What you get

The self-guided map of Bucharest: 23 places, each with its own story, practical tip and narration. Filter by what you feel like — museums on a rainy afternoon, parks when the sun is out, thermal baths when your feet give up. The old centre walks end to end in a morning; the village museum, Cotroceni and the thermal baths are a metro or a taxi out — most of the distance below is ridden, not walked — so treat this as two unhurried days rather than one long walk.

  • The full write-up for every stop on the map
  • Narration in English, with the transcript
  • Opening hours, what entry costs and the advice for each place
  • Filters by mood: museums, parks, viewpoints, free entry

Before you buy

How long do I have to use it?
It opens the moment the payment clears. One year from purchase, with no subscription behind it and nothing to cancel, so a trip that slips by a month is not a trip you pay for twice.
What if a place is shut when I get there?
Every stop carries its opening hours and its admission rules, taken from what the place itself publishes, and the write-up names the days and the entrances that catch people out. Nothing on the route is timed and no stop has to be taken in order, so a closed door costs you a detour rather than the day.
Is admission to the museums and monuments included?
No. What you buy is the guide, not the tickets. The pages tell you what each place charges and where booking ahead is the difference between walking in and going home. The treasure hunts are a separate case: they are built entirely around places that cost nothing to reach.
