Description

Join me on a fascinating tour through the heart of Budapest!

Together we will explore the most significant landmarks of the city center and delve into various eras of Hungarian history – from the glorious times of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, through communism, to the modern metropolis.

In addition to the well-known highlights like St. Stephen's Basilica or the Parliament, I will also show you the hidden treasures that are often overlooked.

Along the way, you will not only learn exciting historical facts but also discover which cultural values particularly shape the Magyars. To conclude, I will gladly provide you with valuable tips for your further days in Budapest – or even exciting excursions throughout Hungary.

I look forward to showing you Budapest in all its facets!

PRO

Guiding since 2025

Hi, I'm Annette! I'm a tourism graduate, interculturalist, certified tour guide, and passionate globetrotter. For many years, I've worked part-time as a city guide – first in my home country of Germany, and later in Mexico. But for several years now, I've been able to call Budapest my home and look forward to sharing my enthusiasm for this diverse and fascinating city with guests from all over the world. As an intercultural trainer, I'm deeply involved with Hungarian culture and history. On my tours, I not only share fascinating facts, but also offer unique insights into the Magyar way of life – entertaining, interactive, and with a lot of heart. I look forward to showing you Budapest from this diverse perspective!
