Hello my Future Guest! My name is Noémi and I was born and raised in Budapest, the Pearl of the Danube. I'm fascinated by history, languages and music. I have a degree in French and history. I spent some time in France to work and master my language skills. I have been working as a tour guide for 4 years. I specialized in tours in Budapest and its surroundings. I particularly enjoy walking tours, but I can also arrange a car or a minivan or even a bike to take you on a tour. However, I think it's possible to discover most of the world on foot! Why choose me? I love my city and my country Hungary and I really enjoy sharing my knowledge with visitors. If you are curious about listening to my stories, please don't hesitate to contact me! These tours are flexible and open to everyone. You can have a fully customized experience. Please tell me your special areas of interest. If you join me on my tours, you can learn that most of the people know one particular Hungarian word without even noticing. If you are curious which one it is, take a walk with me! - Professional course for guides in the Hungarian National Museum in 2023 - Professional course for guides in the Basilica of Esztergom in 2022 - Licence to guide in the Dohány Street Synagogue 2021 - Tour guide licence, prepared in 2013 - MA in French, finished in 2012 in PPKE-BTK I am not a driver. I can accompany you in your vehicle or I can arrange for a separate car and driver.

Explore the truth beyond the Communist dictatorship in a half day trip
Overview of your Budapest tour
If you want to discover really original sights from the Communist era, then I welcome you to my tour. I was born as that system was coming to an end, which means I don't have many personal memories. However, as a historian, I have studied a lot about those times and my grandparents lived through that time and have shared their memories with me. Through a historical presentation, I will share how everything worked: the methods and machinations of the Communist dictatorship and the typical Hungarian lifestyle. Was it hard? Was it not? Come and find out! I will share stories of those who tried to voice their opinion of the system and why they were punished, including those who were declared enemies of the people. Wondering what would have happened to them?
