Bucharest Travel Tips

Currency.


The Currency of Romania is RON (Romanian New Lei) split into Lei (notes) and Bani (coins). Many travel agencies will tell you to take Euro but this is incorrect, your Euros will have to be exchanged for local currency.
There are many exchanges available, including in Otopeni Airport, with the exchange rate around 4.5 Lei per Euro.
There is no diffrence between Lei, Leu and RON.

Airport Arrival.


Otopenii - Henry Coanda Airport is a large and modern airport situated about 30 mins from the centre of Bucharest.
Outside the airport,(downstairs) you will find the STB bus station, with number 100 departing every 30 mins into the tourist centre of Bucharest, terminating at Unirii Square.
An electronic 'swipe' card system is in operation on board with VISA and Matercard accepted, or tickets are avaliable from the STB office just outside the airport doors, 24 hours a day, purchasd in Lei . The current price from Airport to city centre is 3 Lei. The buses are clean, modern and highly reccomended. Your STB card can be used on STB Buses and Trams across the city.

For more information about the STB click here.

Outside the main exit there are numerous yellow taxis waiting to take passengers into the city. Check prices in advance. English language widely spoken.


Visit Parliament.


The magnificent Palace of Parliament is open daily for visitors, between 9am and 4pm, with an entry fee of 45 Lei, which includes an in house tour and views from Ceaucescu's balcony.

Passport I.D is required for entry and airport style security is in operation at all times. We recommend advance booking to ensure entry, which we are pleased to do for our tour parties.
Entry can take up to 30 mins to pass through security in the summer months.

Bucharest Weather.


Romania has a continental climate. In Bucharest summers are generally very warm to hot, averaging 29C(day) in the summer months of June to September. I always advise tourists to have a botle of water on hand while out in the summer sunshine.
Summer nights are dry and pleasant with temperatures around 25C.

The short Romanian winter can be extremely cold, with the temp dropping to a record -38 in January 2014!

If you require any further information please E-mail me in advance of you trip to Bucharest, I am pleased to answer any questions you may have about your stay in the city.

I look forward to meeting you and showing you the delights of beautiful and historic Bucharest.
