          Tamas was a great tour guide
          Excellent tour with Tamas, so knowledgeable and personable. Try the Langos - it’s delicious. Tamas spoke great English and was able to answer all our questions and gave top recommendations of other places/restaurants to visit in Budapest.

          Wine, history, and excellent tour guide!
          Absolutely loved this tour. I ended up being the only one who signed up, so it was just me and the tour guide! Eliz was great, she’s so knowledgeable of the city and taught me so much and was a great photographer! The vibe is definitely more causal and low key and not a pub crawl. The experience focused on the history of the bars and the city, rather than focus around alcohol. I was very pleased with the experience and would do it again!

          Take this tour
          Our tour with Daniel was absolutely incredible. He was very friendly and gave us a lot of information and interesting facts about Budapest and Hungary. He was very passionate about his profession and nationality. There is no better way to see this gorgeous city. 100% recommended!

          Interesting day in Budapest
          Daniel was our guide and he was amazing!! With great explanations about hungarian history, food, architecture, folklore, and much more. We have visited the most important sights in Budapest, but he also led us into smaller alleys and streets to entertain us with urban legends. The history of Hungary was brought to life for us over the course of the day interlaced with discussions about university, night, and everyday life in Hungary. Very well done!

          Collection of bars in an abandoned building
          Enjoyed it to bits. Collection of different bars with reasonable rates attracting an international crowd. At times you can feel lost because it’s always so crowded and and there are just too many places to explore

          a wonderful day in Budapest
          This was one of the best tours we took during our stay in Budapest. We met our guide, Daniel in our hotel and then he took us for to the Heroes square. Then we took the old metro back to the restaurant, where we had a wonderful lunch with hungarian goulahs. We finished in the Buda area after an amazing day.

          Fantastic tour of ruin bars
          Georgia was absolutely lovely. She was very knowledgable, friendly and looked after everyone. She showed us the ruin bars, explained the history, got us drinks and food and taught us a little Hungarian. Would 100% recommend her tour.

          Excellent guide in Budapest
          Daniel is an excellent guide - not only is he well- informed and accommodating but he’s able to read the group and adjust and he’s funny in a dry-witted wayand so patient. Will definitely be recommending to any one going to Budapest.

        Our guide Danny was personable and very knowledgeable. The Royal Palace, Matthias Church and Fishermans Bastion were impressive on their own, and there were spectacular views of the Pest side of the city. There was a lot of territory to cover and Danny was very patient with me because I was not moving well. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed the tour.

        First time to Hungary and was not prepared for the absolute depth of information provided in our walking tour of the Budapest castle. Rebekah was our guide and provided extensive insight into Hungarian history and insight as it relates to the tour sites. Definitely recommend.

        Daniel was our Tour Guide. His mastery of Hungarian history, culture, religion and mythology was very impressive and quite thorough. His English is fantastic and was able to tell us the great history of Hungary from the steppes to today. We would highly recommend this company and you should ask for Daniel.

        Great tour! Daniel was an amazing guide, perfect english, funny and informative. Our tour was very well-paced. We loved the personal touch of a private tour and it was great to have someone pick you up from the hotel. We used public transportation which in Budapest is one of the best I we have ever experienced. Definitely worth it and strongly recommended!

        Rebekah was our tour guide and had a strong knowledge of Hungarian history. We learned so much! She picked us up at our hotel which is 20 minutes outside of downtown and we took public transport to the buda side. We really enjoyed this private tour and the opportunity to spend time with a native Hungarian. She was great about answering all of our questions.

        Peter was one of the friendliest and most knowledgable tour guides we have ever met. We visited 3 countries this time we traveled to Europe and this tour was definitely the best. The tour is very well paced and since it was only us on the tour, Peter tailored it to our interests. Amazing stories and beautiful buildings. Thank you for the experience!

        This was the first tour we took upon our arrival to Budapest. Our tour guide, Judith, met us at our hotel and showed us how to use the public transportation system (so useful). The tour was a wonderful overview of the important sights to be seen in Budapest. Lastly, she took us to the Market Place and indicated which food stand sold an authentic Hungarian meal. She also pointed out some exclusive Hungarian items in the Market.

        I would highly recommend this walking tour. Having never taken part in a private tour I wasn’t sure what to expect but it was fantastic. Daniel our guide was very knowledgeable, friendly and fit the tour around our interests. It was the very best way to start our Budapest stay.
