Traditions in Bucharest: Village Museum and Wine Tasting Tour
Ever imagined yourself walking through a medieval village that’s located right in the middle of a city? Join this private guided tour and discover Bucharest’s Village Museum, a time capsule in the heart of an urban jungle. Once enchanted by the folklore and by the eerie looks of the outdoor museum, you will end the tour in style: taste traditional Romanian wines, cheese & charcuterie at one of Bucharest's oldest wine bars located in a century old manor.
“The architecture of a country is, perhaps, the most accurate expression of its history” (M. Cantacuzino). Therefore, we visit the Village Museum. Once you know the history, you have to understand the culture behind it. We believe the easiest way to understand a culture is to sample local food and wines. So yes, after the museum it's time for a wine tasting session! In vino veritas!

Romania is the world’s 12th largest wine producer with over 2000 years of viticulture tradition. We believe that knowledge of a region’s food and wine is intrinsic to understanding its culture. Thus, the next stop after the village museum is at one of Bucharest’s oldest wine bars and one of the first to be reopened afther the 89' revolution.
The wine bar is located right next to Old Town in a century old manor and its traditional architecture, elegant interior and the wine bottles displayed like books on shelves all create a perfect setting for wine tasting.
