With a perfect mix of story vs fact, there is many a mystery yet to be solved! We had a small group which was perfect, and Elena's enthusiasm for her countrys history and future was both inspiring and promising. Will see you again in 10 years!Written October 6, 2024

Wall art was fascinating because Elena provided a rich context. Also got to see interesting parts of the city and through Elena learnt a lot about the culture and history of Bucharest and Romania. Highly recommended.

I agree with all the five-star reviews! This is one of the best things to do in Bucharest. My advice is to do this tour early on your trip so you can enjoy spotting art throughout your stay. It is a great way to walk through the city, appreciating all the architecture and history of this fascinating place through the ever-changing lens of street art. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and personable. The time just flew. It inspired me to get more familiar with the street art scene in my own hometown. A portion of the proceeds of your tour will go to the artist community. Do not hesitate.

Did a combo alternative and followed by dark side. Alex the guide was great and very informative. Was also knowledgeable in other aspects as well considering it was my first day in Bucharest and gave me pointers on other points of interest during my time here. Booking was easy amd company is very responsive. It is unfortunate I had already booked other tpurs otherwise I would have filled up my other days using this company.

The tour was just perfect. The knowledge that i got was not only about the murals & art, but also about the history and architecture of Bucharest. The tour shows much bigger perspective over the murals. The tour guide is very friendly and pays a lot of attention to the questions.

Dana went way beyond and above the standards of traditional or alternative tours that you are used to. She was willing to discuss politically incorrect subjects, get you to places you otherwise wouldn't be able to see and give you interesting insights of how Bucharest functions behind the curtains. Recommend this to everyone who doesn't want to just take pictures for the instagram, but is rather interested in culture, politics and real city life in Bucharest.

Dear Ivan, coming from the most alternative traveler I've met to date, your feedback means a lot! Thank you as well for the insights into your culture, I can't wait to visit :)
Wish you many more alternative experiences to come!
All the best, Dana

LOVED this tour. Seeing all of the murals across the city was a great way to spend the day, and you leave with some AMAZING photos! We were super lucky on our day, and actually caught one of the artists! Not going to lie, the best part about the day was our guide, Dana. She absolutely went out of her way to help us out, answer our questions, and make sure we were surviving the heat! She even gave us a list of each of the sites and their artists later, so we could spend the time enjoying the work and the stories behind them instead of rushing to take notes/ write down the cool ones I wanted to show my friends later, AND she sent a list of things to do on our last day. Super job on her part. I also loved that we got to go through the university and the gift shops at the end. Overall great trip, highly recommend to anyone coming to Bucharest. Of the three that I did, this was my favourite.
