itinerary, across the beautiful streets of the Old Town but they offer distinct experiences when it comes to atmosphere mood, and tasting stops. The day tour ends with one of the best coffees in Europe while the evening tour says its goodbye with one of the best cocktails in town.
Don’t forget to bring your photo camera.
Tour also suited for seniors.

The tour starts in front of Starbucks from Unirii Square. Our meeting point is only a few meters away from the heart of the Old Town where we'll also end the tour.
The oldest part of Bucharest, the place of the Old Court of medieval princes, the commercial and financial heart of the capital until the Second World War, the Old Town is today a must-see site. Narrow streets, old merchant houses, beautiful churches, and monumental French-style edifices are the main attractions.
We'll see Stavropoleos Monastery, CEC Palace, Manuc's Inn and even walk on the iconic Victoriei Avenue, the most historical street of Bucharest. This avenue was built at the end of the 17th century by one of the greatest Romanian princes. Since that moment it became the favorite place of the elites for building lavish residences.
We make three stops at local restaurants, food shops, and eating houses in the Old Town to sample savory Romanian dishes, to taste traditional desserts and local drinks.
