Great tour with Marius
Dana_B, May 2023
Our guide Marius was superb! We thoroughly enjoyed learning about the Romanian communist period from someone as knowledgeable as Marius. He was also a very pleasant and enjoyable person. We highly recommend this tour.
Response from Host, Jun 2023
Thank you once again for choosing our tour experience, and for your kind words of appreciation!
Title of program is misleading
Karen_M, Oct 2022
The guide was great but the title does not match what this was- it was a tour on the communism time period in Romania. We learned a lot, but it was not an “investigation”.
Response from Host, May 2023
Thank you for your kind review! The title describes our tour activity, as it is detailed in the itinerary and overview. We visit the most relevant sites in Bucharest connected to the communist period and the Dictator's life, and the travelers are provided with the known and unknown stories using audio-visual testimonies, while at the end, individual printed handouts are given for collection as take-away from the tour. We regret not knowing if you had other expectations as we would have tried to personalize the tour experience further for you. Warm regards! Comrade Marius
Excellent tour and guide
LeeAnn_D, Sep 2022
I wrote a more extensive review for Marius on TripAdvisor for his company Discover Romania Tours. Here, I will say, you won’t regret any tour you book with Marius. He is knowledgeable, friendly, professional, and everything in between. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Marius again.
Response from Host, May 2023
Thank you for both your kind reviews! We are happy to provide and always strive to offer personalized experiences to all our travelers. It's been a pleasure for us too to accompany you during your trip in Romania. We look forward to welcome you back! Comrade Marius
Final days.....

Maurice did a great job combining narrative, slides and video to tell the story of the revolution. Would recommend to those who like history.
Response from Host, May 2023
Thank you! We're so happy to have provided an authentic insight of the life during communism in Romania. Warm regards! Comrade Marius
"Investigative" Time Well Spent
johninnm, Sep 2019
We took this tour on August 31 and found it to be very informative and enjoyable. The guide wove the overall narrative of the events of 1989 into the actual sites involved. The pace was reasonable and the provided written information was pertinent.
Response from Host, Sep 2019
Thank you for your kind review Mr. John. I am happy to have spent valuable time together sharing so many interesting stories together. Looking forward to your return to Romania in the near future! Warm regards, Marius
