About
No matter what city in the world we visit, we always ask ourselves: How are the people of Budapest similar to us? How are they different? And why? How engaged are they in the life of their city or country? Are they open to other cultures? What about the rights of women or minorities? How good is the education here, and is it affordable? How do young people live here? Because, after all, the city's and country's future will depend on them. This is what our tour of Budapest will be all about.
Not only will we see beautiful architecture, but also luxurious interiors. It's simply unavoidable in Hungary's capital! But most interestingly, we'll visit places overlooked by tourists but loved by locals and expats. These places include galleries, multi-format and ruin bars, a very distinct bookstore, a secret café, and a few adorable vintage shops and courtyards. We'll discover the street art of Budapest. And we'll talk about what it's like to be a Budapest resident in the 21st century.

About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- danielkhKh0 contributionsFun and informativeA wonderful tour, guide approached the topic with sensitivity and passion. But most importantly it was informative and fun!Written September 29, 2024
- ohadb20190 contributionsAvoid this tourThis is a very superficial tour you can easily do on your own , let along find it 30% cheaper if you book it directly with the company . If you are looking for a comprehensive historical background tour , this is NOT it. It’s simply walking through the street and pointing buildings. In fact , our guide not only lack background knowledge, he got some facts wrong . He is sweet and kind but he should not take such responsibility before acquiring more information. So sad to write this but tourist should know what they NOT getting for $300….!Written September 5, 2024

The whole tour was like a journey through time - Mikael told us about history and immediately drew the parallels with today, which helped us understand all the connections of time. As a result, we got not just an informative tour, learning a lot of new and interesting things, but a wonderful experience that felt like walking with an old friend who knows exactly how to engage every single of us individually.
