Sergiu did a fantastic job and could bring the rich history and buildings of Timisoara to life - concentrating interesting facts and insights into just 2 hours. It was fun learning from him, and he could answer all of our questions. Also he spoke english exceptionnelly well. Thank you again! We can highly recommend it!Alexander_M, review on the listing

Listed as: Timisoara Downtown Dream Tour
An excellent tour! The guide, a special man, with extremely extensive and detailed knowledge. He was very understanding when I forgot the start time of the tour. Unfortunately, even 3 hours are not enough for the multitude of objectives in this beautiful city. We thank the guide for the wonderful time spent together!Mihai, Romania, review on the listing

How We Ranked Them
Every tour on this page is a live, bookable listing. The order comes from two public figures on each one: the average rating and the number of reviews behind it. The two are weighted together, so a perfect score from a dozen reviews does not outrank a slightly lower score from thousands. Listings with fewer than 5 reviews are left out of the ranking.
Prices are the lowest listed price in US dollars and move with the date and group size. This is a comparison of published listing data, not a first-hand review of each tour.
