Delve into the culinary culture of Bucharest during a 4-hour walking tour in the Romanian’s capital. During this private tour, you’ll immerse yourself in the vibrant atmosphere of the old town of Bucharest. Indulge yourself with a first stop at a restaurant with pies called La Placinte. Here you will try some pies and understand why they are such an important part in tradition. Hard to choose one when there are so many choices and all of them look amazing.

Here you will try the traditional bean soup with smoked bacon in a bread bowl with onion. Second course will be traditional skinless sausages “mici” with mustard and end your tour with some “papanasi”, traditional fried or boiled pastry resembling a small sphere, usually filled with jam and sour cream on top. Drop off at your hotel and we hope that at the end of the day you have discovered the real taste of Romanian food.
