A feast for the eyes: Bucharest Architectural Tour – Art Deco & Modernism

Sep 2019

A highly informative tour guided for me by Andra who was happy to answer my numerous questions about the city’s Art Deco and Modernist architecture and also about Romania’s social and political history more generally. Bucharest offers so many sights for the eyes for a novice admirer of Deco and Socialist Realist architecture like me. Andra skillfully navigated around some prime examples and offered informative commentary on the buildings we admired. If you share a similar interest in architecture and want to look beyond the usual tourist sites, then I highly recommend this tour for you.

Excellent Tour Of Bucharest

Sep 2019
We spent a lovely day touring Bucharest with Andra. She is very knowledgeable about the history and culture of Romania and the architecture of the Old Town and elsewhere. She asked us immediately what we preferred to see, not see, or spend less time seeing and tailored the tour to us. We spent several hours walking around and seeing the sights of the central city. It was great learning about Bucharest, but also about communism then and now. She took us to a wonderful lunch in a beautiful garden and also made an appointment for us to tour the Palace of Parliament the next day. We appreciated her knowledge, conversation, and humor. We especially liked her “fun facts.” She also gave us recommendations for restaurants and hidden spots as we passed them. She was correct about the excellent cabbage rolls at one place too. It was a wonderful day.

Excellent tour with Andra

Sep 2019
If you want to learn more about Romania’s experience under Communist rule, I highly recommend this tour! Andra guided me around major sites in Bucharest from the Communist and post-Communist period. She is extremely warm and funny, and made the tour very interactive and personable, full of anecdotes and fascinating details you wouldn’t learn on a more generic tour. I appreciated that prior to the tour she asked about my interests, and she customized it accordingly by including information about Communist-style architecture and tales about the Ceausescu family. Made for a very eventful and fun day.

Bucharest in a very full day

Sep 2019

Andra met us at our hotel with a smile and lots of great energy and enthusiasm as we began our full day tour. We saw everything and went everywhere. Andra showed us all the must sees in Bucharest and experienced the local cuisine. Her language skills are excellent and she clearly imparted her deep knowledge of Romanian history and culture upon us in an interesting fashion. We had lots of fun and I feel she was an amazing guide and I recommend her highly.

We were a large group of friends with mixed interests….but Andra made it very interesting for all and explained everything with a patience. I wish we had a little more time but nonetheless it was a great experience. I truly appreciate the time she spent before the tour trying to understand our interests and background.

Andra was perfect. She organized a perfect individual trip in Bucharest. She picked us from the airport and showed us the essential points within three hours. Then we had to fly on to Tel Aviv. Book her and you will enjoy everything about the trip! You will start loving Romania. Thank you, Andra!

My plans/availability for Bucharest changed and I needed a tour for the same day. It was already 1pm when I sent the message to Cris.
She sent me an excellent tour guide, Andra, who, besides having good history knowledge, was pleasant and helpful.
I do recommend Andra and Cris and I will look for them in my next visit.

Afternoon and Night Walking Tours with Andra

Nov 2018 • Couples
We connected with Andra through Chris and set up two separate walking tours via email before we arrived. We were in Bucharest for two and half days and could not have enjoyed our time more with the tours given by Andra. The first tour was a day walking tour of old town Bucharest. She showed up promptly at our hotel and she took us on a walking tour of the old town explaining the history as well as the political and social issues throughout the years. We were scheduled for about a four hour tour however she stayed with us for over six hours and enjoyed her company for a late lunch at a place she recommended. And the food was excellent and typical Romanian food and drink. The next evening, Andra took us on a two hour night walking tour which was understatedly beautiful and well worth seeing Bucharest at night! Well, she actually stayed with us for over fours hours and had a lovely dinner with her also. Andra did a wonderful job and we learned so much about Bucharest than we could have on our own. Andra even went way out of her way to assist us in purchasing our train tickets from Bucharest to Brasov and explained how the train system worked in Romania. We would recommend Andra to be your tour guide in Romania…..you will be very happy with your decision! Andra, thank you for all your assistance and the wonderful detailed guided tours you gave us!

Afternoon walking tour of Bucharest with Andra

Aug 2018 • Family
My wife, daughter and I had a very informative afternoon walking tour of Bucharest with Andra. Andra was very knowledgeable and we especially enjoyed discussing the relationships between architecture, history, current events, and the social and political climate of the area with her during our tour. Our time in Bucharest was limited (just one afternoon layover before our flight the next morning) and touring the city with Andra allowed us to learn much more about the city than we could have in any other way!

Excellent guide

On a recent visit to Bucharest our group of four adults were very fortunate and pleased to have such a pleasant delightful young lady—Liana Andra Voinea—to spend a day with us on a walking tour of the city and sites. The pace was perfect, questions by her and us were enjoyed by all. We ended up being together from 10 to 5 and had a great time. I would suggest that all go for lunch (our treat) as we did and enjoy the interaction that always occurs around the table. This wasn’t necessarily on the tour but should be!! A special “thanks” to Liana!

The best travel is not just to see, but to understand—and for that, you need someone who lives the story of the place.
