The two biggest problems in my life are, that I was born too soon to become a space-cowboy and too late to become a roman legionary soldier. Since Tour guiding was the closest profession to both of these above mentioned things, I became one. Although I finished the university as a communications expert and journalist in Hungary, it seems they did not prefer my honesty, so I didn't have too many prospects in that field. Without a clue of what to do next, I embarked on a journey to find some answers. I soon found my ambition in Tour-guiding and ended up working on a cruise ship, then as a freelancer tour-guide, and then as an adventure tour-guide in Norway. I've been working in the tourism industry since 2012 and ever since, it''was my dream to create an authentic company of my own and to show the beautiful things of my home country. My travels took me to more then 40+ countries. [And I still have both of my kidneys] Sadly during my journeys, I have discovered that out of 100 companies 99 are simply tourist traps, who scam their customers with some fake "experience". But I also saw, that the authentic and quality tour operators are the longest lasting companies with 20+ years. I aspire to become like that 1 in 100 companies. I believe in win-win situations. I'm a social guy. I like to be around people and to show them around. I like to have deep and honest conversations about things and I love to meet some truly amazing guests. There is nothing that you cannot talk about with me. I like this job so much, that I would even do this job for free, but since I cannot buy food with respect, love, or honesty, I do need something more tangible. Anyways…why are you wasting your time reading about me? Go book a tour and we will have all the time in the world to get to know each other and this beautiful Country.

Discover YOUR Budapest like a local
Overview of your Budapest tour
In Budapest there is something for everybody, but this is also why it is easy to get lost with all the opportunities. To tell you, that I can show you all the gems of Budapest within one day would be a lie. What I can do with this one day is to show you all the "must see" things there are in Budapest and see some of the hidden gems, that peak your personal interest. As an experienced guide with over 10+ years of experience I can shed light on secrets and show you stuff that no guide-book or app can show you ;) . Are you interested in Roman legacy? Jewish heritage? Medieval ages? Gastronomy? Whatever your needs, I'll find the best places for your interest. I will give you all the knowledge a local professional can give you. All the insights, tips & tricks to get by as a pro. I'll also give you plans for the days to come, so you can dive into the city life, just like a local even after I'm not there.
