    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.

  • Insider Perspective on Budapest

    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.

  • Excellent

    Petra was an excellent guide, fun and knowledgeable. We chose the 5:00pm tour, but St. Stephen's Basilica closes at 6 so we were told we needed to reverse the itinerary to make it in time. We didn't see the Jewish Quarter or Simpla Kert, but instead we stopped for strudel. I don't recommend the 5:00pm time, but the tour was excellent.

    Eszter was a wonderful tour guide for our family of 4. The 3-hour walking tour was a great introduction to Budapest. We enjoyed our time with her and would definitely recommend this tour to others!

  • Too much vacant air.

    Walked for miles with 0 communication in between spots. Even ended it early because it was so bad. Good English though when she did talk. And it was only the 3 of us on the tour.
