“Don't walk, run to this tour. If Tudor is your guide, it's your lucky day. The tour was definitely worth the price. The stories were unique, and Tudor didn't just tell us a story. He discussed with us, asked for our thoughts, and answered any questions. He was fun and engaging, and he definitely managed to creep us out with the stories, more than once. I would definitely recommend this tour, if you want to spend a fun and interesting evening learning about tradition and local folklore.”

“It was a great tour and guide to the history of Romania. I loved my guide, Michaela. She was fantastic and I was lucky to be the only one on the tour!!! She also helped me with suggestions for the rest of my time here. My only complaint, is that I’m not sure why it was so much more expensive than the other walking tour of Budapest that is offered. It was quite expensive compared to the other. Thank you so much and I LOVED Michaela!!”
