Moments to expect in the Bucharest craft beer tour:
Introduction to Romanian craft beers
We start our tour with a popular local street pastry fresh out the oven of a local street vendor - the best in Bucharest - perfect before we start drinking! Our first stop is our favorite craft beer bar on Victory Avenue (Calea Victoriei). Here we indulge with a round of 4 local craft beers and I'll share some details about the history and passion for beer brewing in Romania.
The hippest underground pubs & bars
We continue our walk on Victory Avenue where major landmarks create a mixture of royalty and communist influences that defines the history of Bucharest - of course, I'll tell you more about it! Our next stop is a hidden gem-of-a-bar in a historical location with great atmosphere. We continue our stories about beer brewing and taste the oldest beer brands in Romania!
Vibrant night scene in the ruins of Little Paris
To wrap it up, we stop in an exquisite turn-of-the-century townhouse, lovingly restored but with that irresistible sense of elegant decay so typical of Bucharest. Relax and take in the local atmosphere of this secluded little hideaway, either in the original interior or outside under trees and vines.

Reviews from travellers
I really enjoyed this opportunity to try different beers at places that I wouldn't get to by myself. Kudos to Anita who organises the tours and to Andreea who was the guide on this tour. Thanks also to Romanian Friend where I booked the tour. They have been really helpful and unlike another site where I booked a couple of day trips, Romanian Friend confirmed dates, etc with the tour operators before confirming rather than canceling at the last minute.
This tour was absolutly excellent and the best thing on my Romania trip so far! I had a great time and learned a lot about local beer but also the city. Lots of fun, highly recommend!
