Dracula. A labyrinth of interconnected tunnels underneath the city. Ghost stories. Plenty of skeletons hidden in plain sight. The plague. A very amorous prince. Kinky prostitutes. A king with a taste for the occult. The eternal horrible life of orphans. Crazy Balkan superstitions.

All enriched with loads of historical information, fun facts and interesting observations, that will ensure you a great time during this tour. If you're bored of the same tour of a city center you probably had in any foreign city you've been to, than try this tour.

Plus, our tour is great for kids. Or for your average not-interested-in-anything teen. The weird ideas, the oddity of other people`s beliefs and the superstitions of Romanians might just make it the perfect tour for your entire family.

The tour starts from Mo day to Friday at 10.00 and 13.30 (1.30 pm).
