Tour description

Explore Budapest through its alternative cultures on a 2 hour small-group walking tour of the sights and historical landmarks that other tours rarely show you. Go deeper into Budapest’s art scenes, mural paintings, and statutes and explore the present and future, rather than the past.

Head away from the main tourist hangouts to explore Budapest's Jewish district, where the city’s alternative culture is kicking off.  Learn about, and visit ruined bars and how the city developed after the World War.

We will visit:

  • Main murals in district 7
  • Szimpla Kert ruin bar
  • "colorful city" arts
  • Memorial statues in the Jewish quarter
  • Famous abandoned buildings


Looking forward to seeing you on my tour! :)

We thoroughly enjoyed Zsanett’s tour which she personally has developed. Information was presented in an interesting and fun way with some light humour. All the sights were really fascinating and the two hours went very quickly. We would definitely recommend this tour.

Zanetti was very knowledgeable and imparted the information/history with much affection. The walk was well paced and helped us understand much more about Budapest.

Very fun tour for anyone who wants to go beyond the basics. There’s a lot of beautiful street art in Budapest that ties in with the history and culture of the city.

This tour is perfect for anyone who wants to delve a little deeper into the structure and stories of the city. Zsanett can tell you about the changes in the city from her own childhood and knows a lot of inside information. I would do this tour again!

She was very informative and fun. I loved the treats she brought and gave out and that see brought cards and the Rubik Cube with her as demonstration. She pointed out to places I ve passed many times before but haven't noticed let alone heard the Story about it. It was brilliant to end the tour inside Szimpla kert. She gave very informative answers to questions too. I really enjoyed this special tour.
