About operator:

Good Living provides boutique accommodation and guided experiences in Bucharest. Our passionate guides will help you make sense of the city once called "the Little Paris". Bucharest is a vibrant mix of Parisian architecture, Berlin-style nightlife, Istanbul-like street-food, and other influences from the Balkans. We love getting lost in the city, exploring its streets, buildings, historic events and personal stories of its residents, and trying to make sense of everything for you. Our tours explore the city from different perspectives, and are built as immersive stories, rather than dry statistics or checklists of monuments.
