8-hour Bucharest wine tour with tastings at LacertA and Budureasca, English sommelier, small group, sub-Carpathian countryside.
“the guide did not manage time between vineyards well, actual wine tasting was shorter than the sommelier history on the vineyard. Because of this poor management lunch was skipped and the guide had a verbal disagreement with the second vineyard sommelier, yet the second vineyard had better time management between the history and the wine tasting”

“This is a great tour away from the crowds in a small group. Laura is a fantastic tour guide and person! I enjoyed conversing with her, I was traveling solo and she was great company. The salt mine is impressive and the lunch at the winery was delicious. They have a large menu with game meat including bear if you are into that sort of thing. Snagov was beautiful and had a very interesting history. It was a great day overall!”
A 2-hour Bucharest tasting pairing five Romanian wines with cheeses, salami, spreads, and zacuscă, guided in cozy Old Town.
“I paid for the wine and food pairing but only received some cubes of cheese with crackers and no other food to pair with the wines. I didn't receive anything with the first wine so asked the sommelier about the pairings and he said he would bring the snacks later so they would last for all of the wines. As he brought the second wine he brought the cheese and crackers. That was the only food I received, not what was advertised when I booked it. I believe I got the experience that I would have received if I'd just booked the wine tasting rather than the food pairing experience…”
