Description

Welcome to the dark side of Bucharest. Close to the Old Town, but still away from it, there are strange things happening. Be aware, there might be some uninvited “locals” joining us for this tour. As this place was inhabited more than 2000 years ago, the city has witnessed too many deaths, murders, mysteries and, if you pay attention, you will hear the voice of the underworld almost everywhere. The tour takes you to haunted houses and places and tells you the relevant stories from the history of Bucharest. Fear not, cause Bucharest has also positive stories with gods, good ghosts, and other mysteries. Oh…let’s not forget Dracula, he also seems to be present here, given his very strong connection with the city and its past. Not to mention that we had a real vampire in the 70s, so prepare to discover his amazing story.
Note that the tour does not enter any of the haunted houses.

Cool Tour

The tour was such fun. Now we want to know much more about romanian mythology.

Una Bucarest che non ti aspetti

Denis ci ha guidati alla scoperta di storie molto interessanti e macabre accadute a Bucarest e non solo, dove niente è come sembra. In ogni storia c’è sempre la presenza di una figura del folklore rumeno che la rende ancora più interessante. Se volete scoprire una Bucarest diversa, è il tour che fa per voi. Consigliato!

Great tour!

What an interesting insight into the traditions, myths and legends of Romania! We thoroughly enjoyed it. Thank you!

Very interesting and entertaining tour

Our guide Rareș took us on a late night tour around the backstreets of Bucharest whilst regaling us with stories of witches, funeral traditions and, of course, vampires. I found the stories much more interesting than the places, and overall this was a good way to spend the evening.

Buena experiencia

El tour por el Bucarest oscuro mereció la pena. Lavi es una guía maravillosa que nos contaba las leyendas y las historias de forma muy personal. Sin duda lo recomiendo !
