Great food, great insights, come hungry! - We had a great time exploring the city and food market with our guide Horia, learning about Bucharest (and Romania) past and present. The man is a wealth of knowledge! Come hungry and forget about your diet because the food is plentiful and tasty. Highly recommended.

Awesome and would suggest a great way to learn about the city - Stefania was a very knowledgeable tour guide. She gave a great history of the city as we toured around the market area and ate some great foods (unhealthy for sure). We loved the Meech and the wild fried donut desert!

Great tour - I wish we'd have done the tour earlier in our stay since we had tried some of the foods already. However, it was still a great tour. But a word to the wise. At the end of the tour, if you are a couple, SPLIT the order of papanashi. There are two and I don't think anybody could eat two of those things.
