Outstanding guide who answered questions about everything that I asked him.All of the Churches that we visited were incredible and his knowledge of the art work and meanings was fantastic. As this was a private tour we concentrated on the various religions in Bucharest which I found so interesting. Thank you for a wonderful morning walking and learning about Bucharest.
