“Our guide, Mihai Vataselu, is intelligent, personable, knowledgeable, and entertaining. He is one of the best tour guides we have had the pleasure to meet. His knowledge and English skills made our tour of the Village Museum in Bucharest much more than just seeing old buildings. We learned about the area of the country and the how and why the people living there created the homes they did. Mihai selected a boutique winery shop for our last stop where we sampled four delicious Romanian wines and a charcuterie plate of meats and cheeses while learning the history of Romanian wine making and getting to know each other. We highly recommend…”

Bucharest: Romanian Wine and Food Pairing Experience

6.Romanian Wine and Food Pairing Experience

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 23 reviews · 2 hours · from $62

Meet in Bucharest’s Old Town for five Romanian wines, including two whites, a rosé, and two reds, paired with cheeses, salami, bread, spreads, and zacuscă. English and Romanian guides explain local grapes and winemaking. Darius and Marius have led tastings, though food service may need confirming at the start.

“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…”
