Overview

Dracula. A labyrinth of interconnected tunnels underneath the city. Ghost stories. Plenty of skeletons hidden in plain sight. The plague. A very amorous prince. Kinky prostitutes. A king with a taste for the occult. The eternal horrible life of orphans. Crazy Balkan superstitions.

All enriched with loads of historical information, fun facts and interesting observations, that will ensure you a great time during this tour. If you're bored by the same tour of a city center you probably had in any foreign city you've been to, then try this tour.

Plus, our tour is great for kids. Or for your average not-interested-in-anything teen. The weird ideas, the oddity of other people's beliefs and the superstitions of Romanians might just make it the perfect tour for your entire family.

Our guides put a lot of effort into making this tour as great as it is. The recommended tip for their effort is 20 euros/person.

The tour starts from Mo day to Friday at 10.00 and 13.30 (1.30 pm).

Meeting point

Palatul Voievodal Curtea Veche

On arrival

In front of Saint Anton's Church and the Old Palace of Dracula (Palatul Voievodal Curtea Veche), in the Old Town of Bucharest. I will have a big visible logo saying `While in Bucharest Walking Tours`. A big church, made of red bricks, will be behind me, and I`ll have some ruins to my left side.

Things to note

Have a water bottle, wear comfortable shoes, and bring your curiosity with you.
