Rote in Budapest! Kommunismus aus der Sicht eines Einheimischen

Join to understand the tough time suffered by the locals under the "reds".

I recently went on a tour with Reds in Budapest focused on the city’s communist era, and I must say, I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed it. Initially, I wasn’t sure I’d be as interested as my friend, who was really excited about the subject. However, thanks to our incredible guide Brigitta, I found myself fully immersed in the experience. Brigitta was fantastic—professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about the history she was sharing. Her deep understanding of Budapest’s communist past, combined with her personal perspective as a local, made the tour both insightful and engaging. It was clear she was committed to not just teaching us facts but also helping us understand the lasting impact of communism on the city and its people. The tour took us through various locations around Budapest, each offering a unique glimpse into the era. Brigitta’s storytelling brought the history to life, and I found myself learning so much more than I expected. The combination of historical facts, personal anecdotes, and visits to key sites made for a truly memorable experience. Even though I went mainly for my friend, I ended up really enjoying the tour and would highly recommend it to anyone, whether you’re deeply interested in history or just looking to explore Budapest from a local’s perspective. Brigitta made all the difference, and it turned out to be an enriching and fascinating way to spend the day.

This tour was amazing! We were looking for an insight on the historical landmarks and events of communism in Hungary and we got exactly that, plus a very interesting perspective of people’s lives during this era. Brigitta was very clear and informative with her explanations, even providing some printed pictures and elements to better understand this era. We were very satisfied with the tour as a whole

The tour was really informative and interesting! I felt like knowing so much more about history in Budapest after joining this tour, and it is nice to hear things from a local perspective. A must go tour if you like history.

The communism tour with Birgitta is great! She knows an incredible amount, includes personal anecdotes in her stories and knows how to tell them in such an exciting way that the whole group kept going right to the end despite the freezing temperatures. An absolute recommendation
