Enigmatic reminiscences of Communism

Thanks to our guide, Tamas, we had a great, unique time. We visited Memento Park by car. It is really out of town. Tamas told us many interesting aspects of the life in the communist period of the country. We had questions and we received concise answers. We mounted another hill by car and took a rail journey with the Chlidren's Railway. Really a unique adventure. I recommend this tour to those interested in this period of history.

Thank you for the great experience.

We had an exciting tour with Tamas. It is recommended to those who want to exprecience an in-depth dimension of the communist period of the country in this time-capsule Memento Park. Tamas shared us his knowledge with a great patience as we had many questions. We arrived just on time to mount on the communist era railway travel in the hills. Very different to the inner city walks, really. I would give 5++ stars to this unconventional tour.

This tour is really unique in its kind. A group of three attendees were guided by Tamas without any time-pressure and with great care. We travelled by his minibus. Public transport travelling would consume the day. The Memento Park is out of town. We received a professionally built flow of information. Tamas knows much more though. We had time to ask questions. Altogether we spent one and a half hour here. The next spot was real excitement travelling by train in the forest. That is somehow a functioning museum of a disappeared era. After a short walk we set back to the car. Tamas put us to inner city within 20 minutes. We were tired but energized! What a different view of the country after this trip! Absolutely recommended to open-minded history-lovers.

This visit took me out of the city to explore its past first through memorials and then a visit to the children’s railway and a walk leading to an amazing view of Budapest. Thomas gave excellent information and was able to answer lots of questions. He shared his own experience of growing up in Budapest and how things have changed over time. This is a very different kind of tour and I thoroughly recommend it. You will need to pay a small amount to enter the memorial park and also if you wish to ride on the children’s railway. This was a time exceptionally well spent and is a very different kind of tour to the norm with a much more personal touch and in a very small group.
