Private Tour of Jewish Bucharest

About this activity

Enjoy a private walking tour of Jewish Bucharest with a specialized guide. Discover impressive synagogues and temples, walk around the old Jewish neighborhood and explore a more remote landmark: the oldest Jewish cemetery in the city.

You'll also get to see iconic monuments built by Jewish architects, while your guide will share with you key facts about the history of the community in Romania, from the 16th century to the migration waves 'Aliyah' from the communist time.

It's the complete tour of Jewish Bucharest, a city where 10% of the population was Jewish in the dawn of the Second World War. This is the perfect tour for history enthusiasts and curious travelers.
