Bucharest by bike

Overview

Enjoy the stories of 'Little Paris' in a 2-3 hour bike tour. In the decades since the ’89 Revolution, Bucharest capital city has reinvented itself as a confident and cosmopolitan capital. It has developed a unique personality which has given rise to its own special way of doing things. With chatty locals, great museums, green areas or forgotten industrial places, amazing cafés and restaurants and the overwhelming People’s Palace, we prepare you for a great experience by bike. We have seen the city is changing and progressing, from an old communist town with infrastructure and social problems to a lively European city. We know how much our tourists appreciate to discover the architectural influences, the green quiet areas, the shadows of terraces or the unique stories of this part of Europe. So we have prepared a special tour by bike to show you the old and the new, the good and the bad, the historical and the modern part of the city.
