A NOTE FROM ALISHA & MATT
A few decisions
before you go.
Choose the main visit first, then fit the smaller stops around it.
Alisha & MattSeparate exterior and interior visits.
A Parliament tour needs its own booking and reporting instructions.
Count the airport night honestly.
Add a separate airport stay if a late arrival requires it; Hilton Garden Inn Bucharest Airport is an option.
Choose one evening area.
The old town and Constitution Square need not both become long outings after a transfer.
BEFORE YOU GO

Does this depend on seasonal displays?
