Kommunistiske Budapest vandretur
Beskrivelse
Med en historiker hjælper denne 3 timers vandretur med at tage fat på "goulashkommunismen" i Budapests årtier under totalitarisme, det bløde diktatur, hvor ungarerne havde visse friheder i bytte for lydighed mod store problemer. Lær hvorfor, Ungarn blev kaldt "den lykkeligste barak i Sovjetblocket" for alle de lidelser, Budapests borgere havde under det kommunistiske regime.
Turmuligheder
Rejseplan
Rejser med metro til Kossuth Square foran parlamentet, udforsker vi monumenter fra revolutionen i 1956, før vi fortsætter til Liberty Square, hvor vi diskuterer aspekter af den kolde krig før den amerikanske ambassade, monumentet til den sovjetiske hær, statuen af Ronald Reagan og et atomværn.
Vi afslutter uden for Terrorens Hus, det imponerende museum i det tidligere hovedkvarter for de kommunistiske efterretningstjenester med en plade af Berlinmuren foran. (Selvom udstillingen indeni ikke er inkluderet i turen, er dette det perfekte slutpunkt for dem, der er interesseret i at dykke dybere ned i Ungarns kolde krigsoplevelse)
Kigger vi forbi det tidligere Folkestadion (nu Puskas Fodboldstadion), hvor klassiske socialistiske realistiske statuer stadig står, kan vi udforske den hårdhændede propaganda, som regimet favoriserer.
Oplev Ronald Reagan-statuen og den ungarske følelse af forpligtelse over for denne amerikanske præsident for hans bestræbelser på at bringe jerntæppet ned.
Udforsk Bem József-pladsen, hvor den første store demonstration af 1956-oprøret startede. På pladsen ligger også et kaffehus, der har bevaret sit originale interiør fra 1960'erne.

Being good walking shoes, some water and be ready to learn much about communism in Hungary. A great way to learn so much so quickly.
Thank you for taking the time to review. We're proud to work with such terrific guides. Hope to see you again on Insight Cities tours in Berlin, Prague, Vienna, and Salzburg.
My husband and I did this tour with Andras, and it was absolutely incredible. Andras is so knowledgeable about Hungary's history with communism, and told us about his own first-hand experiences living under that regime. He was super personable and he added a ton of color to the city. This was our first booked event in Budapest and we were so lucky to get such an amazing view and history of the city from this remarkable guide, I highly recommend it!
Thank you very much for your review. We're so glad you had a fantastic time with Andras. Hope to see you on another Insight Cities tour in any of our cities - Budapest, Berlin, Prague, Vienna, & Salzburg.
We had a brilliant day with Andras- he was a Superb guide- full of insights & knowledge. We had good discussions & conversation over a range of key moment in Hungarian history. He answered our questions with a wonderful depth of knowledge and detail. A really great tour - Thankyou
Thanks so much for your kind review. Hope to see you on another Insight Cities tour in Vienna, Prague, Budapest, Berlin, or Salzburg.
This was the best tour we had during our trip. Our tour guide, Balint Tamas was exceptionally knowledgeable and entertaining. So much of the experience in Budapest revolved around understanding the turbulent recent history and Balint laid out the story in a clear and understandable way. He brought books with illustrations showing the historical events that took place at the sites he took us to. He was well prepared, an expert in the history and made the tour fun. Can't recommend this highly enough.
Hi Lawrence, Thank you for leaving this kind note about Balint's tour! He's such a great guide. Glad you enjoyed your tour with him. Hope to see you on our other tours in Vienna, Salzburg, Berlin & Prague. All the best, Insight Cities
Hey there ;-) We just finished this great tour with the perfect guide Balint ! We are on a fanily vacation (age from 18 to 53) and Balint managed to cater all our needs and was very captivating and entertaining tour. He walked with us through sights of Budapest, we would never have seen without him, showing us a completely new part of Budapest and opening our horizons. After the tour we can say with much confidence that it is a must do and should be added to your To Do immediately!! 12/10 stars!!
Fascinating tour of Budapest! Andras was so informative about the city’s and country’s complex history and tailored the tour to suit our main interests. We learnt and saw so much.
We're so pleased you enjoyed the tour! Hope to see you on Insight Cities tours again in Budapest, Vienna, Salzburg, Prague and Berlin. Safe travels.
Hugely informative tour which gave us a real flavour of the rich history of Budapest. Andras, our guide, was first-rate and hugely knowledgeable. Highly recommended.
We had a fantastic tour!!! Balin was our guide and he was absolutely incredible. He had a great breadth and depth of knowledge and presented the information thoughtfully. He really helped us gain greater insight into this portion of Hungary’s history. Ask for Balin for a tremendous experience!!
Thanks so much for the great feedback. We're glad you enjoyed it and we hope to see you on Insight Cities tour in our other cities -- Prague, Vienna, Berlin and Salzburg. Safe travels!
The tour was simply awesome! We played a kind of "follow the historic tracks" game while walking through the monuments of the city, which I found really interesting. The guide was also very knowledgeable and replies to any question regarding the topic.
Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and showed us sites we didn't even know existed. She did a great job at helping us feel what living under communism was like
