On this tour, the first of its kind in Bucharest, we won’t talk about the tourist attractions. Instead, we’ll take you on a journey about the present and about the people: street art, graffiti, unconventional art spaces, hidden gems, and much more…

I’m Stefan and what I like most is traveling. My mother says that I was born with a backpack, (hopefully) just a joke :).
But the more I see this world, the more I like Bucharest, my home town. It’s a complex and crazy city, that is for sure worthy to be discovered. Days after joining my first free tour (in Amsterdam), me and a couple of friends started our own free tour in Bucharest, that you are welcomed to join!
Highlights
- Check out some of the best street art and graffiti spots in Bucharest
- Get a glimpse at how the city is changing and see some examples of urban renewal
- Discover unconventional art spaces where local artists have left their marks
- Uncover the city’s hidden gems
- Find out about the abandoned Old Town and the “new Old Town”
- Understand present-day social issues and see how local projects are trying to solve them
Description
This is a non-touristic, non-highlights, and non-landmarks tour that gets you beyond the boulevards and experiencing Bucharest’s true nature and identity from a local perspective.
It’s all about creativity, fun, underground culture, societal challenges, local initiative, and hidden gems. So, be prepared for a flexible itinerary and new experiences each time.
