Szia, welcome to Budapest! I'm a local, professional driver-guide and art historian in Budapest. I was born in 1968 and I started to work as a tour-guide in 1986. I studied - among others - history of art, I like history, art and literature. To be a tour-guide is more than a job for me, a mission and a passion to show you not only the general sights you could see from each bus, but It's important you to understand the background, the history, the soul of Hungarians, to discover our special culture, the works of art, the beauties and the gastronomic particularities. My private tours are personal, flexibile and customized. You have found your tour-guide if you are especially interested in art, architecture, history and politics! Come and discover Budapest with me!

Our recent tour with Ferenc was perfect. His vehicle was very comfortable. He ensured we got to experience Budapest from many different perspectives, and we never spent too much time in the car or on foot. We really enjoyed all the sights and all the information he shared. Would highly recommend him as a guide.

We rated Ferencz with five stars. Ferenc met us on time at the agreed location and dropped us off there at the end. In between, he showed us the highlights of several major sites in Pest as we had requested. His commentary on the sites, historical events, and the significance of them, was spot-on, well-paced, accurate, and delivered calmly and with authority. He answered our questions well and patiently. We toured sites on foot about half the time, working in the cultural and societal importance of events, memorials, monuments, and buildings. We were well satisfied with all aspects of his tour.
