Timea was an excellent and knowledgeable guide. She tailored the tour to our needs and interests. Everything was presented in an interesting and engaging manner. I highly recommend her tour.

Timea was an absolutely incredible guide! She was so knowledgeable about the history of Budapest as well as the entire country of Hungary. She was so enthusiastic about showing us the sites as well as the hidden gems. We were fortunate to get to spend the 3 half days with Timea exploring the Buda and the Pest sides. Thank you so much!

Timea was one of the best guides with whom we have ever ever had the pleasure of touring. Her knowledge and insights are exceptional, as is her passion for sharing the history of Jewish life in this region. She was a delight to be with and we discussed topics ranging from hidden symbols to architecture and food. Her English is also perfect. Do not hesitate to book a tour with her. We highly recommend.

Timea was an excellent guide through Budapest! We really enjoyed her knowledge and the experiences she shared with us growing up in in the area. He had very valuable insight on life prior to the fall of communism and what life was like. We visited so many great sites and each had a spectacular story behind it. We would highly recommend Timea if you are looking to do a tour in Budapest.

Learning about the Jewish people of Budapest and related sites was extremely enjoyable and enlightening. Timea was a wonderful guide both in her depth of historical knowledge and personal insights and reflection. The tour was so interesting that four hours seemed like just a few minutes. I would highly recommend Timea and this tour to anyone visiting Budapest.

Timea is our new best friend. She was knowledgeable, responsive, professional, and caring - her loves for her people and Budapest shines through, and our day together was a joy. Highly recommended!

Timea was an amazing guide! Besides being extremely knowledgeable, interesting, well spoken and warm, her own life experience and family history made the tour far more personal. We’re so happy we found her online!

Excellent tour - well worth the time and effort in arranging this. Should be a must for all visitors to the city

We spent a total of 9 hrs with Timea over 2 days. The first one in Jewish Budapest and the 2nd a broader view of Budapest peppered with Jewish history. Timea takes you on a historical journey and does so with a unique perspective. She talks broadly but draws on her personal experiences as well as those of her family both during WWII and the Communist era. We were fortunate enough to view sites off the beaten path and had access to sites that most tours likely missed. She was very flexible and allowed us to dictate the pace, while at the same time ensuring we saw as much as possible. She even ensured we sampled several Hungarian pastries. She made our time in Budapest very special and we would recommend her to anyone paying this special city a visit.

We were a family of 5 with only a short amount of time in Budapest and wanted to really get an insider's view of the past and present of Jewish life in the city. Timea was great, she made the tour informative and engaging for the kids and adults. She brought us to the main Jewish landmarks as well as quite a few off the beaten path sites that gave us a true understanding of the ghetto, the impact of the war and communism on the city, as well as some of the recent renewals that are developing. I had done some reading on the history of Budapest before the trip and found that Timea really brought the information alive. We found the planning of the tour to be quite easy and the actual tour was flexible (it was hot that day) and very enjoyable for the entire family. Highly recommend!

We were a party of 4 who were privileged to have Timea as our guide. She is a passionate and knowledgeable narrator and historian. Her personal stories added authenticity to the experience and her ability to recreate the events was remarkable. Besides the focus on the Jewish history of Budapest (and to Hungary), we experienced Hungarian street food, ate Flodni and went into a ruin bar. The time flew by. I can recommend Timea without any hesitation. She made our trip to Budapest memorable.

My husband and I were lucky enough to spend five days in Budapest this August. By far the smartest thing we did was to begin our visit with a half-day walking tour with Timea. Our experience began before we even left home, as Timea communicated with us by email to get to know us and our interests. She met us at our accommodation in the morning and we walked and talked our way around Pest, seeing and learning about things we would never have found on our own. We ducked into passages and courtyards as Timea shared her experiences and her love of the city. This was the most personal walking tour we have ever been on, and it truly feels like we have made a new friend. The rest of our visit was made much richer thanks to our time together. Thank you, Timea!

A must while you visit Budapest. Timea shares her deep and personal local knowledge to provide you the best walking tour over the Jewish Quarter.

I’ve taken many walking tours, but none were as special as the one with Timea. Her knowledge, attention to detail and engaging personality made this visit to Budapest’s Jewish Quarter so memorable. She was able to point out small details, remnants of a once thriving community, that I had walked by blindly for days. Her personality led to three hours or non-stop conversation; I only wish I had more time to dig deeper into Budapest’s Jewish history. If you visit this city and have any interest at all in its Jewish history, make sure to call Timea; it will be the best decision of your trip.
