We do lots of tours all over- public and private - and this was as good as it gets. We approach cities as though we may never get to visit them again, so we opted for a full day tour. We are also picky about how our time is spent so we customized the day right down to our lunch stop. We asked for a quick meal and Anita had the perfect place at the right time of the tour. We even added 2 people to our group a few days prior which was no problem. Anita was prompt, knowledgeable and friendly, engaging with each person in our group of six. A full day tour can be exhausting but Anita led us thru a combination of subway and bus segments to help us save energy for our night out later. She took pics of us, made suggestions for the rest of our time in Budapest, and even sent us some Hungarian recipes a few days after the tour. Her personal family stories of growing up & living in Budapest really added depth to the historical facts & figures she gave us. Sometimes I won’t bother to write reviews but I was happy to do this one- we feel like we have new friend in Budapest if we ever return!

This was a good introduction to Budapest. A great way to spend our first morning in Budapest. We saw a few of the must see sights and learned a little of the history.

A very interesting and wide ranging introduction to the city of Budapest, exactly what we wanted to help us get our bearings on our first day in the City. Esther was very knowledgeable and we thoroughly enjoyed the tour.

I highly recommend taking this tour, especially if you’re new to Budapest and want to get a feel for the city’s charm. My sister and I spent the afternoon with Anita, and it was like walking the city with an old friend. She’s very warm and personable, and the tour felt effortless. I loved the intimacy of the experience — just the three of us walking and talking, and I feel like we got a real grasp of Budapest, which has helped us plan out the rest of our visit and make the most of out time. Anita also had great suggestions on what to see and restaurants to check out on our own. It was a great experience.

Anita was delightful. She was so knowledgeable and took us to unexpected places we would never have found if we toured on our own. She also gave us phenomenal recommendations for restaurants, public transportation, and other sites to visit during the rest of our stay in Budapest. Anita was relaxed and so hospitable. We are still eating leftover strudel from our tour.
