5.00Katy Till was our tour guide on this, our 8th tour of a 4 country trip. It doesn’t get any better than this. She was exceptional, the GOAT (Greatest Of All Tour guides). She was energetic, vivacious, passionate and adaptable, adjusting our tour to take us to places in Pest that were not part of the published itinerary. If you sign up for this tour and are lucky enough to get paired with Katy, you’re in for an unforgettable experience.

5.00Our guide took the time to really explain Budapest without rushing us and made good use of her ipad to show images from history that contrast the city today. The tour was very worthwhile.

5.00We couldn't have asked for a better start to our trip than the Downtown Pest tour with Ballint. Great guide, informed, good company, small group made it easy to have conversations not just a lecture. We knew we made the right choice in 10 minutes flat. We only wished we had a chance to take his communist tour too.
