Overview

Discover, interact and finally learn what other things you can explore in the city. It is a tour that will help you shape a first general perspective over the city's history and heritage. Interaction is what we like to do, along the way the guide will always be open to answer all of your questions.
The tour will approximately cover a distance of 4.5 Km which will mean that you will get to see about 70% of the main attractions in Bucharest.
It will not be a tour but a walk with a local friend!

Cool Destinations wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That's why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Cool Destinations over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
