Attila was a very good guide. He managed the tour to our requests and we saw some "off the beaten path" areas that really made the day !!

Tour was great. Balazs showed us Budapest through his eyes. We not only saw what we wanted to see, but got a native’s perspective on the history & events that helped shape many of those highlights.

Balazs did an excellent job guiding my sister and I on a personalized tour of Budapest. He is amazingly knowledgeable about all aspects of past and present Budapest and was able to put together a tour that covered all the main sites we requested plus several others. I would highly recommend Balazs as a Budapest tour guide for individuals or groups. He is very friendly, speaks excellent English and is willing to readily adjust the tour as the day progresses in order to meet your needs.
