Frequently asked questions
How many days do you need for Bucharest?
For the essentials — the Old Town, Calea Victoriei, the Palace of Parliament and a few museums — two full days are enough. With 3–4 days you also fit neighbourhoods like Cotroceni, Herăstrău park and the nightlife.
How do I get from Otopeni airport to the centre?
The simplest options are bus 100 Express (Piața Unirii ↔ OTP, ~3 lei, contactless onboard) and the CFR train Gara de Nord ↔ Henri Coandă (~6.50 lei, ~20–25 min). Taxis/Bolt and private transfers are also available.
How much do the metro and public transport cost?
The metro is 5 lei per trip (2026). STB surface transport (bus, tram, trolleybus) is paid with the Activ/Multiplu card or contactless. See our metro and public-transport pages for details.
Is Bucharest safe for tourists?
Yes, it's generally safe, on par with other European capitals. Watch for pickpocketing in crowded spots and avoid unlicensed taxis — use apps (Bolt, Uber) or booked cabs.

The Old Town and Universitate for nightlife and walkable sights; Calea Victoriei for elegance and museums; Dorobanți–Floreasca for restaurants and relative quiet. See the stays map on each page.
