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! :)

Zsanett showed us the secret places in the neighborhood where murals, graffiti and sculptures were that had meaning and symbolic of the history of the areas. This tour is highly recommended.

Burak was the substitute guide and it was only his second tour! He had great energy and really tried his best to provide a good and informative tour. He took us to some interesting places that I wouldn’t have discovered on my own. Best of luck to him on his tour guide endeavors I’m sure he will be a pro in no time! I do suggest for him to be a bit more interactive with the group but overall a nice tour, i recommend!
