Cruises from Bucharest

7 cruise lines and 21 ships sailing from Bucharest, Romania

Cruises visiting Bucharest

Bucharest is Romania’s capital, where Belle Époque façades stand beside broad boulevards and stark communist-era buildings. Start along Calea Victoriei, then explore the Old Town’s lanes, churches, cafés and 19th-century landmarks. Visit the Romanian Athenaeum, a celebrated concert hall, and the Palace of Parliament, a vast monument to the communist era. Allow time for a meal: Romanian cooking pairs well with the city’s lively café culture.
