Budapest Like a Local: Private & Personalized Walking Tour (6hrs)

The walking tour with Lorinc gave us an amazing insight into the history of Budapest. His depth of knowledge and understanding of the hidden gems of the city gave us a better understanding of the culture and people of Budapest. He took our input and anded additional insights that we would not have experienced in other tours. It was so good to move at our own pace and fully experience the sights we seeing.

Krisztian was an amazing guide. Our time exploring Budapest was more like two friends having an in depth conversation on many subjects prompted by what we saw. Krisztian is definitely among the very best tour guides I have ever met.

What a fantastic tour we had, Petra our guide was extremely informative and shared her obvious love of Budapest with us. Sadly it was a little foggy when we started so we had to change the plan a little, but she took it in her stride and planned the walk so we got maximum benefit. The tour lasted approximately 3 hours, she took us to all of the sites that we wanted to see, took us to an amazing strudel restaurant where we enjoyed such delights as Apple, cherry and plum strudels, the restaurant was amazing and the toilets were a must see! Petra was very good at passing on her immense knowledge and tested to see if we were listening 😂. I cannot rate this private tour highly enough it was absolutely amazing…a big thank you to Petra from us

This was our first visit to Budapest and although we had swatted up on info from the internet and from our purchased guide book(Marco Polo..concise,very portable and helpful with v good maps) we nevertheless thought it would be money well spent hiring a local host to guide us on our first full day...and so it proved to be. Given we were only in Budapest for a long weekend we did not want to waste time getting "lost" and walking past points of interest in blissful ignorance! We were also looking to get a good orientation of the city prior to exploring it further on our own...and we did. We concentrated on the Pest side of the city for our 6hrs local host guided walk. We had been in email contact with our host, Richard ,prior to the trip and gave him an outline of our "wants." We spent a most enjoyable 6hrs mostly walking, but also for the experience, riding on a tube and a tram ,during which time we were given an excellent introduction to the many sites to see in Pest many of which we'd have missed if not for our host's knowledge. Richard spoke excellent English and proved most knowledgeable and enthusiastic about his city and it's history and throughout the walk was attentive to our needs, checking if the tour was meeting were expecting, which it more than was.The walk also offered numerous opportunities to talk about varied aspect of living in modern-day Budapest. We would recommend Richard as your local host without hesitation. Chris and Lesley.

<p>We had a great time! Maria is very friendly and considerate and was very accommodating with whatever we wanted to do and our timings. It was like having a personal friend show you around the city. She was really eager to make sure we got the most out of our short time in Budapest and covered more than we could have thought possible. A great experience!</p>
