A wonderful experience
Alina is a great guide. She knows the material and is enthusiastic about it. She's also a very friendly and pleasant person, with a good sense of humor, so that it is very enjoyable to spend time with her. Definitely recommended for anyone with an interest in Romania's Jewish community, past and present.

Tour of Jewish sites in Bucharest led by Alina Brasoveanu
Alina led a group of 6 on a walking tour of synagogues, museums,and other sites focusing on the Jewish heritage in Bucharest. Highly informative, well-paced, articulate, and a pleasant manner. Good combination of factual detail and narrative stories.

Jewish Heritage and Old Town, walking tour
Alina is amazing tour guide; professional, well organized and enthusiastic! My companions and I spent 4 hours touring the Jewish area and the old town section. Alina is very knowledgeable about this subject and took us to the local synagogues. We had already down a tour of the old town area so Alina took us to places that were less well known. Her tour was so much better than the one we took with the trip we were on. Alina also recommended places for us to /eat closer to our hotel, the Sheraton. They were fantastic.
Bottom line, she can't do enough for you! She easily could tell what interests our group had. She is passionate about her city and wants you to be too!

Old Town and Wine Tasting Tour
Alina was an incredible guide for explaining the historical sites, restaurants, wine bars, and wines in the Old Town area of Bucharest. I was able to experience and learn about this amazing city because of her vast knowledge. The Romanian wines that she recommended based on my preferences were delicious and there many brands to choose from. I would definitely recommend havingbher as a guide for this or any other tours she offers. She is experienced, friendly, and will tailor the tour to your needs if you want.

Superb tour with a very personal touch
This is one of the friendliest and most informative tours I have been on. Alina has a lovely friendly style and is clearly very knowledgeable about every aspect of Bucharest. The tour felt relaxed and fitted perfectly for our first day in the city giving us countless options and ideas for the days ahead.
