Trip Destinations » Bucharest
Bridging the gap between East and Western Europe, Romania's vibrant capital city, Bucharest, represents a melting pot of cultural influences. Previously nicknamed "Little Paris" as an homage to the prevalence of French architecture, Bucharest is widely renowned as a rapidly evolving modern European city, the remnants of its recent Communist past having all but faded into the lively hub of culture and entertainment.
Buzzing and teeming with life, Bucharest has established itself as a top destination for those who enjoy absorbing the city's cultural attractions by day and celebrating and socialising in one of the many trendy bars and clubs by night.
The city is thriving with culture, history and arts, attracting major international theatrical and operatic acts each year as well as containing some fascinating examples of architecture and some interesting pieces in the Art and Natural History Museum. The vast People's Palace and the Romanian Athenaeum located within the old district are also well worth a visit. Organised activities in Bucharest include walking tours, visits to the People’s Palace and an outing to the Romanian Peasant Museum. See below for more information and prices.
If desired, it is possible to add additional nights in Bucharest to your package. This option might be attractive to clients needing to adapt their package in accordance with arrival and departure dates as well as those who simply want an extra day to explore the city.
