Hi, my name is István! I was born and raised in Hungary and I am happy to call Budapest my home for over 10 years now.
I have a huge love for this city and I would like to show you why!
In Budapest everything tells a story.
Being a professional musician and a licensed tour guide combined with a great love for history, I will tell you this story from a totally unique perspective.
I have been to over 40 countries so far myself, I love learning about and experiencing new cultures because I think that’s the best way to broaden our horizon.
That’s why my tours are quite interactive and I highly encourage everyone to participate and ask as many questions as you have. (I might even reward some people from the group! 😉 ) Remember there is no such thing as a dumb question!
So if you’re ready to go on a walk, meet fellow travellers, try some local snacks, take amazing pictures and experience the Pearl of the Danube with a true local, I will be happy to see you on my tours!
Istavan was very polite, the tour was engaging and took us to places I might not have found otherwise. His knowledge was very good such that he answered all the groups questions. He followed up the tour sending us recommendations for activities and the like in the City.
My boyfriend and I decided to take this tour because we wanted to better understand a local's perspective of the food culture in Hungary. We learned so much from Istvan, not just about the food we ate on the tour, but other dishes that are meaningful for Hungarians ( beyond paprikash and goulash etcetc ) as well. Istvan is a super knowledgeable, friendly, professional, and entertaining guide, and I look forward to taking another of his tours when I come back to Budapest someday!
Very nice experience, guide really well versed and kept tour interesting during all time
